GAC-1B · Strategic Intelligence
Systems Diagnostic
A structured audit of the people, processes, systems, data, decision rights, handoffs, risk, and evidence surrounding a defined business constraint.
SCOPE OF ENGAGEMENT
What is included.
- Stakeholder and authority map
- Current-state workflow and system topology
- Constraint, risk, and decision-debt register
- AI and automation readiness assessment
- Prioritized intervention roadmap
ACCEPTANCE & EVIDENCE
What proves completion.
- Evidence inventory
- Interview and source ledger
- Current-state map
- Ranked findings with confidence levels
COMMERCIAL BOUNDARY
What is not silently included.
A credible consulting engagement is defined as much by its exclusions as its outputs. Anything outside these boundaries requires an explicit proposal or change decision.
- Implementation source code
- Full department redesign
- Managed operations
- Legal or regulatory opinion
AUTHORIZE
Issue a written proposal with deliverables, assumptions, exclusions, timeline, acceptance, and payment terms.
EXECUTE
Collect evidence, conduct the work, preserve decisions, surface constraints, and manage controlled changes.
ACCEPT
Review every agreed deliverable and criterion; return unresolved work instead of disguising it as complete.
PROVE
Deliver the evidence package, decision record, next-action route, and engagement closeout receipt.
Put the real operating context on the table.
The audit asks the questions required to determine fit and scope. Submitting it does not create an engagement or expose production credentials.
