The Architecture Diagnostic
Athree-weekreadonwhattopreserve,decommission,andre-author.
The wedge engagement. OM holds your operating model against the four structural moats and returns a prioritized re-architecture plan.
What it is
A structured, three-week diagnostic that names — across the four moats — what compounds in your current model, what now drags, and what must be rebuilt AI-Native. The output is a sequenced plan, not a deck.
Who it's for
Founders and CEOs of $20M–$150M B2B companies whose AI pilots stalled, whose growth depends on trust and expertise, and whose leadership team is ready to do structural work — not another readiness review.
The four moats examined
- 01
Relevance
Is the business model itself exposed, or defensible?
- 02
Decision speed
Is authority clean enough that AI creates speed, not latency?
- 03
Capital & pricing
Does the way you charge still assume human labor as the unit?
- 04
Reputation & coherence
Does the signal between what you say, do, and decide still hold?
How the method works
OM looks at each part of your operating model — a role, a pricing model, a workflow — and sorts it into three: Preserve what compounds, Decommission what drags, and Re-author what needs rebuilding AI-Native at the core, usually pricing or decision speed.
Deliverables
- · AI-Native Shift Map — the structural moves your model now requires
- · Decision-Speed Audit — where authority creates speed or latency
- · Preserve / Decommission / Re-author read on 5–7 elements
- · Prioritized 12-month roadmap, sequenced by impact
- · 90-minute readout with the leadership team
Timeline
Three weeks, end-to-end. One kickoff, two working sessions, one readout.
What it excludes
Implementation, build, vendor management. The Diagnostic returns a clear read and the sequence. Execution stays with your team or follow-on engagement.
Price framing
Fixed fee, scoped at intake. Quoted against the engagement, not by the hour.
