Hands-on support
Someone who has run organisations, available to drive the projects, or any other topic that needs a steady hand.
The presenting symptom: “I need someone.” Or: “the roadmap will not execute itself.”
This solution has two lives. After an audit, it drives the projects the audit surfaced, in roadmap order. On its own, it takes one topic and moves it forward. In both cases, every month opens with what must move and closes with what moved.
How it unfolds.
The topic, the format in days per month, and the person: Elie or a consultant from the collective, named before we start.
The month’s objective, in writing: what must move, and how we will know.
The work moves: processes rebuilt, tools put into production, committees prepared, indicators tracked.
What moved, what is stuck, what comes next. If the objective is met and nothing follows, the support stops there.
What hands-on support takes on
After a mission, or on its own.
- Driving the projects an audit surfaced, in roadmap order
- Rebuilding processes, and the change management that goes with it
- Putting tools into production and connecting them
- Tracking the indicators, month after month, until the effects show
- Running a tool project or a software migration, from requirements to go-live
- Running a tender: requirements, consultation, comparison grid, negotiation
- Taking over a struggling project and putting it back on its feet
- Preparing and running a committee on one specific topic, with the numbers behind it
- Providing short interim cover: operations lead, project lead, management accounting
- Building a function that does not exist yet: steering, prospecting, grant tracking
What hands-on support is not
It is not outsourced production. It is not a permanent replacement for an employee. And it is not day-rate staffing with no written objective: every month opens with what must move and closes with what moved.
- Three formats: 2, 4 or 8 days a month, depending on the size of the work
- Monthly, stop at the end of any month
- The person is named at scoping: Elie or a consultant from the collective
What you walk away with.
- The month’s written objective. set on day one, reread on the last day
- The monthly progress note. what moved, what is stuck, what comes next
- The projects driven. processes rebuilt, tools in production, committees prepared
- The indicators tracked. month after month, until the effects show
The fact sheet.
The scope is set at scoping. The full pricing grid lives on the pricing page.
You are not buying a report. You are buying someone who has run organisations, coming in to move the topic forward.
The questions we get asked about this solution.
No. Day-rate staffing sells days with no objective. Here, every month opens with what must move and closes with what moved, in writing. If the objective is met, the support stops.
Elie or a consultant from the collective, chosen for your sector and your topic, named at scoping. Never a stranger who shows up once you have signed.
No. The support is monthly, and it stops at the end of any month you decide. What makes it last is the month’s result, not the contract.
What can follow.
