Straight answers before kickoff.

Most rebuilds: 10–16 weeks on site, then a short settle. Cadence-only work can be shorter. End date is in the proposal and defended.

Manufacturing and distribution are the center. Also field-service and multi-site operators where flow and ownership break under volume.

Yes. Named partner leads. No junior-only staffing model.

Sponsor with authority, calendar protection for cadence, willingness to name single owners. Without those three we decline or delay.

No. We may advise how systems should support the design. Process first; tools second. Not an ERP/WMS implementer.

Fixed-scope with clear artifacts and exit criteria. Travel itemized for multi-site. We avoid open-ended linger incentives.

Cadence kit, decision charter, visuals, 30-day self-audit. Optional pulse checks exist; dependency is a failure mode we design against.
