Independent business & technical analysis

Clear requirements. Workable solutions. Reliable delivery.

I help organisations untangle complex change: mapping processes, defining requirements, getting solutions ready for go-live and keeping stakeholders aligned through delivery. Clear thinking, honest updates and documentation your team can own.

Most change doesn't fail on technology.

It fails on unclear requirements, readiness gaps and decisions nobody owns. I help teams fix those, from process mapping and requirements through to release planning and go-live.

  • Business process analysis

    Map how work actually happens today, find the friction, and define a clearer future state people can adopt.

  • Technical requirements

    Turn business needs into testable, unambiguous requirements and acceptance criteria that delivery teams can build from.

  • Solution readiness

    Check that people, process, data and technology are genuinely ready before go-live, not just on the plan.

  • Implementation support

    Stay close to delivery: triage questions, resolve gaps and keep scope honest as the solution comes together.

  • Release planning

    Sequence change into releases that are realistic, well communicated and low-risk to deploy.

  • Test environments

    Plan and coordinate environments, data and access so testing reflects the real world and doesn't stall.

  • Stakeholder coordination

    Keep business, technology and suppliers aligned with clear decisions, owners and follow-through.

How I work

Every engagement ends with a clear outcome.

A decision made, a requirement agreed, a release landed. Agreed scope, honest progress and a clean handover.

  1. Listen

    Understand the goal, the people involved and how the work happens today.

  2. Define

    Agree the scope, the requirements and what "done" means, in writing.

  3. Deliver

    Stay close to the work, keep decisions moving and report progress honestly.

  4. Hand over

    Leave documentation and knowledge your team can own once I've gone.
