What is the outcome from a Diagnostic Engagement?

Once your Diagnostic Engagement is complete, you will receive: 

  • A written and illustrated report in either Notion or PDF format
  • Each business requirement documented as a user story, use case and acceptance criteria
  • A recommended solution for each requirement, including clear process diagrams and workload estimates
  • A presentation of the findings, including a video recording of the session
  • An outline of estimated time required to complete the project and pricing options, should you choose to work with SpotDev.

What happens during a Diagnostic Engagement?

When you commission a Diagnostic Engagement from SpotDev, you'll be allocated a strategist who will take responsibility for identifying your business needs and translating them into action. Over the course of 30 days, your strategist will: 

Diagnostic Process
  • Interview stakeholders: a series of video calls will allow your strategist to understand the details of the project and clearly define what each stakeholder needs from the project for it to be a success.
  • Document requirements: using Notion or a PDF document, your strategist will present the business needs of this project as clear user stories, use cases and acceptance criteria.
  • Solution planning: with the requirements agreed, your strategist will now identify the most effective way to deliver on your business needs. Each solution will be documented in plain English, supported by diagrams to clarify processes.
  • Risk mitigation: no plan comes without risks. Your strategist will evaluate the solutions we recommend, identify the risks and document the control measures that will eliminate or reduce those risks. 
  • Presentation: you'll be involved every step of the way. At the end of the process, your strategist will present the diagnostic report so that your team can identify the next steps. 

If your diagnostic report identifies that SpotDev is not the best organisation to put your plans into action, then we will identify firms that we trust to do a great job of the implementation work. Regardless, your report will be sufficiently comprehensive that a capable team will be able to put the plans into action.
