Software Delivery Transformation

Make every release predictable — and keep it that way after I'm gone.

Built on Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD) and a four-layer system-test architecture.

For regulated-industry teams whose releases have become the riskiest day of the month. I don't reorganize your process or your people — I build a real system-test safety net into your system and the architecture beneath it, then hand it back to your team so the confidence outlasts the engagement. It's the difference between hoping a change is safe and knowing it.

How it works

Blueprint → Transformation. The Blueprint maps and prices the work; the Transformation delivers it as advance-billed milestones — the safety net built first, your team's ownership transferred last.

  1. Blueprint

    Map the architecture, price the roadmap

    A standalone, paid diagnostic. I map your current pipeline and system, propose the target pipeline, system, and system-test architecture, and sequence a roadmap that scopes and prices everything below. Yours to keep, whether or not you go further.

  2. Milestone 1

    Pipeline architecture

    The CI/CD foundation the whole safety net depends on — implemented by your team under my oversight, so it's built to the target spec the first time rather than corrected after the fact.

  3. Milestone 2

    Acceptance-test architecture

    The four-layer test harness — DSL, drivers, configurability — proven end to end with one real use case running green. The riskiest, highest-value step: it establishes the pattern everything else replicates.

  4. Coverage milestones

    Coverage scale-out

    Coverage extended in a fixed set of agreed, separately-priced batches — the use cases your Blueprint identifies, highest-risk first. You decide how far coverage goes, and the scope is set before you start, not open-ended.

  5. Final milestone

    Your team takes ownership

    Your developers learn to run, read, debug, maintain, and extend the suite, and adopt ATDD for new work through training and pairing. After the engagement, a light recurring review keeps the practice alive — so the confidence outlasts it.

Investment

Priced by milestone and billed in advance, so you fund value as it lands — never a deadline you pay against. The Blueprint is a fixed fee; every figure below it is indicative until your Blueprint resolves it into a firm, milestone-by-milestone price, before you commit to the build.
