HOW I WORK
Judgement, independent of delivery
Decisions before deliverables
Every engagement is organised around the decisions you need to make: what to build, what to change, what not to build, and how to govern the risk.
Independent of delivery
Advice is not shaped by who implements it. If Webskitters is the right delivery partner I will say so plainly; if it is not, I will say that too.
Evidence over assertion
Findings are tied to what was reviewed: architecture, code, data, process and people. Where something cannot be verified, the report says so.
GETTING STARTED
How engagements begin
01 →
Share the context
Use the form on the relevant service page, or the contact page if you are unsure which fits.
02 →
A focused first conversation
We discuss the decision, the constraints and whether I am the right person to help.
03
A written proposal
Scope, format, involvement and outputs are agreed in writing before any work starts.
NOT SURE WHICH FITS?
Describe the situation.
We can work out the rest.
Most engagements start with a question rather than a service name. Share the context and I will suggest the most useful form of support, including when that is not me.
