FAQ
Questions buyers should resolve before intake.
Is this staff augmentation?+
No. The role is senior operational intelligence advisory, governance discipline, and sponsor visibility after a diagnostic or build.
Can it start without prior TKO work?+
Only in narrow warm-referral situations where the operating problem is already clear. The normal path is diagnostic or build conversion.
What is excluded?+
Hands-on implementation, direct employee management, legal or regulatory advisory, and software development are not included unless separately scoped.
Operational Recovery Assessment
The right starting point is still the Operational Recovery Assessment.
Build and advisory work follow when the operating problem is already visible. The Diagnostic creates the evidence base for that decision.
