01 / UNDERSTAND / VERENTH SCAN
A scoped, paid assessment connecting changes in the wider world to your organisation’s revenue, people, operations and dependencies.
A CLEAR FIRST COMMITMENT
The Scan establishes what matters, why it matters and which next commitment the evidence supports. Scope, timing and fees are agreed before work begins.
A prioritised view of the external developments affecting the institution, with sources and uncertainty visible.
An initial map of revenue, capabilities, people and dependencies relevant to the chosen question.
Credible options, key assumptions, immediate priorities and a proposed next step with an accountable owner.
WHAT TO BRING
Bring the decision you are facing, the outcome that matters and a sponsor who can provide the relevant operating context. An outline is enough for the first conversation.
The initial enquiry should exclude confidential documents and personal workforce data. Access, confidentiality and the evidence required for the engagement are established together.
You can act on the brief internally, agree a bounded transformation workstream or establish an ongoing review relationship. The next engagement is a separate decision.

Protect delivery while testing an adjacent source of demand.
EXECUTIVE SYSTEMS DIAGNOSIS
Examine one organisation or business unit and one consequential leadership decision. We agree the evidence, interview up to four relevant people and compare two or three credible options for what happens next.
Which strategic commitment should you make next, and what must change for it to become viable?
A system and dependency map, an evidence-linked assessment, an options brief and a recommended first intervention with an accountable owner and a 90-day sequence.
Allow around 10–12 staff-hours across your team and three working weeks after the agreed evidence is ready. Timing, specialist input and fees are confirmed for your scope before work begins.
Explore a three-page sample brief: a recommendation, alternative economic roles, assumptions, economics and accountable next actions.
