Operator depth, not theory.
Led by a founder who has run complex operational and customer workflows firsthand. Every recommendation is informed by having shipped, supported, and scaled the systems we discuss.
Innovia Fit Sprint
Fit for Digital. Fit for AI.
A productized advisory engagement, sold at fixed price and fixed scope, that delivers a single outcome: a sponsor who can make a defensible, board-grade decision they could not have made before the sprint.
What makes it different is the combination. Top-tier consulting discipline (MECE structure, sourced numbers, pyramid principle, no rhetorical claims) on every deliverable you receive. Working software you log into in week two, configured in your colors with a sample of your data. Fixed price, fixed scope, fixed four-week calendar, no scope creep dressed up as discovery. Led by an operator who has shipped, supported, and scaled complex operational and customer workflows firsthand.
Twelve to fifteen deliverables you keep, in English, board-ready. One decision moment at the readout, three states only: yes, no, or a named deadline. The Innovation Partnership is pre-teased throughout, ready if you decide to proceed.
What it is
Led by a founder who has run complex operational and customer workflows firsthand. Every recommendation is informed by having shipped, supported, and scaled the systems we discuss.
By week two you log into a working platform configured in your colors, with your products and a sample of your data. The readout walks through it live, not from screenshots.
A productized engagement, not an open-ended consultancy. You know exactly what you pay, what you get, and when you get it. Scope is locked in the Statement of Work. Change orders are billed transparently at a day rate.
How it works
Intake
Week 0
Statement of Work and mutual NDA signed. Sponsor and alternate sponsor confirmed. Scope locked. Five to eight stakeholder interview slots booked. Data drop confirmed.
Discovery
Week 1
Five to eight interviews, capability assessment, process maps, gap report with sourced numbers. Mid-sprint synchronization with the sponsor at the end of the week.
Design
Weeks 2-3
Target operating model, future-state journeys, capability roadmap prioritized in waves. Branded working tenant configured with your products and a sample of your data.
Decide
Week 3
Executive memo, board deck, business case with sensitivity on the three variables that matter most. Decision pre-read with the sponsor three days before the readout.
Readout
Week 4
Two hours on-site. Live walkthrough on the branded tenant. Innovation Partnership proposal presented. Explicit decision moment: yes, no, or named deadline.
What you walk away with
Board-ready
One to two pages. Situation, complication, recommendation, ask. Designed for a chief executive to read on a phone.

Fifteen to twenty-five slides, every title a takeaway. Used as the basis for your next board paper.
CFO-grade
Narrative plus spreadsheet. NPV, payback, sensitivity on the top three variables, risk-adjusted scenarios.
Cross-functional
People, process, technology, data, governance. Decision rights named, transition outline included.
Prioritized waves
Twelve to thirty-six months. Each initiative with effort, impact, dependencies, and owner.
Logged in by week two
A configured instance of the Innovia platform in your colors, with your products, that you can log into during the readout and keep exploring for 90 days after.

Common questions
Chief operating, information, or risk officers at organizations that run complex operational and customer workflows across Europe. The sweet spot is a mid-tier operator facing the same questions as the largest players, with less runway to answer them.
A clear no is a perfectly valid outcome of the engagement, and the deliverables are still yours. The sprint is paid for execution and a defensible decision pack, not for a specific direction. We treat a clear no with the same respect as a clear yes.
Lite is two weeks for prospects who need a fast diagnostic. Standard is three to four weeks and covers most engagements. Premium is six weeks when immediate execution is expected. Scope is fixed at signature and can only be expanded via written change orders at €2,000 per day.
Every engagement is bound by a mutual non-disclosure agreement signed before the sprint begins. We work with anonymized data samples; we do not require access to personal data or live systems. Interview recordings are retained for thirty days after engagement close, then deleted.
If the decision is yes, the Innovation Partnership scoping starts within five business days. The Partnership is a longer engagement that takes the recommendation into execution, sized between €60k and €150k depending on scope. If the decision is no or a named deadline, the engagement closes cleanly with no further outreach unless you reinitiate.
A thirty-minute discovery call is free, with no obligation. We confirm whether a Fit Sprint fits your situation and your decision timeline. If it does not, we say so directly.
