Barriers to Standardizing

  • barrier1

    Existing Operations

    Custom work requires that partner involvement at many steps. The core business can't suffer while building the new.

  • barrier2

    Market Validation

    Hard to know which element of your existing value is the most marketable and how to distill it down to something discrete.

  • barrier3

    Building Delivery Scale

    Reverse engineering value delivery and delegating critical tasks require a different lens on the business.

  • barrier4

    Selling Value

    The process of selling standard services based on value is significantly different than selling custom work.
