21-Day Automation Jumpstart

Know what to fix before you fund the next project.

The 21-Day Automation Jumpstart gives an owner or operating sponsor a current-state view, prioritized risk picture, and 90-day modernization roadmap for one agreed site or process.

Engineers reviewing process drawings and automation priorities

The decision package

Turn scattered concerns into a usable plan.

The Jumpstart reviews the agreed systems, records, project material, and operating knowledge. It turns that evidence into decisions an owner, engineering leader, and vendor can act on.

01

Current state

Map the selected site or process, critical handoffs, dependencies, and knowledge gaps.

02

Risk and options

Record risks and assumptions, compare modernization options, and define decision criteria.

03

90-day roadmap

Prioritize actions, owners, acceptance criteria, and the next evidence needed.

What the work needs

A sponsor, access, and a decision date.

The client supplies a named sponsor, access to agreed records and people, current project material where available, a decision date, and timely review of findings. The schedule starts after required access and materials arrive.

01

Define

Agree the site, process, problem, and boundary.

02

Examine

Review records, systems, interviews, risks, and assumptions.

03

Read out

Deliver the roadmap, options, acceptance criteria, and next actions.

Fit

A clear plan for the next 90 days.

Choose the Jumpstart when the question is broader than one fault or proposal, leadership needs a shared view of risk, or the next 90 days need priorities before capital and vendor work are approved. Implementation or ongoing leadership is separately scoped.

Before we talk

A few practical answers.

Is this an implementation project?

No. It defines the current state, risks, options, acceptance criteria, and roadmap needed to make implementation decisions.

Does the 21 days include site visits?

The delivery and travel plan depend on the agreed scope, access, and operating needs.

What happens after the roadmap?

Your team or vendors can implement it, or DDG can discuss a defined pilot or continuing owner-side leadership engagement.
