You can’t fix what you can’t see clearly
Most teams know something is off — costs creeping up, releases slowing down, a nagging compliance risk — but don’t have an objective, current-state picture of the whole system. Decisions get made on hunches, and the expensive ones compound.
The 30-Day Reset is a focused data architecture audit that maps what you actually have, surfaces the real risks and costs, and hands you a prioritized plan — so the next six months are spent on the right work.
What’s included
Current-state systems map
A clear picture of your data platform, integrations, and how everything actually connects.
Risk + compliance review
Where HIPAA / GDPR / audit exposure lives, and what to do about it.
Cost & vendor assessment
What you’re spending, where the sprawl and lock-in are, and where to consolidate.
6-month execution roadmap
A prioritized, sequenced plan — by impact-to-effort, not wish list.
What you walk away with
- A current-state architecture map
- A risk and compliance assessment
- A cost and vendor analysis
- A prioritized 6-month roadmap with clear next steps
Frequently asked questions
How is a 30-Day Reset different from an architecture audit?
It is one, with a deadline and a deliverable: a current-state map, a risk and compliance review, a cost and vendor assessment and a prioritized 6-month roadmap, in 30 days. Most audits produce a findings document; the Reset produces a sequenced plan.
What do I need to provide?
Access to the people who know the systems, read access to the platform and its documentation, and about two hours a week of a sponsor’s time. No code changes are made during the Reset.
Who is it for?
Regulated, data-intensive companies that need an objective read on their architecture, cost and risk before committing to a larger initiative, a vendor change or an AI programme.
What happens after the 30 days?
The roadmap is yours. Some teams run it themselves; some continue into the 90-Day Transformation or a fractional CTO engagement. The Reset is written so that any of those works.
Best fit: a regulated, data-intensive company that needs an objective read on its architecture, costs, and risk before committing to a bigger initiative.
