Transformation Governance Health Review

Independent confidence in the governance around a live transformation.

A major ERP, cloud, AI, or technology transformation is underway. Before leadership relies on it, the governance surrounding it deserves an independent look.

Status reports say the initiative is on track. Leadership still asks the harder question underneath them.

Is the governance system capable of recognizing, escalating, deciding, and responding to conditions that could materially affect the transformation?

When to use it

Not every transformation needs recovery. Most need confirmation.

A Health Review is not a diagnosis of trouble. It is an independent check, run while an initiative is proceeding normally, that confirms the governance surrounding it can be trusted to catch problems early, escalate them appropriately, and support the decisions leadership will eventually have to make.

If conditions have already moved beyond acceptable performance or risk thresholds, the more direct engagement is Technology Transformation Recovery. The Health Review is the earlier, lower-friction check.

What we review

Every review examines the mechanisms that govern the initiative, not the initiative itself.

  • Governance structure and decision rights
  • Executive reporting and information flow
  • Risk identification and escalation
  • Independent assurance
  • Vendor governance
  • Change governance
  • Intervention authority

How a review runs

Four phases, scoped to the size and stakes of the transformation.

01

Document Review

Charters, reporting, risk registers, vendor agreements, and steering materials against what governance is actually doing.

02

Selected Interviews

Executive sponsors, steering committee members, and program leadership, to understand how decisions are actually being made.

03

Governance Evaluation

Structure, decision rights, reporting, escalation, vendor governance, change governance, and intervention authority, assessed against the conditions the initiative actually presents.

04

Executive Briefing

Findings and prioritized recommendations delivered to executive leadership and, where scoped, the board.

What you'll receive

Confirm, don't assume

Confidence should rest on evidence, not on status reports alone.
