Discovery findings

- The processes costing the most time, ranked
One phase at a time. You decide what's next.
Bliq works in gated phases. We start with Discovery, hand you a blueprint that is yours to keep, then build one phase at a time. Each phase is scoped and priced before it starts, and you approve it before we build.

What happens in Discovery?
One to two days with your team. We spend 45 to 60 minutes with each person who touches the process, watch how the work really moves, then come back with clarifying questions on day two. Nothing is designed until we have heard from everyone involved.
Managers know how the process should work. The people doing it know how it actually works. We talk to both, because the mess is in the detail.
We map every system you use today, from the accounting package to the spreadsheet on someone's desktop, and rank the processes costing you the most time.
What's in the blueprint?
A plan you can act on with anyone. It sets out which modules you need, which roles see what, where each piece of data lives, how we move off each current system, and a phased roadmap with a price for each phase. It's yours to keep.
Discovery ends with a blueprint that is yours to keep, whoever builds it. We would rather win the build on merit than lock you in.
You get
The blueprint
- Module map by role
- One source of truth design
- Security and compliance approach
- Migration plan and phased roadmap
How does a phase work?
Each phase is scoped and priced before it starts. You approve it, we build it, and you see it working with your real data. The phase that fixes your biggest pain goes first, so the system earns its keep early and every later phase builds on something proven.
Scope is fixed for each phase. If something new turns up mid build, it goes into the next phase rather than quietly growing this one.
You get
Each phase
- Fixed scope, agreed up front
- Working software at the end
- You decide whether the next phase starts
What happens after launch?
We stay on to support what we built and tune it as your team uses it. When you're ready, we scope the next phase the same way as the first. You deal with the people who built the system, not a support queue that has never seen it.
Real use shows what to improve. We watch how your team works with the system once it is live and fix what gets in the way.
You get
After launch
- Support from the people who built it
- Improvements based on real use
- The next phase only when you want it
What do we keep, whatever happens?
You keep the blueprint, whoever builds it. Your data stays in systems you control. No phase starts without your approval, so you can stop after any one of them and keep everything built so far. Each phase is priced before it starts, so there is no open ended bill.
The blueprint
Module map, data design, migration plan and phased roadmap.
Your data
In systems you control, not locked inside ours.
The decision
No phase starts without your approval. Stop after any one of them.
Questions about the process
What happens in Discovery?
We spend one to two days with your team, 45 to 60 minutes with each person who touches the process, then a round of follow up questions. You get a blueprint with a module map, data design, migration plan and a phased roadmap, with a price for each phase.
Do we own the blueprint?
Yes. The blueprint is yours to keep, whether we build it or someone else does. It sets out what to build, in what order and what each phase costs, so any capable team could pick it up. We would rather win the build on merit than lock you in.
Can we stop after one phase?
Yes. Each phase is a decision point. You pay for one phase, we prove it works, then you decide on the next. If a phase does not earn the next one, you stop, and you keep what was built along with the blueprint.
How long does a build take?
It depends on the phase. Discovery takes one to two days. After that, each phase is sized so you see it working early, rather than waiting months for one big launch. You get a timeline for every phase before it starts, and it is part of what you approve.
