The 3-Tier Scoring Scale
Major constraint, active risk to value
Owner-dependent operations, missing systems, poor data quality, high concentration risk
Functional but limiting, uneven execution
Systems exist but inconsistent, partial documentation, leadership depth incomplete
Strong, scalable, buyer-ready
Documented, consistent, owner-optional, defensible, diligence-ready
The 10 Value Engines
Each engine is a diagnostic dimension, a workstream, a scorecard category, a valuation dimension, and a measurable contributor to enterprise value.
Proof of Work.
Proof of Value.
Every 60 days, we re-score the engines worked that cycle and hand the leadership team a progress scorecard showing exactly what moved and by how much.
Once a year, we run a full Value Engines re-valuation and quantify the total enterprise value delta in dollars. That's six proof points per year plus one authoritative annual number.
No other advisory firm in this category measures at this cadence.
