Is this for you?
- Your organisation owns a bespoke software product, or a system the business depends on, and decisions about it are made one request at a time
- There's a long list of ideas and requests, and no shared view of what comes first
- Nobody can say with confidence where the product will be in a year's time
- Parts of the system are ageing, and you'd rather plan their replacement than be forced into it
- You have a strategy, but it hasn't been turned into a plan the people building the software can work from
What we do
- Roadmap planning. We turn your business goals into a prioritised product roadmap: what to build, improve, replace or retire, in what order, and why.
- Planning the whole life of the product. New features, upgrades, replacements and retirement are decided in good time rather than in a hurry.
- Keeping it current. A roadmap is only useful if it reflects what's actually happening. We review it with you regularly and update it as priorities, budgets and circumstances change.
Hatchery: our own roadmap tool
We're building Hatchery, a product strategy and roadmap tool for small software teams who build with AI. It gives a team one place to decide together what to build and why, keeps a record of every decision, and turns agreed work into specifications that AI coding agents can build from. It's coming soon.
Afterwards
Once the plan is in place, we can look after the system itself through software care: monitoring, security updates, keeping frameworks in support, and a named engineer accountable for it.
