Engagement path

From first conversation to a plan the team can use

This page walks through how a flagship Operational Planning Engagement typically runs for a small professional service firm in Bangkok.

  1. Briefing call

    A thirty- to forty-minute conversation to confirm firm size, the primary pressure (intake, delivery, or partner time), and whether a full engagement or a shorter review fits. You leave with a written estimate outline.

  2. Engagement letter

    Scope, fee, discovery dates, and confidentiality terms are set in writing. Deposits and cancellation terms follow our refund policy.

  3. On-site discovery

    We spend focused days in your offices interviewing partners and key staff, reviewing project lists, and watching how work actually moves. Pathum Wan firms often host us near Rama I; we travel across Greater Bangkok as needed.

  4. Draft plan workshop

    Partners review a draft operating plan covering capacity assumptions, intake rules, delivery stages, and weekly rhythm. Disagreements are worked through in the room, not left as vague actions.

  5. Final plan and handover

    You receive a written plan with owners and dates, plus a short briefing for the wider team if you want one. Two check-in sessions within sixty days help adjust the plan once real weeks test it.

What you prepare

Live project lists, known leave and training dates, and fee or invoice summaries for the last quarter if available. Nominate a primary partner contact and protect discovery days in diaries.

Firms that arrive with a single primary question — for example, “Can we take hospitality work through October?” — finish with sharper plans than those seeking a general organisational review.
