Referral Guide

When to call Tequma, and how to refer

Three situations where an independent, board-level read is worth more than another internal status update.

Before go-live

An S/4HANA or Salesforce programme approaching a critical milestone, where the board wants an independent read on real readiness rather than the delivery team's own status report.

Signals it's time to call

  • Testing status is reported as "on track" without a defect count the board can see directly
  • The go/no-go date has not moved despite scope or resourcing changes
  • Nobody outside the delivery team has reviewed cutover and data-migration readiness
See the Before Go-Live hub

Programme in trouble

A transformation that has drifted - budget, timeline or confidence - where the question is whether to recover it, reset it, or stop.

Signals it's time to call

  • The programme has missed more than one major milestone
  • Status reports read as consistently positive despite visible delay
  • The sponsor no longer has a clear, current view of real risk
See the Programme in Trouble hub

The deal

An IT carve-out, TSA exit or Day 1 separation, where an independent view of technical and organisational readiness sits above the deal team and the system integrator alike.

Signals it's time to call

  • A TSA exit date is fixed and IT separation readiness has not been independently reviewed
  • The carve-out plan assumes IT readiness that operations has not confirmed
  • The deal team needs a technology read that isn't coming from the buyer's or seller's own advisers
See the Deal hub

Executive Transformation Triage

A fixed-fee, 10 working days independent read on a programme's real risk, for €35,000 - one board-ready answer before the next critical decision, not a day-rate engagement.

See the Triage page

The numbers

  • 25 years as Group CIO/CDIO at General Electric and Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, across more than 45 countries
  • Over €35M in delivery savings, carve-outs with zero customer disruption
  • 20+ years leading SAP S/4HANA transformation and cutover programmes
  • Board-level, independent - never the system integrator reporting on its own programme
