When should you consider this

You are thinking about starting a platform engineering initiative and need a business case
You have a platform engineering mandate but you are not sure how to make the long term case
You are ready to scale your  initiative but need concrete proof for additional budgets

What to expect

Building a business case for platform engineering initiatives is non-trivial. From thinking about staffing, investments, timelines, estimating onboarding rates, doing build vs buy calculations, this is far from easy.

Our experts have built such cases for platform engineering initiatives all over the world and across industry verticals. This allows us to develop and continuously refine frameworks that maximize your likelihood of success. During this training our experts will coach you on how to develop and make the business case and Return on Investment (ROI) calculation for your platform engineering initiative.

Listen

As with all our training we start off by listening. What is it you want to achieve? What are the internal drivers? Who are your internal stakeholders? What are their fears and pain points? What’s the unique business situation? This will be done in our 1hr training kick-off.

Map

Next, we’ll structure the insights gathered from various teams. We’ll identify key stakeholders and map out their responsibilities, outcomes, and concerns. By overlaying this information with our industry insights, we can discern what to prioritize and what to approach with caution.

Train

We then help you design your initiative from the ground up. We guide you to developing timelines, setting expectations, staffing and composing the right team and building out a general roadmap for the next 12 months. Some of the training sessions include:

Build vs. Buy considerations
Pain value mapping
Presenting your business case
Platform Engineering Assessment
Understand where you are. Design where you are going.

Expected outcome

Your teams are aligned on the why, what and how of platform engineering. They have a joint understanding of key concepts and are ready to apply product management best practices to build a platform that developers will adopt.
