Workshops

The first-version workshop

You know your process; your software does not. In two days with the people who run it, the first part of your process becomes software that runs: on day two on the laptop, within a week in the cloud.

The workshop is the first paid step on the path: after the free call comes the workshop, then the next parts, going live in your own cloud account, and care. Everything after it follows from what the room decided.

A first version you can use next Monday

The workshop exists to answer one question with running software instead of slides: does this fit your business? The first part is chosen on day one by two rules: your people touch it every day, and it depends on as little as possible of the rest. A booking that gets confirmed, an order that gets picked, a request that gets assigned.

The screens are generated, so nobody designs anything in the room. That is what makes running software possible in a day, and it means the second day is spent on your rules and your cases, not on layout.

Everything the room produces is yours: the model, the code in your repository and the book, on a framework that is open source.

Who it's for

  • Owners and founders whose daily process runs on spreadsheets, e-mail and a product that does not fit.
  • Small teams with an IT lead or a few developers who want a head start and a method, not a year-long project.
  • Anyone who wants to see their own process running before committing to more than two days.

What you get

The first part, running

The first part of your process as working software on the laptop at the end of day two, with real cases from the room entered.

The same part in the cloud

Reachable by a link for thirty days, within a week of the workshop, so the people who run the process can use it with real cases.

The book of the model

Your process written down in your own words: what happens, what is decided, who sees what. The document you forward to everyone who was not in the room.

The map of the next parts

The next three to five parts of your process, named in your words, with a written offer for them within a week.

How it works

  1. Free call

    Thirty minutes: which process hurts, who knows it end to end, and whether a workshop makes sense.

  2. Day one: what the software is for

    No software words. What the software is for, how the process runs today, how it should run with the new software as the people who run it decide, and which part comes first.

  3. Day two: it becomes software

    The first part is built while the room watches, checked against examples in your words, and the people who run the process enter their first real cases.

  4. The week after

    The part in the cloud, the book, the map of the next parts and a written offer.

What you risk

Frequently asked questions

Who should be in the room?

The people who know the process end to end and the person who decides. Up to six people. Nobody needs a laptop and nobody needs to know anything about software.

On site or remote?

Day one on site at your place in Austria, Germany or Switzerland, because the story is told at a wall. Day two on site or remote.

Which methods do you use?

Domain storytelling, Event Storming and Event Modeling, as methods of requirements analysis. You do not need to know any of them; the workshop is designed for people who have never heard of them.

Do you tell us how to organise our business?

No. You and your people decide how your process should run. We ask, model it and turn it into software.

What if it is not the right fit after day one?

If you cannot say the first part back in one sentence at the end of day one, day two does not happen and only day one is invoiced.
