Twenty six instruments.
Each reads one place programmes fail.
Four pillars, each leaning on particular architecture layers. The instruments you run are prescribed from your own readings, not chosen from a menu, and each ships with the guide and readout to act on what it finds.
Strategic Alignment
Whether there is a testable value hypothesis, whether it traces to measures, and whether anyone has the authority to act on what it shows.
Value Hypothesis Formalization
- Business outcome clarity
- Mechanism clarity

Ten questions, an indicative readiness band, and a starting path. The instruments read and measure. None of them forecasts a programme outcome.
