Our assessments provide quick and objective insight into how your organization performs in testing, automation, and software quality. We clearly identify risks, strengths, and areas for improvement, comparing them to market best practices. This not only gives you insight, but also direction: what are the priorities, which steps deliver the most value, and how do you ensure that quality is sustainably maintained? This lays a solid foundation for choices that make a difference today and tomorrow.

What you get with an assessment

An assessment provides structured insight into your approach to testing, quality, and collaboration. We evaluate themes such as test strategy, automation, risk management, chain quality, functional management, business analysis, and non-functional aspects such as performance and security.

The reason for an assessment can vary: sometimes there are visible problems, sometimes a baseline measurement or deep dive is needed. It can also involve evaluating suppliers or substantiating strategic decisions. In all cases, our assessments provide a clear starting point. With a fixed approach, clear scope, and reporting within 2 to 5 weeks, you receive insights that you can act on immediately and concrete recommendations for implementing improvements.
