You've tried to fix this before. This time it sticks.
You've reorganized the board, tried the new meeting format, maybe even hired someone for a few days. It helped for a while. Then you were back in the same meeting, wondering the same thing. The Realign is different because I measure before, during, and after. Eight weeks of hands-on work alongside your team, with data to prove it worked.

Quick fixes didn't hold. You need something that survives contact with reality.
How it works
Eight weeks. Three phases. More at the start, less at the end.
The engagement is designed to prove it's working by how little you need me by the end. Intensive at the start. Lighter as your team picks it up. Gone by week eight. If I'm still needed at week seven, something went wrong.
Before I change anything, I need to understand how things actually work. Not how the wiki says they work. How decisions get made, where work stalls, what "done" means to each person on the team (spoiler: it's different for everyone, and that's where half the confusion lives).
This is where most quick fixes fail. The new process meets real life: a priority changes, a dependency doesn't land, a stakeholder shows up with an urgent request. I stick around to help the team navigate those moments with the new system instead of falling back to the old one.
By now, the team is running the process themselves. These last two weeks are about making sure it holds without me. I document what we changed and why, flag the risks I still see, and make sure the people who'll own this going forward are confident in it.
Included
Three scans. Not a snapshot. A trend.
The Realign includes three delivery risk scans across the eight weeks. A baseline at the start, a progress check at week four, and a final measurement at the end. You don't just see where you are. You see how far you've come, with data.
Scan 1 (week 1): The baseline. Where do you actually stand on every commitment? This is usually the uncomfortable conversation. It's also the most important one.
Scan 2 (week 4): The progress check. Are the process changes moving the numbers? Which initiatives improved? Which ones didn't? This is where we adjust.
Scan 3 (week 8): The final measurement. Proof that things changed, not just a feeling. This is what you show your board, your investors, or your clients.
Each scan simulates every active commitment 10,000 times using your team's real workflow data. The output is a probability, not a guess.
What's different after eight weeks
A team that ships predictably, not one that depends on you
The goal isn't to build a process the team follows while I'm watching. It's to build one they maintain because it works.
Investment
Eight weeks costs less than eight months of missed deadlines
Can be split across two invoices
- Eight weeks of embedded delivery and product consulting
- Three delivery risk scans: baseline, midpoint, and final measurement
- Workflow redesign, co-built with your team
- Task list cleanup and prioritization
- Coaching for your PM, tech lead, or team lead
- A written handover document
- A follow-up check-in four weeks after the engagement ends
Some context on that number. A team of five missing deadlines by a month costs roughly €40,000 in burned salary and client trust. But the real cost isn't on a spreadsheet. It's the client email you dread opening. The board meeting where you have to say "it's delayed" again. The developer who's thinking about leaving because nothing ever ships. The Realign pays for itself if it saves your team one bad quarter.
Split invoicing. If your finance process requires it, the €20,000 can be split across two invoices: one at the start, one at the midpoint.
Is this right for you?
The Realign is for teams that have tried the quick fix and watched it fade
You've fixed this before and it didn't last
You ran a team retrospective, introduced a new board, tried daily check-ins. It worked for a while. Then things got busy, the process slipped, and you were back where you started. The Realign works because I stay long enough to iterate through the hard parts with you.
You need to prove it to stakeholders
Your board, your clients, or your investors want to see progress. Not promises, not slide decks. Data. The scan gives you a number they can understand, and the process changes give you something real to point to.
Not sure if you need a Kickoff or a Realign?
If the problem is fresh and you just need a clear setup, the Delivery Kickoff (2 days, €5,000) might be the right starting point. If you've already tried the quick fix and it didn't hold, you're probably here for the right reason. Either way, book the call and I'll tell you which one fits.
Questions
Things people ask before committing
"Are you in our office every day for eight weeks?" +
No. Weeks 1-2 are intensive: I'm with the team, learning the workflow, running the first scan, co-designing the new setup. Weeks 3-6 I'm present for key moments but not every day. Weeks 7-8 are light touch: handover and documentation. The whole design is that you need me less as we go. That's how you know it's working.
"What if we need more time?" +
Eight weeks has been enough for every team I've worked with. The follow-up check-in four weeks after the engagement is specifically designed to catch anything that needs adjusting. If something deeper surfaces, we'll address it then. But it hasn't happened yet.
"How much of our team's time does this take?" +
In weeks 1-2: a few hours from 2-3 people for conversations, plus time in your existing meetings. After that, the work happens inside the meetings and workflows your team already has. I'm not adding overhead. I'm inside the existing rhythm, making it work better.
"What if our problem is actually product strategy, not delivery?" +
Then a Realign won't fix it. If you're building the wrong thing, delivering it faster won't help. That said, the two are often tangled together. I'll flag it in the first two weeks if I think the issue is upstream of delivery. The call is free, bring the question and I'll give you an honest answer.
"Can we run the scans ourselves after you leave?" +
Not yet. The scans require tooling and interpretation that I bring. What you keep is everything else: the process, the board, the backlog structure, the meeting format, the coaching. The scan is something I do for you, not something I install. If you want a fresh scan six months later to see how things are holding up, I can run one separately.
"What if we start with a Kickoff and it turns out we actually need a Realign?" +
It happens. A team books a Kickoff thinking they just need a clean setup, and day one reveals the system has already been rebuilt three times and keeps slipping. That's Realign territory, not Kickoff territory. The Kickoff fee applies as a credit toward a Realign if you decide to continue within four weeks.
This has worked before
What actually happened
I embedded with the team, went to the factory floor, and redesigned how client implementations were delivered. A one-hour daily meeting went down to 15 minutes. The next comparable implementation took 6 months instead of 18. Three times faster.
Read the full story →I introduced structured user contact and evidence-based prioritization to a team that was shipping fast but building blind. The team stopped building the wrong things. That focus contributed to the platform growing from 10,000 to over 100,000 monthly visitors.
Read the full story →I can't write a single line of code and I don't understand a word the development team says. But thanks to Bart, everyone knows what's being built, why, and when it's ready.
He sees the unique strengths of his colleagues, helps them grow, and brings them together around shared goals in a way that feels natural.
Haven't built a delivery system yet?
The Delivery Kickoff is two days, €5,000. For teams without a system in place, just a founder holding it all together. Kickoff fee applies as a credit toward a Realign if the diagnosis shifts within four weeks.
