IT Health Assessment

Know where IT really stands before committing the next budget.

3-4 weeksFlagship diagnostic

Structured workshops and evidence review produce a defensible heatmap, the red flags that matter, and the strategic decision leadership needs to make next.

Runs on the Galactus assessment platform: anchored questions, evidence-based scoring, and red flags that override averages. Repeatable yearly with a delta report. See how our assessments work

How this engagement stays controlledA senior mandate should make the decision, evidence, and accountability easier to control.

Decision first

The mandate starts with the decision, owner, time window, and evidence that could change the answer.

Evidence and boundaries

Scope, exclusions, evidence access, and uncertainty are made explicit before conclusions are presented.

Accountable handover

Sven leads the work directly and closes with clear ownership, decisions, and next actions.

Build the baseline

How an IT Health Assessment turns uncertainty into a decision

A structured line from leadership concerns and verified evidence to red flags, a defensible heatmap, and the decision that matters next.

Trigger

When an IT Health Assessment is the right starting point

Use an IT Health Assessment when leadership can see cost, risk, delivery, or resilience problems but lacks a reliable baseline for deciding what to do first. It turns broad concern into a bounded executive question.

Evidence

From management claims to a defensible IT baseline

Structured interviews are tested against available policies, budgets, contracts, inventories, architecture, service data, and operational evidence. Conclusions distinguish what is demonstrated, what is incomplete, and what remains unverified.

Materiality

Critical red flags override the average

A reassuring overall score cannot hide a material continuity, security, ownership, or delivery failure. Critical findings are raised separately so leadership sees what can change the decision immediately.

Decision

From heatmap to a board-level decision

The result connects domain health, material red flags, quick wins, and structural priorities to one next decision: stabilize, invest, transform, investigate further, or stop a weak initiative.

Decision dossier

What this mandate decides, includes, and hands back.

The useful boundary is visible before the work begins: the decision, the evidence, what is excluded, and what happens next.

Decision

The decision this supports

Whether leadership should stabilize, invest, transform, or investigate further—and in what order.

Included

In scope

IT strategy and governance, organization and people, applications and data, infrastructure and security, vendors and cost, continuity, delivery, and the evidence available for each conclusion.

Boundary

Out of scope

A penetration test, statutory audit, detailed implementation design, or legal opinion. Specialist testing can be scoped separately when a finding requires it.

Evidence

Evidence required

Policies, budgets, contracts, inventories, architecture records, service and incident data, project reporting, restore evidence, and direct stakeholder interviews or observation.

Handover

What happens next

Leadership receives a prioritized decision view and can stop, deepen a finding, or move into a separately scoped advisory or execution mandate.

How the mandate is set up

Timing

3-4 weeks

Delivery owner

Every mandate is led directly by Sven Van Roosenbroek. Specialist involvement, when needed, is made explicit in scope.

Commercial model

Fixed fee for a defined facilitated assessment scope.

What you receive

  • Your downtime cost per day, calculated in euros, not estimated
  • Your top 5 problems ranked by business impact, and your top 5 quick wins
  • The one strategic call that matters, framed for a decision
  • Red flags in two tiers: what can kill you versus what needs fixing
  • The compliance questions your customers and insurer will ask, answered early (NIS2 applicability, e-invoicing, cyber insurance requirements)
  • A board-ready report with domain heatmap, prioritized roadmap, and secure share link

Use this when

  • CEOs who sense something is wrong with IT but can't name it
  • New leadership wanting a fast, honest baseline
  • Boards needing an independent read before a big IT decision
  • Organizations due for an annual IT reality check

Bring the decision to a direct conversation.

Thirty minutes is enough to establish fit, the right depth, and the next responsible step.
