Why take the diagnostic?

Use KillerSCAN™ if you want to:

  • Spot warning signs before they become major delivery problems

  • Look beneath symptoms to consider the contributing factors and root causes behind them

  • Identify areas that deserve attention before they become major delivery problems

  • Create a fact-based starting point for a discussion with your team and sponsor

  • Support remediation planning by identifying areas for further action

What your report includes?

After completing the diagnostic, you’ll receive a free report with:

  • A 10-root-cause scorecard showing the severity of warning signs and contributing factors

  • A Project Killer Classification Matrix that categorizes each root cause as Stable, Symptomatic Issue, Silent Killer, or Active Killer

  • Priority findings and high-level recommendations to help your team determine where further attention may be warranted

Important note: KillerSCAN™ is a decision-support diagnostic. It is based on your responses at a point in time and is intended to help frame discussion, validation, and action planning. It does not replace professional judgment, stakeholder consultation, governance review, or a detailed remediation plan.
