How we work

Build the system. Put it to work. Keep improving.

Each Ciridae pod pairs expert engineers with deployment strategists. We define the objective with your team, build alongside your operators, and stay with the work after launch.

Before the clock starts

Choose the work worth changing.

The objective
The operating result you want to improve.
The first workflow
The people, records and decisions it depends on.
The baseline
How the work runs today and how we’ll judge progress.

Bring the people who know the work, relevant data, and the decisions the workflow depends on. Together, we choose a useful first scope.

The clock starts on site. We agree access, scope and prerequisites before building. Each milestone expands on the work already in place.

How we work

From one workflow
to your operating system.

Start with takeoffs, scheduling or procurement. Build from there.

3 daysWorking prototype

See it work on your data.

We build a prototype on your data and test it with the people who do the work.

Your operating system, built one workflow at a time.Three days: raw plans and past estimates feed an estimating prototype. Faint construction guides show the space the system can grow into.

3 monthsOperating system

Connect more of the business.

More workflows share records, rules and human controls. We build around your priorities.

Your operating system, built one workflow at a time.Three months: workflows connect across an operating system. The shared knowledge foundation supports estimating, scheduling, work records and invoicing. Scope, crew information, field logs and terms feed the connected floor. Above it, people set direction, handle exceptions and review performance.YOUR BUSINESS / BUILT IN PLACE03 / 03CUSTOMERSYOUR RULESJOB HISTORYYOUR KNOW-HOWFINANCIALSYOUR SYSTEMSPLANSESTIMATESSCOPECREWFIELD LOGTERMSSCOPEPLANEVIDENCEESTIMATESCHEDULERECORD WORKINVOICEDIRECTIONEXCEPTIONSPERFORMANCEPeople in controlDirection.

After launch / Keep improving

The value compounds.

Each new workflow builds on the data, integrations and rules already in place. We operate, maintain and improve the system with your team.

  1. 01Operate

    Support the people using the system. Keep the work moving.

  2. 02Measure

    Review adoption and results against the objective.

  3. 03Improve

    Refine the workflow. Choose the next change worth making.

Put the next improvement to work

You retain access to your application source, data and infrastructure-as-code throughout the engagement. Your people set business rules and approvals; Ciridae operates and improves the software with them.
