For consulting teams
Assignment underway, and one piece is stuck?
Most projects have one workstream where the evidence is scattered, the numbers do not reconcile, and the client will push back hardest. DDA takes that piece and owns it. We rebuild the evidence, test the numbers, and deliver analysis that your team can put in front of the client and defend.
We work with prime consultants and specialist firms.
What DDA can take
DDA can join an active assignment and own a defined analytical workstream. The workstream can be evidence reconstruction, economic or labour analysis, land and servicing analysis, institutional research, or modelling. It can also be another part of the scope that needs a large quantity of evidence.
Teams often bring DDA in for one of these tasks. The first is to trace evidence across sources and organizations. The second is to test the numbers that the final report depends on. The third is to connect the inputs of several specialists into one analysis that supports the decision.
How it works
The workstream has a written scope, a schedule, and a defined product. DDA delivers analysis that fits the wider team, the schedule, and the final report. Every figure in the product traces to a source in the register, and the team can hand the register to the client.
DDA keeps four categories separate in the work: what the evidence establishes, what a specialist advises, what the analysis infers, and what remains unresolved. Where a conclusion needs legal, engineering, tax, accounting, or other professional judgment, DDA identifies the dependency and works with the right specialist.
Where teams use it
A proposal team can use DDA to build the evidence base that makes the technical approach credible, before the bid closes. A delivery team can use DDA when a scope item grows larger than the team can carry. A team that has just received an award can use DDA to build the evidence base in the first weeks, when the schedule is tightest.
