90-Day Continuous Improvement Plan
A phased roadmap that turns insights into action - with clear priorities, owners, and success metrics.
What It Is
After the Friction Audit shows you what's broken and the Flow Map shows you what right looks like, the 90-Day Plan tells you exactly how to get there.
It's not a wishlist. It's a realistic, phased implementation plan that fits around your actual operations.
The 3-Phase Structure
Weeks 1-4: Quick Wins
Low-effort, high-impact changes that create immediate momentum. These prove the value of improvement and build team buy-in.
Examples:
- • Kill 2-3 wasteful recurring meetings
- • Create a simple intake form template
- • Document decision thresholds ("you can approve up to $500")
- • Set up a shared project brief template
- • Clarify who owns which client relationships
Goal: 5-8 hours saved per week within first month
Weeks 5-8: System Redesign
Rebuild 1-2 core workflows based on your Flow Map. This is where you implement the ideal state for your highest-friction processes.
Examples:
- • Redesign client onboarding end-to-end
- • Implement new project kickoff process
- • Build decision rights framework
- • Create asynchronous communication protocols
- • Set up automation for repetitive tasks
Goal: 1-2 major systems running smoothly by end of month 2
Weeks 9-12: Stabilization
Fine-tune what you've built. Address edge cases, update documentation, train new habits, and measure results.
Examples:
- • Refine processes based on real-world usage
- • Document exceptions and how to handle them
- • Train team on new systems
- • Measure time savings and quality improvements
- • Identify next improvements for month 4+
Goal: New systems running independently, 10-15 hours saved per week sustained
What's Included in Your Plan
Prioritized Improvement List
We rank every fix by impact (how much time it saves) vs. effort (how hard it is). You tackle high-impact, low-effort wins first.
Week-by-Week Timeline
Specific tasks for each week. Not overwhelming - 2-3 improvements per week that fit around your actual work.
Owner Assignments
Every improvement has a DRI (directly responsible individual). Clear accountability prevents "we'll get to it eventually."
Success Metrics
How you'll know it's working. Time saved, decisions made faster, fewer handoffs, better team satisfaction.
Check-in Cadence
Recommended touchpoints for reviewing progress (weekly 15-min standup, biweekly retrospective). Keeps momentum going.
Why 90 Days?
90 days is the sweet spot for creating sustainable change:
- • Long enough to implement real systems (not just surface fixes)
- • Short enough to maintain momentum (not "someday we'll get to it")
- • Phased approach prevents overwhelming your team
- • Quick wins first prove value before tackling harder changes
- • Time to stabilize means changes actually stick
Can You Implement It Yourself?
Yes. The 90-Day Plan is designed to be self-executable.
Some clients take the plan and run with it. They have internal bandwidth and just needed a clear roadmap. That works great.
Others continue with Flow Rebuild - we implement it with you over 6 weeks. The $2,500 Flow Check fee is fully credited, so you only pay $5,500 more.
