Strategic Assessment for Confident Action
Transformation works best when it’s driven by clarity, not guesswork. Proventeq’s Discovery & Analysis Service gives you a complete, 360° view of your content estate—spanning files, systems, permissions, processes, and metadata—before you migrate, modernise, or industrialise.
Through structured, insight-led assessment, we uncover risks, redundancies, and opportunities that shape confident decision-making. From consolidating legacy systems to preparing for AI-driven innovation, our service delivers the evidence and roadmap you need to act with certainty and precision.
Structured Delivery Phases
Our Discovery & Analysis Service follows a proven, phased approach that moves from defining the scope to delivering clear, actionable recommendations. Each stage builds on the last, ensuring that findings are grounded in evidence, aligned with stakeholder priorities, and ready to drive confident, informed transformation.
Scope Definition
Define scope, exclusions, objectives, systems, and access protocols. Confirm tools and readiness.
Data & Process Discovery
Use tools and scripts to scan systems, extract metadata, map dependencies, and identify anomalies.
Analysis & Insight Generation
Perform ROT analysis, classify data, assess permissions and risks. Identify optimisation and automation targets.
Stakeholder Engagement
Align priorities, validate risks, and gather context through interviews and workshops.
Reporting & Recommendations
Deliver structured findings, dashboards, risk registers, and a forward-looking roadmap.
“Transformation begins with understanding. Discovery gives you the insight to align people, processes and platforms, so every next step is taken with confidence.”
Methodology Mapping
Our methodology is designed to move you from understanding your current state to executing scalable, future-ready transformation. Each stage unlocks new insights and opportunities—whether it’s consolidating your estate, modernising your architecture, or enabling AI-driven innovation—supported by advanced tools to ensure precision and impact at every step.
