The program

What it is.

Stacksy's Innovation & Efficiency Discovery Program is a hands-on, no-cost engagement designed to help organisations uncover operational inefficiencies, automation opportunities, and practical technology improvements.

Over a focused 3 to 5 day engagement, our team works alongside your business to understand how your operations function in the real world, identify friction points, and recommend practical opportunities where technology, AI, automation, and better systems can improve efficiency, visibility, scalability, and customer outcomes.

Applications are reviewed quarterly, with limited places available.

What you receive

Five deliverables. One clear path forward.

Selected organisations walk away with a complete picture of where to focus, what to fix, and where AI and automation can move the needle.

Operational workflow analysis

We map how work actually flows through your business — handoffs, bottlenecks, and where time is being lost.

Technology opportunity assessment

An honest read of your current stack: what's working, what's holding you back, and where targeted change pays off fastest.

AI & automation identification

Specific, evaluated opportunities to remove repetitive work and unlock scale — not vague AI hype, real candidates ranked by impact.

Executive findings presentation

A clear, board-ready presentation of what we found — designed to align your leadership team and unlock decisions, fast.

Prioritised innovation roadmap

The exact sequence of moves we'd make — costed, sequenced, and tied to measurable outcomes — whether you build with us or someone else.

Run by senior people

The same founders and senior engineers who lead our paid engagements — no juniors, no offshoring, no wasted days.

Program leadership

Led personally by our CIO.

Kristen Britz

Chief Innovation Officer · Certified Innovation Professional (GIMI)

Kristen leads every Discovery engagement personally — working directly with your leadership and operational teams to identify friction points, assess automation and AI opportunities, and prioritise initiatives by impact and feasibility. She's then joined by Stacksy's developers, architects, and AI specialists to shape practical solution concepts where the opportunity warrants it.

How it works

Five phases. Three to five days of embedded discovery.

A structured engagement designed to fit around your operations — not disrupt them.

1 · Apply & qualify

Submit a short application. We review against fit and capacity, and confirm shortlist within one business week.

2 · Discovery workshop

Half- to full-day workshop with leadership and operational leads to map known pain points and align on success measures.

3 · Embedded discovery

3–5 days on-site and remote. Observation, stakeholder interviews, system & process review. You keep operating as normal.

4 · Analysis & ranking

We rank opportunities by impact, complexity, and feasibility — split into quick wins, strategic enhancements, and transformational moves.

5 · Findings & roadmap

Executive presentation, opportunity register, innovation report, and a prioritised roadmap. You decide what to do next.

No obligation. Discovery doesn't commit either side to follow-on work.

Who this is for

Built for operators who know there's friction — and want a clear plan to remove it.

If any of these sound familiar, the program is built for you.

  • "We know we have inefficiencies — we just can't see them clearly enough to act."
  • "Everyone's talking about AI. We don't know where it'd actually help us."
  • "Our team is stretched. We need a senior outside view to find the highest-leverage moves."
  • "We want a real roadmap — not a deck full of buzzwords."
