Sustainment Retainer

Ongoing post-embed support for teams that want light reach-back after the core fix work is complete.

What This Is

This is the light support layer after implementation work is done and your team owns daily execution.

I stay available for structured check-ins, documentation updates, and targeted intervention before drift turns into another rebuild.

It protects the gains from Department, Operation, or Deep Embed work without creating full-time dependency.

Who It's For

Best-fit operation profiles

  • Teams that completed an embed and want a safety rail
  • Owners who want monthly operational visibility checks
  • Operations adding new staff who need process continuity
  • Shops that want rapid escalation support without a new project

Problems This Removes

Operational pain points addressed

  • Post-project drift back to old habits
  • Outdated SOPs after staffing or process changes
  • Small issues compounding into expensive failures
  • Leadership losing visibility after transition
  • No trusted escalation path for edge-case problems

What You Get

Deliverables

  • Scheduled monthly or biweekly advisory checkpoints
  • SOP updates tied to real operating changes
  • Targeted coaching for team leads
  • Escalation channel for scoped issue bursts
  • Quarterly health summary and next-step recommendations
