What is included
A 45 to 90 minute mapping session, recorded with your agreement. A constraint map ranks the main bottleneck against the next two, with a cost estimate supported by your numbers and a one-page summary.
The diagnostic does not include a workflow build, deployment or ongoing management. Implementation is scoped and custom-quoted separately. The $697 credits toward a build booked within 7 days of receiving your findings.
Background
At Tesla Gigafactory Texas, I worked in electrical operations and identified a recurring floor-level inefficiency that annualized to roughly $340K in waste.
Full refund if you cancel before the session. No refund after the session.
Questions about the Diagnostic
What does Makise Systems do?
Makise Systems helps electrical contractors and B2B agencies find where leads, jobs and hours leak between tools and people. It puts a cost on that constraint, then builds the outbound and automation systems that fix it.
What is the $697 Diagnostic?
A fixed-price, 45 to 90 minute mapping session, recorded with your agreement. You get written findings: a ranked constraint map, a cost estimate built from your numbers with the assumptions stated, a recommended first fix and a one-page summary.
What happens after the Diagnostic?
If you want the fix built, The Build is a fixed scope quoted from your Diagnostic. The $697 credits toward a build booked within 7 days of receiving your findings. Ongoing monitoring ("Keep it running") is optional.
Is the first call free?
Yes. The fit call is free and takes 15 minutes. If it is not a fit, we say so.
Does the Diagnostic include building anything?
No. Build, deployment and ongoing management are scoped and quoted separately.
