Why the order matters

It's usually a sequence problem.

Founders rarely lack effort or ideas. They fix things in the wrong order — automating a broken process, hiring into a role with no system underneath it, buying software for a problem that's actually a workflow. The score finds the gaps. The audit ranks them. The sprint or the COO engagement closes them. That's the whole model.
