Clear build / buy / outsource
Every map element gets a decision—fewer “we build it because we always did” projects.
Wardley Mapping
Decide what to build, buy or outsource
For boards and IT leaders. A capability map shows where you truly compete—and where you overpay for something the market already sells as SaaS.
Benefits
Advantage where it actually matters

You leave with named moves—not only a flipchart map.
