DevOps Jumpstart: 4 Week Assessment

DevOps Jumpstart – 4 Week Assessment

DevOps Jumpstart is a structured four-week assessment that defines your DevOps vision, evaluates the current state, and delivers a prioritized roadmap to modernize on a GitHub-centric future state—unifying source control, CI/CD, security, and collaboration while reducing legacy complexity.

Our Proven Approach

We use a structured methodology that covers:

• Vision & Goals Workshop – Establish what DevOps means for your organization and set measurable objectives across agility, stability, quality, security, and efficiency.
• Maturity Gap Analysis – Assess 75+ data points across leadership, culture, development, CI/CD, testing, monitoring, infrastructure, and security—identifying gaps that GitHub can address versus legacy tools.
• Value Stream Mapping – Build current and future state maps to expose bottlenecks and define a GitHub-enabled target flow.
• GitHub Future-State Architecture – Highlight GitHub Actions (CI/CD), Codespaces (developer productivity), and Advanced Security (code & dependency scanning, secret scanning to discover unprotected credentials), plus repository-based collaboration.
• Modernization & Migration Guidance – Provide tool-agnostic recommendations that leverage existing investments, outline migration paths off legacy systems, and enable automated guardrails (branch protection, PR checks, environments).

What You Can Expect

Our team will engage to:

• Run kickoff and current/desired state workshops (Week 1)
• Analyze your environment, toolchain, and workflows with a legacy-to-GitHub lens (Weeks 2–3)
• Interview up to five cross-functional SMEs across dev, ops, and security (Weeks 2–3)
• Deliver findings, a prioritized improvement backlog, and a GitHub-centric roadmap (Week 4)

Engagement Outcomes

At the conclusion of this engagement, your organization will have:

• A DevOps Adoption Blueprint charting the path from legacy toolchains to a modern GitHub platform
• A value stream map for current and GitHub-enabled future state processes
• A maturity gap analysis with prioritized actions across people, process, and platform
• Practical recommendations including how to leverage GitHub Advanced Security for code & dependency insights and automated secret scanning to detect unprotected credentials

Why Trace3? We align people, process, and platform to scale DevOps with GitHub—accelerating delivery, improving security, and simplifying operations while maximizing your existing investments.
