Common questions

Work Design Diagnostic questions

What is the Work Design Diagnostic?

The Work Design Diagnostic is a paid, focused review of a defined HR work or operating problem. Copieux works with you to map the current situation, find what is driving the friction, estimate the time and cost involved, and provide a written plan of what to fix first.

How long does the Work Design Diagnostic take?

The diagnostic includes a focused working session, typically 60 to 90 minutes, followed by analysis and a written plan. Preparation and follow-up depend on the scope and information available. Copieux confirms the work, timing and fee with you before the engagement begins.

How much does the Work Design Diagnostic cost?

The fee depends on the scope agreed for your organisation. Ask Copieux for an invoice showing the current cost before you proceed. No payment is taken through this page, and the work starts after the scope and commercial terms are agreed.

How do I book the paid diagnostic?

First agree scope and fee with Copieux. Then use the paid booking option if one has been provided for your engagement, or email to request an invoice showing the fee and terms. The booking is confirmed once the commercial arrangements are agreed.

Can I speak with Copieux before booking a paid diagnostic?

Yes. Book a free 30-minute call to discuss your situation and check whether the paid diagnostic is the right next step. The introductory call is not the diagnostic itself and does not include the written diagnostic plan.

What do I receive after the diagnostic?

You receive a written view of the current work, the main causes of friction, the hours and cost to validate, and a prioritised action plan. The output helps you decide whether to change a workflow, improve a system or take a different next step.

Can the diagnostic fee be credited against a Work Design Sprint?

The diagnostic fee can be credited against a Work Design Sprint booked within 60 days, as agreed in the proposal. Confirm the credit and its terms in writing before accepting the diagnostic invoice.
