Interim Leadership.
Lasting Impact.

Consultancies recommend; I take ownership. In a mandate I carry P&L responsibility, make decisions and answer for the results. The diagnosis is not a slide deck but the blueprint for execution, which I will take on myself if you wish.

The snapshot is based on your self-assessment. The diagnosis verifies it against reality: interviews across three levels, system data, process walkthroughs. The difference is the same as between anamnesis and findings.

Snapshot within a week, diagnosis usually starting within two weeks, mandates by arrangement. Considerably faster than any executive search.

Then that is exactly what the verdict will say, and you hold a robust confirmation for your bank, board or buyer. I do not sell problems that do not exist.

The Operations Snapshot is free of charge. The diagnosis and interim mandates run on a day-rate basis, the Operations Retainer on a monthly flat fee. The day rate depends on role, scope and on-site share and typically ranges from CHF 1,800 to 2,800 per day. Before every paid phase you receive a written proposal with defined deliverables. There is no commitment beyond the respective phase.

The Operations Snapshot takes 60 to 90 minutes and delivers an indicative score, the radar and your bottleneck dimension on the same day. The Operations Diagnosis takes two to three weeks to a verified finding. Interim mandates typically run three to twelve months, with the First Move cut to 90 days. Each phase stands on its own: if you stop after the Snapshot, you still walk away with a result.

PRAEVIO is based in Zug, Switzerland, and works across the entire DACH region. Mandates run remote, on-site or hybrid. In practice, a high on-site share proves its worth in the first weeks, because process walkthroughs and interviews across three levels work better in person. After that, a mixed model carries the mandate. The on-site share is agreed in writing before the mandate starts.

The Operations Readiness Score (ORS) assesses a company across six dimensions - strategy & leadership, finance & transparency, processes & operational excellence, organisation & people, systems & data, and governance & risk - on five maturity levels and condenses the result into a score from 0 to 100. Only what can be evidenced counts: claims without proof weigh less than proven practice. What matters is not the average but the weakest dimension, because it limits what the organisation can carry operationally. That is why every diagnosis ends with the bottleneck dimension, a plain-language verdict and a First Move for 90 days.

Interim COO when overall operational responsibility is missing: operating model, organisational build-up, scaling of processes and sites, P&L responsibility from day one. CFO as a Service when financial leadership does not carry: monthly close, forecast, 13-week liquidity, consolidated reporting across entities, exit and due-diligence preparation. Fractional CTO when technology decisions are due: ERP implementation, system consolidation, tech due diligence, make-or-buy with the maths shown. If you are not sure: the Snapshot answers exactly this question before you commit.

The AI Readiness Check is the modular short form of the ORS: the same six dimensions, focused through the AI lens, in two to three weeks. It answers what pays off before budget flows: use cases with ROI instead of buzzword roadmaps, and an EU AI Act-compliant rollout as an operations topic, not just a legal one. If you later commission the full check, the AI Readiness Check is credited at 100 percent.

At the end of a mandate there are structures that work without me. That is the benchmark, not the length of the mandate. If you want proof that the impact lasts, use the Operations Retainer: quarterly re-assessments and sparring on a monthly flat fee. The score trajectory shows in black and white whether the improvement has held. The retainer is optional and can be cancelled at any time.
