Another four-letter word of consulting is assessment.
And it's like pay a bunch of money for them to give you a PowerPoint presentation.
And we just don't want to do that.
We want to build something.
And while we're building it, it's easy for us to assess the organization and then give a recommendation for change and how you would scale that through an org.
You said it to begin with.
I mean, these are humongous organizations.
Our average customer that we go into has 5,500 people in technology and 12 layers of hierarchy.
That's the average.
So we have plenty of other ones that have tens of thousands of people in there.
Changing an organization of that size is a, you know, significant task over many, many years type of thing.
Our goal is to truly just build the momentum and excitement for that.
You know, our goal with We Leave Every Customer is are they on the transformation journey without us is where we ultimately want to get to, is where we want to see our customers succeed through that.

The idea was almost like the either mainframe or monolithic application is don't try to rewrite the entire monolithic application at once is how do you just pull off bits and pieces of it?
maybe even keep the old one running while the new one's running and validation and verification between the two.
And then when you could shut down small pieces of the old monolithic application, you could run it in new services outside of that.
