HERE IS THE ASSESSMENT OF TANYA W’S MATURITY CHEATSHEET AND THE HANSEN FIT SCORE
TODAY’S TAKEAWAY
Both the Hansen Fit Score and Tanya W’s Maturity Cheatsheet are designed to illuminate the “truth” about organizational readiness and fit in procurement transformation, but each addresses the challenge of inconvenient truths and information asymmetry in distinct ways—especially where clients or solution providers may not realize (or may not want to admit) the reality of poor fit or unreadiness.
History and Industry Insights
The Procurement Insights Archives (2007–2025) repeatedly validate that most solution providers and organizations struggle to surface and act on inconvenient truths about readiness and fit, unless independently assessed. Hansen’s model is fundamentally designed to challenge and disrupt this status quo, while Tanya W’s toolkit provides a structured, accessible way for practitioners to do so themselves (assuming sufficient candor and leadership).
In summary: The Hansen Fit Score prioritizes independent, rigorous readiness assessment, aiming to expose truths vendors have incentives to suppress; it requires either external oversight or practitioner integrity to work. Tanya W’s Maturity Cheatsheet, while highly practical and team-driven, depends on organizational willingness to confront gaps and blind spots without external enforcement. Both strategies add critical value—Fit Score by challenging commercial bias, Maturity Cheatsheet by lowering the barrier for reflective internal improvement—but honest “truth telling” remains the industry’s hardest hurdle.

BONUS COVERAGE – THE KPMG FACTOR
Tanya Wade’s association with KPMG adds professionalism, consultancy rigor, and industry validation to her maturity cheatsheet, but may introduce diplomatic caution or commercial priorities in surfacing uncomfortable truths. The Hansen Fit Score, conversely, remains an independent, often more contrarian tool designed explicitly to force direct confrontation with readiness gaps—regardless of vendor, analyst, or consulting interests.
