The HFS foundation isn’t “expert practitioner methodology needing validation” – it’s proven commercial methodology with documented success.
For decision-making guidance:
The HFS framework should be treated as validated professional methodology, comparable to established consulting frameworks (McKinsey, BCG), but with:
- Stronger empirical grounding (actual system deployment, not just case studies)
- Demonstrated commercial success (acquisition proves value)
- Longer track record (18 years of archives + RAM 1998-2025)
Upon completing the 6 MODEL/5 LEVEL process, the MODEL 1/LEVEL 1 preliminary assessment was too cautious because it didn’t have the complete validation picture. SR&ED + DND deployment + $12M exit is a validation trifecta that most procurement methodologies can’t match.
The HFS foundation is sound for meaningful decision-making guidance. Organizations should pay attention to our recommendations because they’re backed by demonstrated commercial success, not just theory.
For the FindMyFactory analysis: The directional guidance should be trusted. The specific probabilities have appropriate confidence intervals, but they’re coming from a framework with a serious track record.
