SYSTEM STATUS: READY

WE AUTHORIZE THE START.
WE STABILIZE THE FINISH.

NuLL State is an operator-led practice that enters digital initiatives at critical inflection points. We diagnose before you build. We kill zombie projects. We ensure clean exits.

THE INTERVENTION

Most organizations fail in two places: They start things that should not be started, and they continue things that should already be finished.

We do not sell hours. We do not sell optimistic code. We sell decision authority.

  • No indefinite staff augmentation.
  • No "optimizing" broken structures.
  • Entry Authority: "Should this system exist?"
  • Exit Authority: "How does this end correctly?"

THE FORWARD-MOTION DIAGNOSTIC

We price decisions and responsibility, not hope. Every engagement begins here.

PROCEED

GREEN

The direction is structurally sound. Safe to build if discipline is maintained.

ACTION: Initialization Sprint
PRICE: $8k - $15k

Includes system spine, repo structure, and First Value delivery. No feature creep.

REFRAME

YELLOW

Signal exists, but framing is risky. Ambiguity must collapse before building.

ACTION: Narrowing Sprint
PRICE: $3k - $6k

You pay to remove risk, not to create artifacts. We define "Done" before we start.

STOP / PIVOT

RED

Unsafe to build. Stopping now preserves capital and morale.

ACTION: Ideation Reset
PRICE: $2k - $4k

Optional. We reset assumptions without attachment. Sometimes the best move is to stop.

REALIGN

RESTRUCTURE

System has value, but structure is misaligned. Risk is compounding.

ACTION: Restructure Sprint
PRICE: $6k - $12k

Simplification of critical paths. Risk reduction. We change the shape, not the features.

STABILIZE

FINISH

First value delivered. System must be locked and protected.

ACTION: Handoff & Exit
PRICE: $4k - $8k

Hardening, documentation, and guardrails. You pay for closure and durability.
