The honest bit
Who built this. Why it exists. What it isn’t.
Who
The Deliverators. Over thirty years across governance, delivery, and operations — from boardrooms to build teams, across organisations from startups burning cash to regulated enterprises managing existential risk.
We’ve killed more projects than we’ve started. And that’s a good thing. The most expensive project isn’t the one that fails — it’s the one that keeps going when everyone knows it shouldn’t.
unfsckd is built and maintained by Antony Loomans, founder of The Deliverators — thirty years spent in delivery and governance, much of it walking into projects already on fire.
Why
Because we got tired of walking into projects three months late and spending the first nine weeks working out what everyone already knew but nobody had said out loud. These templates are how we work. We gave the diagnostic layer away because the diagnostic isn’t where the value is. The value is in what you do with what you find.
What it isn’t
This isn’t project management methodology. It isn’t professional advice. It isn’t a substitute for qualified guidance. It’s a set of diagnostic starting points — structured enough to surface real gaps, honest enough to not pretend everything’s fine.
If a snapshot surfaces something serious — a delivery gap, a budget risk, a governance hole — get proper help. Talk to your PMO. Talk to your finance team. Talk to someone who carries professional indemnity insurance and knows your context.
Nothing on this site creates a client relationship, an advisory engagement, or a duty of care. You’re a grown-up. You downloaded a template. What you do next is on you.
Progress over perfection — but not recklessness over common sense.
The methodology
These templates sit within the Deliverators Continuum Canon — a governed methodology library maintained by the Continuity Council. The frameworks they connect to:
SX Metrics
24 KPIs across 6 stages. The measurement engine.
DIAMOND
7-pillar quarterly business audit. The operating system health check.
ALIGNA
6-step decision loop. What you do when a diagnostic surfaces a gap.
4Rs
Rules, Rails, Roles, Reporting. The governance skeleton.
The arc: diagnose the gap → decide what to do → govern the execution → measure the result → audit the system → verify the proof. The unfsckd templates are the first step on that arc — start with the 5-minute Delivery Confidence diagnostic.
