ORGANISATIONAL DIAGNOSTICS

Where does work get in the way of work?

Nortamy identifies hidden work friction that consumes employee time — and turns it into clear, executive-level insight about where change could make a difference.

Distributed signals converging towards the Nortamy compass

Work friction is easy to miss.

Small inefficiencies rarely look significant in isolation. Across an organisation, repeated manual work, duplicated effort, unnecessary coordination and workarounds can consume time while remaining difficult for leadership to see at scale.

Manual work

Repetitive activities that consume time better spent elsewhere.

Duplicated effort

Similar work repeated across people, teams or processes.

Coordination friction

Time created by hand-offs, unnecessary coordination and fragmented processes.

Workarounds

Informal processes created when existing ways of working do not meet people’s needs.

From everyday work to executive insight.

01 — Scan

Employees anonymously identify pieces of work that create friction.

02 — Analyse

Nortamy identifies recurring friction themes and patterns across responses.

03 — Understand

Leaders receive an Executive Report showing where friction occurs, its organisational impact and potential intervention opportunities.

Designed to understand the work.

The Nortamy Scan gives employees a structured, anonymous way to describe the work that gets in their way. Rather than rating people or measuring sentiment, it captures where friction occurs and how it affects everyday work.

Anonymous responses · Structured diagnostic questions · Focused on real work · No individual performance scoring

See where work gets in the way.

Nortamy turns Scan responses into an Executive Report that helps leadership understand recurring friction themes, where they occur, their organisational impact and where intervention may be worthwhile.

Analyse work, not workers.

Nortamy is designed to identify patterns in work and organisational friction, not evaluate individual employees. Scan responses are anonymous, allowing recurring patterns to emerge without turning the diagnostic into a measure of individual performance.

Nortamy Methodology V1

Built for leaders improving how organisations work.

Transformation leaders

Understand where operational change could have the greatest relevance.

COOs

Surface friction that may be difficult to see through conventional operational reporting.

People & HR leaders

Understand how work is experienced across the organisation without reducing it to individual measurement.

Operations leaders

Identify recurring process friction, manual work and coordination overhead.

We’re working with a small number of organisations to run early Nortamy pilots. Participants can use the Scan in a real environment, receive an Executive Report and help shape the next stage of the product.
