The Fractional COO's 90-Day Operating Playbook

How to install the operating machine a scaling company needs — in the first ninety days — so growth becomes repeatable instead of heroic.

What's inside

A practical sequence, not theory

  • The five systems every scaling company needs — cadence, people, delivery, finance, and compliance.
  • The 90-day arc — diagnose, stabilize & install, then scale and hand off.
  • Five working checklists — operating cadence, HRIS selection, a benefits stack for a scaling firm, delivery assurance, and T&E controls.
  • Five signs you need a fractional COO — a quick self-diagnostic.

Written for founder- and CEO-led companies (roughly 15–150 people) scaling in regulated, mission-critical markets — GovCon, defense, cyber, and regulated commercial.
