12 standard pathways, a catalogue by step
The catalogue is anchored to the XP-NOVA cycle of 4 phases and 13 steps: every service attaches to a step, and every step closes on a verifiable milestone. The project only moves forward when the milestone is reached — and a milestone is only reached when its resilience condition is verified. Enter at the step you are at.
One logic, three readings
Everything starts from the cycle of 4 phases and 13 steps. The catalogue divides it into 7 assignment steps (E0–E6), each closed by a verifiable milestone. The 7 cycle pathways assemble the services of one step — you enter through the one that matches your situation — and the 4 cross-cutting pathways can be added at any time. The entry pathway gathers, in one engagement, the road from the idea to the bankable file.

12 standard pathways
A pathway is not a closed package: it is a selection of catalogue services, ordered together and sequenced. Each service keeps its code, its deliverable and its unit of work — so a pathway can be extended, reduced or stopped at any milestone without renegotiating the whole.

Pre-qualify
« Is the idea mature, and is the site exposed? »
Covers steps 1 and 2 of the cycle →
Resilience condition: The exposure score is produced and the apparent dependencies are listed.
The 5 services of step E0
Decide
« Is the project viable, and survivable? »
Covers steps 3 and 4 of the cycle →
Resilience condition: The project risk register is rated and the blocking dependencies are named.
The 4 services of step E1
Design
« Is the solution technically and financially feasible? »
Resilience condition: The CAPEX includes a costed continuity budget; without it, the milestone is not reached.
The 7 services of step E2
Finance
« Are the resources accessible, and compatible with the cycle? »
Covers steps 6 to 8 of the cycle →
Resilience condition: Every need is matched to a resource of compatible maturity and a liquidity reserve exists.

Enter the pathway at your step
Each step can be started independently. Submitting your request is free and without obligation, and you get a first reply within 48 working hours. The assignment quote is issued only after the official opening of the file (FOD), in FCFA, followed by the AMO or MOE agreement with its milestones and escrow.
