> Most CoEs are doing good work. The problem is nobody can see it – including the people running them.

## What we assess

| Dimension          | What we look at                                                                |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Governance         | Is the CoE properly chartered – clear mandate, ownership and decision rights?  |
| Strategy alignment | Does its work visibly connect to business goals and executive priorities?      |
| Delivery           | Is it shipping repeatable, measurable value to its stakeholders?               |
| Enablement         | Is it building capability in the organisation – or just doing the work itself? |
| Metrics and value  | Can you show what it has achieved – ROI, adoption, time saved, risk reduced?   |

The checklist is tailored to your function: Cloud CoE, FinOps, platform engineering, DevOps, data, or other.

## Why it matters

A CoE that cannot demonstrate its own maturity is vulnerable: the budget gets cut, teams get reassigned, the work continues but the function disappears. The CoEs that stay funded can answer three questions clearly – what does it actually do, how mature is it, and what is it improving next, and why. This review gives you the language, the evidence and the roadmap to answer all three.
