Commercial Operating Systems

Most teams don't run on a system. They run on vibes.

Colossal Consulting designs the org structures, project funnels and operating rhythms that turn fast-moving commercial teams from chaotic to compounding.

01 / The Pitch
The problem isn't your team. It's the wiring underneath them.

Your commercial team is leaking time, money and clarity — and the symptom you've noticed isn't the problem. The problem is you don't have a system. You've got clever people running on adrenaline, gut feel and the founder's mood. That works for a while. Then it doesn't.

A decade building operating systems inside large, matrixed organisations — recognised by Asana with their 2024 Work Innovation Award. Now applied to businesses that would rather not learn the hard way.

02 / The Practice
Focused on systems, not slides.
Service 01

Operating Model Design

We redesign the org structures, decision rights and team architecture that turn fragmented commercial groups into a single engine. The org chart is the easy bit — the wiring underneath is the work.

Outcome

A setup leadership can defend, and teams can actually run.

Service 02

Project Funnels & governance

We design how work enters your team, gets prioritised and ships — replacing Slack-as-tracker and quarterly panic with real intake, capacity planning and delivery rhythm.

Outcome

Clarity on what's being built, by whom, by when.

Service 03

Asana architecture

We build Asana as commercial infrastructure, not a task tracker — connecting portfolios, capacity, governance and reporting into one operating layer. Award-winning, publicly case-studied.

Outcome

A tool your team uses without being told to, that leadership trusts to run the business.

Service 04

Operating rhythm

We redesign the cadence of weeklies, monthlies, SteerCos and executive readouts so the right conversations happen at the right altitude. Not more meetings — fewer, better ones.

Outcome

Fewer meetings, better decisions, and a leadership team that knows what's going on.

03 / The Process
No discovery theatre. Just work that ships.
01 — Talk

We talk.

A 45-minute call where you describe the mess and I describe what I'd do about it. No deck, no questionnaire. If we don't click, we don't proceed.

02 — Scope

I scope.

A short proposal — what I'd build, in what order, over what timeframe. Bespoke price against bespoke scope. Fixed fee, not day rate.

03 — Build

We build.

I work like I'm on the team — fast, embedded, opinionated. You get the system, the rhythms, and the enablement to run it.

04 / The Operator
Sean Wiseman.

Senior commercial operator with a decade inside large, matrixed organisations — building operating models from blank canvas, architecting governance, and turning fragmented teams into a single commercial engine.

The work spans every layer of the system: org design for 40+ person cross-functional environments, portfolio and capacity governance for complex pipelines, and the operating rhythms that hold the whole thing together.

Recognised with an Asana Work Innovation Award for transforming a commercial team's operating system from task tracker to commercial infrastructure.

05 / The Commission
Engagements are bespoke.

Every commercial team is broken in a slightly different way. Some need the whole model rebuilding from blank canvas. Some need a single funnel unblocked. Some need someone to tell them which six meetings to cancel.

Pricing follows scope, not a tier list. Tell me what's going on. I'll tell you what I'd do, how long it takes, and what it costs.

The Model · Engagement Structure

Bespoke scope. Bespoke price.

Fixed fee against fixed scope. No day-rate creep. No surprise invoices. You know what you're paying before anything ships.

Typical ShapeFrom a focused two-week diagnostic to a full operating model rebuild over a quarter.
Engagement StyleEmbedded, opinionated, fast. I work like I'm on the team, not visiting it.
What You GetA working system — org, funnels, rhythms, and the enablement to run it without me.
