Team Topologies companion
Team Topologies companion for engineering leaders
Team Dependencies helps you understand where your coordination costs are hiding, design team structures that actually reduce delivery friction, and build a credible path from your current state to a target state that ships faster with less overhead.
The Cost of Ambiguity
You know something is wrong. You just can't prove it.
Coordination costs are invisible
The real drag on your delivery speed never shows up in sprint velocity or your P&L. It accumulates in blocked PRs waiting on another team, in meetings scheduled just to align on who is doing what, and in the engineering hours spent managing dependencies instead of building product.
Your org chart is not a design
A reporting hierarchy tells you who manages whom, but it says nothing about how value flows, where cognitive load concentrates, or which interaction patterns are quietly costing you weeks of delivery time every quarter. Most leaders treat the org chart as if it were a team design, and the gap between the two is where friction lives.
Without a shared model, you can't act
Restructuring conversations stall because nobody can agree on what the current state actually is. Before you can make a credible case for change, you need a shared picture of what your teams cost, how they depend on each other, and where the friction is concentrated.
Four modes
Four views of the same problem
Every mode reads from and writes to the same workspace: your teams, your dependencies, your numbers.
Dependency Costs
Puts a monthly cost figure on your cross-team coordination: per dependency, per team, and across the whole org.

Team Topology Mapping
An interactive canvas for designing your current and target org using Team Topologies primitives, driven by a plain-text DSL.
User Needs Mapping
Map value streams to user needs and ground your team structure in what you are actually trying to deliver.
