The BREME Method

A vague feeling that something is off, turned into a score out of thirty

Six pillars, five points each. Every journey gets a score, every score carries evidence, and every gap lands in a ranked plan.

Most experience reviews produce opinions. The scorecard produces an argument nobody in the room can wave away.

Each pillar is scored from one to five for every journey in scope, and each score is written against evidence: what a stakeholder said, what the data showed, what actually happened when we followed a customer through the process.

A score of thirty is theoretical. In practice most organisations land somewhere between fourteen and twenty two, and the interesting part is never the total. The interesting part is which two pillars are dragging, because those two explain most of what leadership has been arguing about for years.

The six pillars

Score your own journey. One to five, six times

Answer each pillar's question honestly for the journey that worries you most. One means it rarely holds, five means it holds every time.

  1. Clarity

    Can a customer explain what you do in their own words, and do three people inside your organisation give the same answer?

  2. Consistency

    Does the experience change depending on which person picks up the file, and would anyone notice if it did?

  3. Ease

    How many steps sit between someone saying yes and the work actually starting, and how many of those steps are the customer's to do?

  4. Connection

    Do your communications reflect what this customer has actually done with you, or only which segment they landed in?

  5. Follow Through

    Is what was promised at the point of sale visibly tracked, and does anyone close the loop when a promise slips?

  6. Momentum

    Where in the relationship do customers quietly stop moving, and does anybody see that moment while there is still time to act?

How the method is applied

The BREME engagement is structured and deliberate

    Analyse

    Every friction point, scored.

    Each point of friction scored against the six BREME pillars, with the evidence sitting behind every score, so opinions turn into a shared picture.
