SUNYATA SOLUTIONS

6-Phased Approach ABC uses the Sunyata Group “Technical-Relational-Abstraction-Informational-Negotiation-Implementation” (TRAIN-I) process architecture to recursively identify, gather, and analyze structural-technical and relational-cultural requirements and data to discover, design, prototype, scope, and implement iterative scalable solutions that observably address the requirements that are within the scope of a project. The six phases of TRAIN-I are:

3 Problems

    1. SYSTEMIC DEPRIVATION: Economically depressed communities have experienced decades of resource deprivation spanning generations. They are flooded with a variety of systemic problems germane to poverty-stricken places where the people living there are not the priority for investors.
    2. INEFFECTIVE INTERACTIONS: Communities experiencing long-term systemic distress are often too busy dealing with immediate problems and issues such that there’s no central coordinating body to monitor community efforts and provide a clearinghouse in which local residents can learn about all of the active programs, opportunities and resources available.
    3. PLANNING PROBLEMS: The advantage that real estate developers have over every economically distressed community is these neighborhoods typically lack an organized strategic economic plan based on equitable access to opportunities with measurable impact and projected long-term outcomes.

6-Phased Approach

    • Phase-1: Technical Asset Mapping (Geo-Political Contexts)
      Provides insightful knowledge of the overall community from a 10,000-foot high level.
    • Phase-2: Relational Asset Mapping (Social Cohesion | Resilience | Holistic Mastery)
      Provides insightful relational knowledge of the community stakeholders.
    • Phase-3: Abstraction Mapping (Roles | Behaviors | Processes | Demographics)
      Provides insights into the current and desired Role Interactions (Roles | Actions | Flows | Objectives | Implications), Role Behaviors (Cultural Identity, Orientation Values, Memes, Behaviors), Core Processes (Economic Development | Real Property) and Role Demographics (Cultural Intersectionality).
    • Phase-4: We use catalytic convening processes that incorporate the communication tools such as “Open Space” and “StoryBridge.” These facilitation tools help break down the silos and walls of distrust to accelerate human connection, engagement, empathy, compassion, understanding and trust.
    • Phase-5: Negotiation Mapping (Visioning | Planning | Readiness Assessment) Identifies the structural current reality and the proposed end-state, enables us to be effective in supporting strategic planning and assessing readiness. The end result is the development of a visionary framework and a written concept leading to a comprehensive strategic economic plan with measurable milestones and equitable outcomes.
    • Phase-6: Implementation Mapping (Technical | Relational)
      Provides support prototyping and execution.
