Contact Pūtake Labs

Contact Pūtake Labs before the decision becomes commitment.

If you are working through a complex decision, public-facing change, operational problem, stakeholder risk or AI-enabled transformation, Pūtake Labs can help you test the evidence, assumptions and consequences before momentum hardens.

Contact details

Contact details for the decision you need to test.

Use the form, email directly or call to discuss whether a single Lab, a multi-Lab sequence or a Decision Assurance Lab pathway is the right fit. Pūtake Labs is a 50/50 Māori-Pākehā partnership. Both principals are involved from the first conversation.

MOI Decision Enquiry Form
What to include

Useful context for the first conversation.

You do not need to have a perfectly prepared brief. A clear description of the decision and the uncertainty around it is enough to begin.

Decision
What are you trying to decide?

Describe the recommendation, change, investment, programme or problem you are working through.

Pressure
What makes it difficult?

Identify the uncertainty, public consequence, stakeholder pressure, operational risk or adoption challenge.

Timing
When does it need attention?

Share any approval date, board meeting, procurement timeline, launch date or public commitment point.

Evidence
What already exists?

Business case, strategy paper, process map, stakeholder material, reporting, data, meeting notes or risk documents.

The Lab system

Not sure which Lab fits?

Start with the issue. Pūtake Labs will help identify the right combination of Labs and engines. Decision Visibility runs through every engagement, surfacing where power sits, who is affected and what cultural conditions shape the outcome. The Kaupapa Methodology Module is activated where Māori interests are in scope.

Pūtake Labs works alongside the wider Changeable ecosystem.
