Pm gap analysis

Skill julianoczkowski/product-manager/skills/pm-gap-analysis

A market-driven Product Manager copilot (Agent Skills + Claude Code plugin) based on the Pragmatic Framework — guides PMs from idea to launch and produces a client-ready artifact (Markdown or .docx) at every stage.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Run a Pragmatic Institute Gap Analysis — a market-driven self-assessment of how well the team performs the 37 activities of the Pragmatic Framework, who owns each, and where the biggest gaps are. Use when the PM asks "where do we stand", "how are we doing on the framework", a product-org self-assessment, a maturity check, or where to focus. Produces a Gap Analysis table plus a top-3-gaps action plan as a Markdown or Word .docx artifact.

Gap Analysis (Pragmatic Framework: whole-framework self-assessment)

Best done with a small cross-functional group (product management, product marketing, sales, development, executives). It scores every activity in the framework so the team can agree where to invest. See the full 37-box list in ../pm-copilot/references/framework.md.

The scale

  • Importance — how important is this activity to the company? 0 (low) – 5 (high).
  • Assessment — how well are you performing it today? 0 (not doing) – 5 (high).
  • Gap = Importance − Assessment. The largest positive gaps are where you're under-performing on things that matter most.
  • Also estimate Target Hrs/Wk vs Actual Hrs/Wk per activity; divide total hours by 40 to sanity-check how many people are needed.

Owner role abbreviations: PM (Product Manager), PMM (Product Marketing Manager), MC (Marketing Communications), SE (Sales Engineer), Dev (Development), Exec (Executive), PgM (Program Manager), PjM (Project Manager), PO (Product Owner), TPM (Technical PM), Other.

Method

  1. For each of the 7 columns' activities, agree the Current Owner and discuss the Proposed Owner.
  2. Score Importance (0–5) and Assessment (0–5); compute the Gap.
  3. Triage: pick the top 2–3 gaps to focus on over the next few quarters. If more than three tie, the group chooses the three most important.
  4. Fix the strategic (left) side first. If Market Problems has a large gap, fix it first — it improves everything downstream.
  5. Build an action plan for the top gaps (barriers, how to close, owner).
  6. Redo the Gap Analysis in 6–9 months to measure improvement and find the next gaps.

Interview the user for inputs (batch questions)

  1. What's the scope — a product, portfolio, or business unit? (Startups: whole org.)
  2. Who's in the assessment group (which functions)?
  3. Walk column by column: for each activity, Importance (0–5) and Assessment (0–5), current owner, and rough hours. (Offer to go column-by-column so it's not overwhelming.)

Deliver the artifact

Follow ../pm-copilot/references/artifact-output.md: confirm inputs, ask Markdown or .docx, write the .md, convert via your environment's native document-creation capability on request. Then route to the worst-scoring box using ../pm-copilot/references/journey.md (e.g. a Market Problems gap → run pm-market-problems). Not every one of the 37 boxes has a dedicated skill (e.g. Pricing, Asset Assessment, Market Definition, Distribution Strategy, Buyer Experience) — if the top gap lands on one of those, say so plainly and advise directly from that box's definition in ../pm-copilot/references/framework.md instead of forcing the nearest skill.
