What are Solutions in Octave?

​

What is a Solution?

A Solution is an offering type that represents a packaged answer to a specific business problem — typically a curated bundle of capabilities, services, and methodology sold under a single banner. Solutions sit alongside Products and Services as one of the three offering types in the Octave Library. Where a Product is what you build and a Service is how you deliver, a Solution is the answer you bring to a category of buyer — packaging the right combination for a defined outcome. Treat a Solution as its own first-class offering in the Library. It plugs into Motions, personas, use cases, and qualifying questions exactly like a Product or Service does.

How Solutions connect to other entities

Solutions plug into the same Library graph as Products and Services:

• Personas — who the solution is built for
• Use Cases — problems the solution addresses
• Motions — GTM strategies built around the solution
• References — customer success stories
• Competitors — competing bundles or platforms
• Alternatives — the DIY assembly, status quo, or “do nothing”
• Proof Points — outcome metrics
• Buying Triggers — signals indicating the buyer is ready for a packaged solution
