The Wales qualified Kiwi will make his bow at full-back for the region at BT Murrayfield on Sunday after arriving from Super Rugby’s Chiefs.
And Hammett is eager to keep up their form that has seen them win four of their last five matches in all competitions.
He said: “It’s important we try and keep this momentum going; the Munster game we played the best we have all year and we plan to win every game.
“I ask myself where our strengths and weaknesses are as a side and that is something I discuss with my Board and playing group. A few tweaks here and there and the future can be very bright.”
The Scottish side have not lost against Welsh opposition at Murrayfield since Scarlets beat them 22-9 in September 2013.
Something has to give with both sides struggling to get lift-off in the Guinness PRO12. Edinburgh started their campaign with a famous away victory at Munster but have only managed to beat Newport Gwent Dragons at home since.
The Blues put their league woes behind them with a perfect start to life in the European Challenge Cup and two straight victories in the LV=Cup.
But their last minute 28-24 loss to Munster meant Hammett’s men are without a PRO12 win since their round one defeat of Zebre. The former All Black has been in charge of the Blues for three months now, and has settled into his role at the region.
He said: “I don’t think I have yet brought in a lot in terms of the playing style. At the moment I am more concerned with do we have the environment that is going to make the group better.
“We have to ask, do we have the environment that will make us more skilful and strong? Do we have players with desire to perform week in and week out? Do we have players who can go to Connacht in horrible wet weather and give everything? Do we have the right mix?
“Those are the questions I need to ask. You can just look at results through 80 minutes, but I’m looking at the long-term while trying to get results at the weekend.”
