Workflow discovery
Start with an operational problem people can describe. Follow its inputs, decisions, systems and handoffs. Compare the central view with what a local team actually does.
A workflow map can reveal that a clearer form, document or rule would solve the problem before AI is needed. Where AI fits, define the task it will assist and the decisions that remain with a person.
- A current-state workflow and exception map
- A shortlist of practical opportunities
- Data and system dependencies
- A recommended first pilot and its boundaries
One repeated task, the people involved, the tools used and a redacted example of the work.
