Start with clarity. Build with a shared plan.
The first step is understanding what needs to change. From there, define a scope that both sides can evaluate before work begins.
From a defined job to a working agent.
Agree on the next useful step before committing to a larger build. The outputs below are what each step is meant to produce; the exact deliverables are agreed with you before work begins.
- Define the job.
Identify the workflow, the people involved, and what a useful result looks like.
OutputA short description of the problem and the starting constraints.
- Set the boundaries.
Agree on tools, permissions, human approvals, and situations that need escalation.
OutputAn agreed scope, its dependencies, and acceptance criteria.
- Build and test.
Implement the agreed scope and evaluate expected tasks and exceptions before release.
OutputA review of the implemented work and the decisions still open.
- Operate and improve.
Review how the workflow performs and decide what should change or expand next.
OutputThe next priority, based on how the work is actually used.
What to bring.
Bring a short description of the problem, the tools involved, who is affected, and any deadline or budget constraints you already know. You do not need to share sensitive data to start.
Let’s define the right first step.
A 30-minute introduction is enough to see whether a further scoping conversation makes sense.
