Illustrative example

Software no longer fits the operation

Support the rules and exceptions that matter

The standard path works, but important exceptions live in spreadsheets, free-text fields and individual knowledge. Routine changes are slow because the operation and its software have drifted apart.

01

Decision to clarify

Determine which needs justify configuration, integration, extension or purpose-built software, and which exceptions should remain a deliberate human decision.

02

Possible direction

A focused operational application could guide the critical workflow, present the right context at each decision and keep rules, exceptions and interventions traceable.

03

Small, clearly defined first step

Model one critical workflow with Domain Experts and test representative rules, users and exceptions before selecting a broader implementation route.

04

What to review

A tested workflow, clear assumptions and exclusions, identified system constraints and a recommendation that explains the appropriate scale of implementation.

These capabilities may be relevant, but the right approach depends on what the first investigation reveals.

Back-office and workflow software

Design and build staff applications and specialist workflows around real rules, decisions, exceptions and operational constraints.
