1. Selected result
Target, current state, dates, owner, scope, and customer, project, revenue, or strategic consequence.
Data readiness
Check whether the current records can support the decision.
Useful analysis starts with a measurable result, current work, accountable owners, meaningful states, visible waiting, and a leader who can act on the finding.
Readiness check
Review ten parts of the operating record.
Perfect records are unnecessary. Missing fields must be visible so leadership understands which conclusions remain weak.
2. Organization
Relevant teams, managers, shared specialists, approval roles, and legitimate access.
3. Projects and recurring work
Contributing work, owners, states, dates, dependencies, and clear scope boundaries.
4. Tasks and movement
Owners or queues, meaningful states, blockers, dependencies, start, completion, cancellation, and enough history.
5. Waiting evidence
Named waiting point, queue count, wait rule, aging threshold, rework, and input quality.
6. Business exposure
Affected customers, deals, projects, dates, or costs with clear estimate and weighting rules.
7. Candidate comparison
At least two plausible causes and recorded evidence that favors or weakens each one.
8. Action authority
A leader can change priority, release, policy, sequence, ownership, training, or capacity.
9. Verification
Baseline, matching measure, suitable review period, outside changes, and maintained work states.
10. Trust and technical scope
Identity, access, privacy, retention, data flow, security, and procurement requirements.
Readiness result
End the check with one of four honest outcomes.
The label should state what the current record can support and what must happen before a stronger conclusion.
ReadyCandidate analysis
The result, current work, owners, waiting, and authority are sufficient. Record remaining gaps.
LimitedNarrow decision only
The product can compare causes, while history or exposure limits confidence.
RepairData work first
Missing or stale records would make the recommendation misleading.
No fitStop this case
No measurable result, current record, authority to act, or verified product scope.
Bring the readiness result to the Delay Review.
We will use the current records, name the missing evidence, and decide whether self-service, repair, a pilot, or no fit is appropriate.
