Built Into Work | Vic Akosile | Version 1.0 | October 5, 2026

For: Sponsors, team leads, and product owners
Use when: After a workshop, pilot review, or leadership discussion
Suggested time: 20 minutes

Use synthetic or authorized information. Keep sensitive work in approved tools. A named person owns each decision. These tools support discussion and planning; they are not validated assessments.

## 1. Commit to one outcome

Choose an outcome for one workflow. Each period should produce evidence for a decision, not a list of activity for its own sake.

### Outcome

What should be observably different by day 90?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

### First 30 days

What uncertainty must be resolved first?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

### By day 60

What is the next bounded experiment if prerequisites are met?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

### By day 90

Which decision will the evidence support?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

## 2. Name the commitments

For each action, record owner, evidence, date, dependency, and stop condition.

### Owner and capacity

Who can deliver, and what time is committed?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

### Evidence and decision

What will the owner show at the checkpoint?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

### Boundary

What are you deliberately not committing to?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

### Review rhythm

When can the plan change?

Your response:

________________________________________________________________

## Completed companion example

All organizations, workflows, numbers, and results in these examples are fictional and provided for learning. Targets are proposed decision criteria, not validated standards or promised outcomes.

**Outcome**
A supported policy-answer workflow with known quality, human effort, operating cost, and accountable owners.

**First 30 days**
Validate baseline, clean policy versions, complete synthetic tests, and resolve blocking issues.

**By day 60**
Run an authorized limited pilot with human approval of every draft; compare end-to-end effort.

**By day 90**
Expand, revise, or stop based on quality, escalations, effort, and operating readiness.

**Owner and capacity**
Service-desk lead owns the plan; specialist review allocation agreed before the pilot.

**Evidence and decision**
Reviewed test register, baseline comparison, issue log, and operating cost record.

**Boundary**
No autonomous sending, eligibility decisions, or expansion to personnel records.

**Review rhythm**
Weekly review of issues; a formal decision at each 30-day checkpoint.
