Operating plan

Rescue the path before adding more branches.

Step 1

Rank the bottlenecks

Score each manual handoff by revenue impact, error risk, frequency, and how clear the required data already is.

Step 2

Pick the lowest-risk first workflow

Start where the trigger, inputs, destination app, owner, and success condition are obvious enough to operate.

Step 3

Leave a build order

Document the first automation, the app handoffs, the review state, and the follow-on workflows that should wait.
