Business Technology Foundation

Before you automate the work, make sure the foundation can carry it.

A reliable business depends on clear ownership, usable information, and tools that fit together well enough for people to act. This short brief helps identify which part deserves a closer look first.

01 — Identity and access

Who owns access to essential systems, and is that ownership clear?

02 — Collaboration and information

Can people find the current documents, context, and decisions they need?

03 — Core business tools

Is there a clear source of truth for the systems the business depends on?

04 — Connections and handoffs

Where do systems force people to re-enter information, chase status, or reconcile conflicts?

05 — Automation and AI readiness

Is the work stable enough that automation or AI would remove friction instead of multiplying it?
