FORWARD-DEPLOYED DELIVERY / FIVE DECISIONS

We build inside the operating cadence.

We do not hand over a specification and disappear. Our architects work alongside process owners through Fit, Lock, Build, Prove and Launch, with a visible output and decision at every stage.

THE DELIVERY CADENCE

Five decisions move the workflow forward.

Each stage produces something your team can inspect and a decision it must make. Progress is visible; uncertainty does not disappear into a project queue.

01
Fit
Identify the trigger, owner, business outcome and constraints. A workflow with unclear authority, unavailable data or an unsuitable risk profile may need review before any implementation offer.
What you receive
Workflow brief
The decision
Is the work repeatable, useful and suitable?
Your part
Bring the workflow owner and an example.
02
Lock
Confirm input and output contracts, included systems, approval rights, exceptions, baseline, exclusions and costs. Changes to that agreement require an explicit scope decision.
What you receive
Scope & acceptance record
The decision
Do we agree what done means?
Your part
Confirm the scope and a measurable baseline.
03
Build
Use customer-controlled accounts, connect only the agreed sources and implement the normal and failure paths. Make draft behaviour visible before a production action is enabled.
What you receive
Working implementation
The decision
Can the agreed path work with approved access?
Your part
Provide approved access and sample data.
04
Prove
Review normal, ambiguous, missing and invalid inputs, unavailable systems and unsafe requests. The workflow owner accepts the agreed cases; a successful build alone is not acceptance.
What you receive
Acceptance evidence
The decision
Does it work when the input is imperfect?
Your part
Review results and accept the implementation.
05
Launch
Agree the release, train users, record ownership and recovery steps, and review the outcome against the baseline. Support and improvements have a defined scope.
What you receive
Operating handover
The decision
Can the team run and recover it?
Your part
Name the owner and join the handover.

WHAT WORKING TOGETHER LOOKS LIKE

Close to the work from first evidence to handover.

AIFAB works with the people who know the process, the systems and the consequences. The implementation stays small enough to understand and serious enough to operate.

Illustrated workflow triage workshop where three professional roles examine process evidence, volume, risk and next steps.

FIT + LOCK

Bring the work, not a technology brief.

We start with a real example, realistic volume and the person accountable for the process. Together we define the boundary before discussing a build.

One process owner and a representative example
Included systems, exceptions and decision authority
A measurable baseline and written acceptance criteria

Illustrated architect, process owner and system specialist working together on a bounded workflow and acceptance criteria.

BUILD + PROVE

Build beside the people who know it.

Draft behaviour is visible before an external action is enabled. We test the expected path and the moments where data, instructions or systems fail.

Customer-approved access and sample data
Visible drafts before consequential actions
Normal, ambiguous, invalid and unavailable cases

Illustrated workflow owner reviewing completed work, exception handling and a visible pause-to-manual path.

LAUNCH + OPERATE

Launch with an owner and a manual path.

The team knows who decides, how to pause new automated work and how to continue manually. Training, recovery and improvement are explicit parts of handover.

Named owner and authorised approval path
Customer-held pause and documented manual fallback
Versioned handover, training and recovery instructions

TIMING & DEPENDENCIES

A focused window with a clear starting line.

A Workflow Launch is normally a focused 10–15 business-day delivery window after scope, access and sample data are ready. AIFAB joins the agreed team cadence rather than operating as an anonymous ticket queue. Customer review, procurement and security approval can still affect elapsed time.

ONE WORKFLOW IS ENOUGH TO START

LET’S MAKE IT WORK.

Show us the
repetitive workflow.

In a short fit call, we can usually determine whether the workflow is suitable, what systems are involved and whether a fixed-scope implementation is realistic.

Bring one repetitive task, its owner, the systems involved and an approximate monthly volume. An anonymised example is enough. NDA available before sensitive discussions.
