Operations KPI scorecard
Once a month the operations manager gets one red-amber-green page for the ten or fewer measures that run the operation: each value worked out from your own exports, its trend, what moved and why in the owner's words, and the action agreed for every red. You set the measures and decide the actions.
Order size comparison
When a supplier offers a bigger discounted order, the inventory planner gets each quantity costed the same way: yearly cost, cash tied up, months of cover and storage fit. The planner chooses the quantity; nothing is ordered.
Payout reconciliation for an online store
Each month the bookkeeper gets every payout from the store's processors and marketplaces taken apart and tied to the bank: the orders, refunds, chargebacks and fees inside it, each fee checked against the agreed rate, every difference listed with its evidence. A person posts the entries and raises any dispute.
Payroll preparation and timesheet review
Before each payroll run, the owner gets one sheet built from the timesheet and roster exports: hours by person and type, every missing punch and odd entry raised as a question, and an estimated total. Nothing is keyed in, submitted or paid until a person approves.
Policy answers from the handbook
Staff questions about leave, hours, expenses and conduct get answers that quote your own handbook, name the section, and say plainly where the handbook is silent. Anything about one person's own entitlement goes to HR, and no reply leaves until a person has read it.
Preventive maintenance plan
For one site, the facilities or operations manager gets every piece of equipment ranked by failure cost, an approach for each (run to failure, scheduled or condition-based), a dated calendar of tasks from the maker's guidance and the failure history, the spare parts to hold and the downtime measures to track.
Price change review
Before prices change, the owner or finance lead gets one review: the margin on each product or service from the sales and cost exports, how costs have moved, what each proposed price does to sales and gross profit across a stated range of customer responses, and dated competitor prices. It recommends no price.
Product landed cost worksheet
After an import shipment lands, the owner or bookkeeper gets one worksheet: freight, duty, brokerage, insurance and inbound fees from the invoices spread over each product by a stated method, the landed unit cost beside the cost the store records, and the margin left. A person updates any cost.
Product recall customer contact plan
Once your business has issued a recall, the customer care lead gets the contact plan: affected customers from the order export, the approved notice word for word, drafts that offer only the remedies you run, and a tracker that counts a customer done only when the item is back or repaired.
Recorded sessions into articles
A coach, trainer or consultant hands over transcripts of recent sessions and gets back article drafts in their own words: the subjects they actually taught, their key lines quoted word for word, no participant named, and a review sheet of what to check before publishing.
Site safety induction pack
For one named site, the site, facilities or people lead gets an induction built from that site's own emergency arrangements, rules and hazards, with a short check of understanding, a sign-off record for each person and refresher dates by role. A competent person approves it and delivers it.
Slow-moving stock and markdown plan
Before a seasonal reset, the merchandiser or store owner gets one plan from the sales and stock exports: each item's sell-through and weeks of cover, the cash tied up in dead and slow stock, and a markdown plan in dated steps with the margin each leaves and a date to stop. The owner decides every price.
Stale ticket sweep
Once a week the support lead gets one sheet of what the queue is hiding: tickets with no real activity past their limit, tickets left waiting on the customer with the three ways out of each, likely duplicates, and each person's load weighed by size and age. A person makes every move.
Stock count reconciliation
After a physical count, the bookkeeper and the warehouse or store lead get every item counted beside the quantity and value in the books, each difference in units and money, what to check for it, and the items to recount. Nothing is adjusted until a person approves.
Store facts file
The person who runs an online store builds the one file every other store capability reads first: what the store sells, the facts each product page should state, the statements it stands behind, buyers' questions, policies, roles and access. Nothing on the store is changed.
Store guide for AI shopping assistants
The person who runs an online store gets the plain-language guide a shopper's AI assistant reads about the store: what it sells, for whom, which product line suits which need, and where the policies are. Every line traces to the approved store facts file, and a person places it.
Supplier bill review and payment-run preparation
Before each payment run, the person who approves it gets one sheet: every supplier bill checked against its purchase order and what was received, duplicates and changed bank details stopped, credits shown, and a proposed run with its total. Nothing is paid until a person approves.
Supplier delivery date check
The purchasing or operations person gets one comparison from the open purchase orders and the supplier replies: promised and revised dates side by side, the orders each change puts at risk, and the follow-ups still unanswered. No supplier is contacted.
Supplier issue notice
When a supplier bills for more than was ordered or received, or falls short of an agreed delivery or quality target, the buyer gets a formal notice ready for approval: each problem set against the record, the evidence listed, what the supplier must do and the date to reply by. A person approves and sends it.
Supplier performance scorecard
Once a quarter, the buyer or operations lead scores each key supplier from the business's own order and receiving exports: on-time delivery, fill rate, defects and returns, price against agreed terms and order confirmations, with the trend, the evidence behind every score and the points to raise. A person decides.
Supplier risk alert brief
When something happens to a supplier you depend on, the buyer gets a dated brief the same day: what happened and who reported it when, what you buy from them, how many days of stock you hold against how long another source would take, how exposed you are, and actions with owners and dates.
Support escalation brief
When a support case must move to a specialist or manager, the support lead gets one brief: the customer's impact, a dated timeline from the ticket history, the evidence, the fixes tried, the workaround in place and the decision needed. Nothing goes to the customer.
Support service level definition
The support lead gets reply and resolution targets for every priority level, worked out from the team's own ticket history and the hours the team really has. Each target shows how often the team already meets it, and every gap comes back as a question for the lead to settle.
Training needs analysis
For one team, the HR lead or team manager gets what each role must be able to do, how many people can do it now, where the team falls short, and the training to arrange first, with who arranges it and by when. Counted by role, never a rating of a named person.
