  • Acceptance criteria sheet

    Hand a developer or agency a story with its definition of done written down: testable expected behaviours, error cases and edge cases, each traced to a rule or design state, with the unclear terms and open questions listed for the product owner.

    • Product management
    • Hardware and physical technology (filtered by)
    • Growth & scaling (filtered by)
  • Assumption map

    For a product owner whose plan rests on beliefs nobody has tested: each belief is written down, set against the evidence you hold, ranked by what it would do to the plan, and given a cheap test to choose from. You decide what to test; no evidence is invented.

    • Growth & scaling (filtered by)
  • Channel partner fit review

    When a referral, reseller or alliance partner approaches, the founder or head of partnerships gets one review: evidence the partner brings customers of its own, the type that evidence supports, a ninety-day plan with signs to go on or stop, and the commission range that still beats selling direct. A person decides.

    • Sales

  • Component end-of-life exposure brief

    When a supplier announces a component constraint or end-of-life date, the sourcing lead gets one brief: where the part is used, stock and demand set against the stated dates, and questions about replacements, with unverified availability kept apart from approved supply.

  • Contractor safety prequalification

    For a named job, the operations, facilities or site manager gets a safety questionnaire scaled to the risk of the work, then a record of the contractor's answers scored only on the evidence supplied, with every gap, the conditions that close it and a review date. A competent person decides.

  • Customer feedback themes

    Each month your support lead sees what customers keep telling you: tickets, disputes, reviews and survey comments grouped into themes with counts and quotations, the three issues most worth fixing with a proposed fix and owner, and a note for customers once a fix ships. A person decides every fix.

  • Emergency drill brief

    Before a fire, evacuation or other drill, the site or office manager gets one brief: the scenario the responsible person has approved, who does what, what each observer records, and the questions for the debrief. It writes no emergency plan.

  • Engineering change affected records index

    When an engineering change request enters review, the document controller gets one index: the assemblies, revisions, stock and open purchase orders the change reaches in the exports supplied, and a question for each owner wherever the records are unclear.

  • Evaluation unit trial review

    When a customer's evaluation reaches its review milestone, the account engineer and account owner get a trial-review agenda that sets the agreed use case beside the recorded results, setup changes and feedback, with every gap turned into a question and next-step options.

  • Executive week-ahead calendar review

    Before the week starts, the executive assistant hands the executive one brief: every clash, every journey or run of meetings with too little time, every meeting with no stated purpose or no preparation time, and proposed time for the week's priorities. Nothing is accepted, declined, moved or sent.

  • Hiring pipeline status report

    Each week your people lead or founder sees every open role on one page: applications at each stage, days open against the target, roles running late, pass-through between stages, which sources lead to interviews, and every blocker with its owner. It counts; it never assesses a candidate.

  • Inbox triage

    The owner, or the assistant who keeps their inbox, starts the day knowing what needs a reply today, what can wait and until when, and what belongs to someone else, with a draft or a forwarding note for each. Nothing is sent, archived, deleted or moved, and no mailbox login is needed.

  • Interview plan and scorecard

    Before the first interview, the hiring manager and every interviewer share one plan: the criteria the role needs, the same questions in the same order for every candidate, and a blank scorecard each person fills in alone. It rates no one. People make every decision about a candidate.

  • Interview process review after a hiring round

    After a hiring round closes, the recruiting lead gets a review of the interview process: questions that gave no usable evidence, competencies nobody covered, inconsistent rubric use, and revisions to approve before the next search. It reviews the process only; no candidate is assessed.

  • Investor update

    Each month or quarter, the founder gets a drafted update for investors: the headline, key figures against plan and last period, cash and runway, wins, problems told plainly with what is being done, and specific asks. Every figure comes from the company's own reports. The founder approves and sends it.

  • Job description

    A hiring manager’s rough notes become a job description the right people want to answer: why the role exists, the work itself, and only the must-haves that are real. Your approved pay and employer wording go in untouched, and nothing is posted until the hiring manager and the people lead approve it.

  • Job posting and sourcing plan

    For one approved role, the hiring manager gets a plan for where to post and where to look: every channel on the company's own list ordered by the signal it should give for that kind of role, a week-by-week schedule inside the budget, and what to count on each channel. Nothing is posted or paid until a person approves.

  • Job readiness packet

    Before an order goes to the floor, the production or quality lead gets one packet: each requirement matched to its approved drawing, specification or inspection plan, with conflicting revisions, gaps and material shortfalls listed. The owners decide; nothing is approved or released.

  • Kit component availability check

    The stock or online-store lead gets every kit beside the quantity actually sellable, the component that limits it, the stock records that disagree and the listings that promise more than can be built. Nothing is changed until a person decides.

  • Lender draw package index

    Before a monthly draw goes to the lender, the project finance lead has an index in the lender’s own order: every required document listed or missing, and every invoice set against the ledger. The lender decides funding; nothing is submitted.

  • Listing copy fact check

    The listing agent or marketing lead gets draft listing copy in which every statement is tied to the property sheet, a measurement or a photo, with unsupported descriptions marked and kept out. The listing broker approves; the designated reviewer checks advertising requirements.

  • Lone work arrangements review

    For each task someone does alone, the manager gets the check-in method, the places where nobody could be reached, who responds when a check-in is missed and how soon, and alternatives. A competent person decides what is acceptable.

  • Menu input cost change review

    When supplier prices change, the chef and food-and-beverage manager get one worksheet: each price movement tied to the quantities in the supplied recipes, the cost per portion of every affected dish before and after, and questions for the chef. It sets no menu price.

  • Pay application line check

    Before a progress billing goes on, the project accountant has every line compared with the schedule of values, the last certificate, the approved changes and the evidence supplied, with each arithmetic difference listed. The authorized certifier decides payment; nothing is certified.
