Show all 47 workflow templates
Departing-employee knowledge captureWhen someone is leaving or changing role, their manager gets an interview guide aimed at what only that person knows, then a handover document the successor can work from, every point traced to the conversations and marked with how sure it is. Nothing is shared until the manager approves.Workflow templateDiscount request reviewBefore a price below list goes to a customer, whoever approves it gets one page: the discount and what it costs in margin, every clause of your own written policy met or missed, who approves and in what order, and what the customer gives in return. A person decides; nothing is sent.Workflow templateEmergency drill briefBefore 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.Workflow templateEmissions activity data scheduleWhen the reporting period closes, the environmental reporting owner gets one source-linked schedule of energy, fuel and transport quantities with units and the boundary supplied, estimates kept apart from measured activity, missing factor references and gaps listed. It calculates no emissions figure.Workflow templateEmployee onboarding planEvery new colleague starts with a first week and a first 90 days planned to the standard of your best manager: what to read, who to meet, what to practice and what productive means at day 30, 60 and 90.Workflow templateErgonomic review inputsFor a supervisor preparing for an ergonomics assessor or a worker's complaint about a task: a task observation record of each step's movements, durations, loads and measurements as supplied, the measurements still missing, and what the people who do the task said.Workflow templateGoal alignment reviewBefore next period's goals are set, the chief executive sees every team goal mapped to the company priority it serves: goals with no company parent, goals that pull against each other, priorities nobody owns, and the questions for each owner. It judges goals, never people.Workflow templateIncident investigation and corrective actionsAfter an injury, near miss or property damage, the site, operations or safety manager gets the investigation written up from the evidence: a timeline, the immediate and underlying causes, actions with owners and dates, and a register that follows each action until a check shows it worked.Workflow templateInternal change announcementOne decided change, announced well: managers briefed first, a message for each group in the right order, talking points, and the questions people will ask, answered only from the decision or marked open. Every message is a draft that a person approves and sends.Workflow templateLone work arrangements reviewFor 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.Workflow templateManager feedback preparationEvery manager walks into a feedback conversation prepared like your best one: specific dated observations, the questions worth asking, a clear ask and the support on offer.Workflow templateNonconformity record draftA quality lead or supervisor who has spotted something wrong gets a draft record: the observation set against the stated requirement, the affected work counted from the register, and the containment options. The quality owner decides every call.Workflow templateNotification channel planWhen a business event needs to notify people, the integration owner gets one channel plan from the event definitions: trigger, urgency, who is told by which channel, what needs confirmation, fallbacks and reply handling. Consent and message rules stay as questions. Nothing is sent.Workflow templateOperations KPI scorecardOnce 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.Workflow templatePolicy answers from the handbookStaff 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.Workflow templatePremortem before a decisionBefore your team commits to a plan that is hard to undo, such as a move, a launch or a new system, a short workshop pictures it a few months on, already failed. The record ranks the reasons, turns each top risk into a check, a warning sign and an owner, and leaves the go decision with the owner.Workflow templatePreventive maintenance planFor 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.Workflow templateProcess map and bottleneck reviewMap one process step by step: who does each step, how long work waits and how long it takes, where it is handed over and where it gets sent back. Then find the one step that caps how much gets finished, and what to try there first. The owner decides what changes.Workflow templateProduct landed cost worksheetAfter 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.Workflow templateRepeat incident pattern reviewA safety lead with a year of incident records and earlier actions gets them compared in groups: confirmed causes, what was done before, and where incidents recur, with questions for the team. A competent person judges what the pattern means.Workflow templateSafety walk follow-upAfter a safety walk, the manager gets a follow-up brief that ties each concern workers raised to the commitment the manager made, its owner and due date, and the message to give back. Gaps arrive as questions, never as guesses.Workflow templateSales pipeline reviewEach week your sales lead sees the whole open pipeline on one page: value and age by stage, what moved since last week, the deals at risk and coverage against your target. Every figure traces to your export, and the forecast number is left for a person to commit.Workflow templateService visit work packetBefore a planned visit to a turbine, inverter or terminal asset, the maintenance supervisor gets one packet built from the logs and approved scope supplied: reported symptoms, previous visits, open parts requests and access questions. It judges no condition and sends nothing.Workflow templateShipment documentation checkWhen a job finishes, the shipping or quality lead gets one index comparing the order, the inspection records, the required certificates and the packing details, with each missing record and each quantity that does not agree set out. Nothing is certified or released.Workflow templateSite safety induction packFor 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.Workflow templateSOP exception captureTurn what your most experienced person does with the awkward cases into an exception register for one procedure. Once the owner approves it, every colleague handles those cases the way your best person does.Workflow templateStakeholder and decision rights mapBefore kickoff, the project manager holds one map of everyone the project touches: each group placed by influence and interest, every key decision with exactly one accountable owner, the decision makers still missing, and who hears what, when and from whom. The sponsor confirms every decision right.Workflow templateStock count reconciliationAfter 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.Workflow templateSupplier delivery date checkThe 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.Workflow templateTemporary change registerFor a site or operations manager with temporary changes to equipment, layout or process still in place: a register of every change with its expiry date, the checks still outstanding and the procedures and training it touches, ready for the competent person who decides what happens next.Workflow templateTraining needs analysisFor 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.Workflow templateVendor renewal reviewBefore a supplier's notice date, the operations lead takes one page to the decision: the dates counted from the ones you supply, how much of what you pay for is used, what it has cost and what renewal would cost, how the supplier has performed, and the questions to ask. Nothing is sent or cancelled.Workflow templateWorkflow fit check: is this piece of work ready for AI?Before you build anything, run one piece of work through six checks and get a straight answer on one short page: build it, build one part, do something simpler first, not yet, or leave it with your people. The owner decides what gets built first, with the reasons in front of them.Workflow templateWorkplace risk assessmentFor one task or workplace, the site or operations manager gets each hazard, who could be harmed, the controls already in place, a likelihood-and-severity rating before and after, and further controls with an owner and a date, ready for a competent person to review and sign.Workflow templateWrite an SOP from how the work is doneTurn a walkthrough of how one piece of work is really done into a written procedure anyone on the team can follow: who does each step, how they know it is done, what to do when it goes wrong and when to stop and ask. The owner approves it before anyone relies on it.Workflow templateWorkflows identified across logistics and trade
