Define what better means before AI-supported work moves from pilot to business case.

The exact sections inside the download.
Frame the operating decision
Which cycle time, handoff, or preparation step should improve? Which error, completeness, decision, or customer outcome should improve? Use the combined view to name the business outcome, source of truth, and owner who will decide whether to proceed.
Set the control boundary
Does AI reduce, shift, or increase human review work? How does model, tool, and operator cost compare with workflow value? State the risk to avoid, review or escalation route, and record needed to keep the workflow controlled.
Commit to the first move
What would prove the system is helping rather than creating hidden rework? Which single metric should leadership watch first? Record the smallest safe scope, baseline, owner, evidence, decision date, and next action.
Decision summary
Which single metric should leadership watch first? Which quality or risk signal prevents false success? Summarize the proposed move, operating benefit, and the evidence that supports it.
Evidence and control
Who reviews the scorecard and acts on weak signals? State the source, review boundary, accountable owner, and condition that would require revision or pause. Keep the decision receipt with the workflow record.
Next review
Record the decision owner, evidence source, review date, and the explicit condition to scale, revise, defer, or stop. Confirm how the resulting decision will be communicated, implemented, and retained in the operating record.
01 / 03
Frame the decision
Name the real operating need before designing a solution.
Name the AI-supported workflow, operating loop, or decision.
Capture time, cost, quality, error, or throughput before AI support.
Name who owns the outcome, not just the system.
How to use it
Start with one real decision.
Complete the canvas with the workflow owner, then use the blank areas to expose missing context and controls.
