The project in view

Start with
a sample price list and approved quote layout.
Proposed result
a draft quote for commercial review.
A decision to resolve
discount authority and outdated prices.

This is a planning example. It does not describe a completed client engagement.

Scope & boundaries for this project

  • Map the existing process before selecting automation. Keep a manual route for exceptions.
  • Use “a draft quote for commercial review” as the proposed deliverable; confirm what is included in that description.
  • Resolve this boundary early: discount authority and outdated prices.

Questions to answer together

  • Who uses the result, and what decision does it support?
  • Which part of the current process is included?
  • Which exceptions and adjacent tasks are excluded?

What to have at the end

A bounded scope with an owner, an intended result and explicit exclusions.

Record the decision on discount authority and outdated prices alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
