The project in view

Start with
sample stock records and refresh intervals.
Proposed result
a staff-facing availability lookup.
A decision to resolve
cached stock being treated as live availability.

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

Pilot planning for this project

  • Choose a small part of sample stock records and refresh intervals with an independently checkable result.
  • Produce a staff-facing availability lookup on that sample and record review corrections.
  • Include cached stock being treated as live availability in the pilot; do not expand the scope until its treatment is agreed.

Questions to answer together

  • Which sample includes both routine work and an exception?
  • What time, correction and completeness measures will be recorded?
  • What finding would require changing the scope before continuing?

What to have at the end

A pilot plan with a representative sample, review date and continuation decision.

Record the decision on cached stock being treated as live availability alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
