How it works.

01

Customer problem

Start with the problem, known context, systems and target.

02

Clarify

Identify missing decisions and ask the questions that matter.

03

Build the plan

Turn the clarified request into a structured Delivery Plan.

04

Optimize

Explore scope, sequence, phasing or approach when the target needs to change.

The result is one structured Delivery Plan — with trade-offs made explicit where the target requires them.

THE OUTPUT

Here is what the Delivery Plan looks like.

Customer request

Build a customer self-service web application with profile, orders, service requests and online payments.
Integrate with existing ERP and payment systems.
Target: first release in 2 months.

A concrete first-cut plan — ready to discuss, refine and take forward.

WORKED EXAMPLE

See the delivery decisions behind the plan.

Customer request

Build a customer self-service web application with profile, orders, service requests, online payments and email notifications. Integrate SAP S/4HANA and Stripe.

Target: first release in 2 months.

What the Copilot changes
01 · VALIDATE EARLYValidate SAP and Stripe in a thin technical slice before the first customer-facing release.
02 · PRIORITISEMake sign-in, profile, order, payment and email confirmation the first usable journey.
03 · SEQUENCECore customer journeys first; full service-request and deeper SAP processes later.
04 · PROTECT THE TARGETKeep the 2-month date by moving lower-priority functionality out of the first release when needed.
Weeks 1–2Technical validation + foundation
Weeks 3–5Core customer journey
Weeks 6–7Remaining integrations + UAT
Week 8First release

Illustrative example — not a client case study.

OPTIMIZE WITH AI

What if the target doesn’t fit?

Keep the 2-month date. Change what ships first.

For the SAP / Stripe request above, keep the core journey in the first release, validate a thin SAP slice early, and phase the full service-request journey or deeper SAP work if needed.

Scope
Sequence
Phasing
Approach

Spend less time turning requests into plans.

From request to first-cut plan

Start from a structured Delivery Plan instead of building the first cut from a raw customer request by hand.

Something the team can work with

Take the methodology, milestones, timeline and trade-offs into the next team or customer discussion — then refine from there.
