  1. 4.1File structure and naming
    • Set up a file structure and a naming system for the outputs of your AI skills.
    • AI can help you build both, before your first AI skill exists.
  2. 4.2Capture what your people know
    • Recorded walkthroughs and conversations keep what experienced people know, before it retires with them.
  3. 4.3What is possible: the two framers again
    • People do not know what they do not know. Examples of the work other contractors have handed to AI, by department, show what is possible.
    • With those examples, decide whether a routine needs to change, or only speed up.
  4. 4.4Audit your software for the workflow
    • Audit only the software in the routines you chose, not the whole company.
    • Apps you have to use and that connect: email, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.
    • Apps each department has to use: check each one against the institute's list of which platforms connect to AI, and how.
    • Apps that don't connect: how to get information out of them.
  5. 4.5The line in the sand
    • On one side: what you can set up on your own. On the other: apps that need custom engineering work to connect.
    • Work on the far side of the line is where a certified expert comes in, through your association.

What you will have at the end

A file structure and naming system, and a software audit for your workflow.
