Design intent

What to do: State what changes and what must not degrade.

Primary objectiveState the main result the proposed process is designed to improve.Example: Reduce pick walking while keeping order-line accuracy at or above 99.8%Guardrail measuresList results that must not get worse.Example: Accuracy ≥99.8%; no increase in worker strainAssumptionsWrite one specific fact, concern, or item still needing proof.Example: Night-shift performance has not yet been measuredConstraintsList limits the design must obey, such as space, cutoff, safety, labor, or software limits.Example: Use existing 8-foot aisles; no work may miss the 4 p.m. carrier cutoffOut-of-scope workState exactly which work, area, shift, or cases are inside and outside the worksheet.Example: Zone A day shift; oversize orders excluded

Future steps

What to do: Define observable states.

This section is a list.Use one row for each task, observation, test, person, field, or requirement. Add more rows when needed.

Exceptions and fallback

What to do: Design recovery before go-live.

This section is a list.Use one row for each task, observation, test, person, field, or requirement. Add more rows when needed.

Validation

What to do: Tie the map to proof.

Pilot boundaryState exactly which work, area, shift, or cases are inside and outside the worksheet.Example: Zone A day shift; oversize orders excludedAcceptance metricUse a numeric limit that clearly means pass, pause, or fail.Example: At least 99.8% accuracyRequired event logName the photo, report, scan, system record, or observation that proves the answer.Example: Event log 14:32 and photo IMG-10482Cutover prerequisiteName something that must be complete before the new process can start.Example: All day-shift workers pass the shortage-recovery test
