Productised implementation

A repeatable path from workflow discoveryto controlled production.

TEMRIK implementations are structured around standard stages, explicit acceptance gates and reusable artefacts. The aim is to reduce implementation effort per customer and per additional workflow without hiding customer-specific decisions.

Stage-gate rule

Progress when the artefact is accepted, not when configuration feels finished.

TEMRIK implementation method

Eleven stages. One standard implementation pack.

Indicative effort below means hands-on practitioner effort for one bounded workflow. It is not an elapsed-time promise: complexity, data readiness, integrations, customer availability and risk can materially change delivery effort.

01

Discovery

Select one bounded workflow with a named owner and measurable outcome.

Output

Implementation brief

Acceptance gate

Start/end boundary, owner and success measure are explicit.

Indicative effort

1–3 h

Can increasingly automate

Guided intake, qualification scoring, meeting-summary extraction

02

Workflow map

Document steps, systems, decisions, handoffs and exceptions as they operate today.

Output

Current-state and target-state map

Acceptance gate

Trigger, decisions, exceptions and terminal states are visible.

Indicative effort

2–6 h

Can increasingly automate

Interview-to-map drafting, SOP extraction, completeness checks

03

Data / evidence map

Define the information required before the workflow can decide or act.

Output

Evidence requirements matrix

Acceptance gate

Required evidence, source, freshness and missing-evidence behaviour are defined.

Indicative effort

1–4 h

Can increasingly automate

Schema suggestions, source discovery, evidence-gap detection

04

Authority map

Separate what AI can do from what the organisation permits it to do.

Output

Decision-authority matrix

Acceptance gate

Every consequential action has a ceiling, approver or explicit prohibition.

Indicative effort

1–4 h

Can increasingly automate

Policy extraction, authority suggestions, conflict detection

05

Playbook configuration

Encode evidence, rules, exceptions, stop conditions, outputs and approvals.

Output

Versioned playbook

Acceptance gate

The workflow can be reviewed without relying on undocumented prompt logic.

Indicative effort

2–8 h

Can increasingly automate

Template instantiation, rule linting, missing-field checks

06

Agent / tool configuration

Grant only the technical capabilities needed by the accepted workflow.

Output

Agent and tool permissions register

Acceptance gate

Least privilege matches the authority map and production credentials are controlled.

Indicative effort

2–10 h

Can increasingly automate

Permission presets, connector wizard, scope diffing

07

UAT

Test normal, edge, missing-data, uncertainty, malicious-input and tool-failure cases.

Output

UAT pack and defect log

Acceptance gate

Required cases pass or have accepted remediation and stop/escalation behaviour is proven.

Indicative effort

2–8 h

Can increasingly automate

Test generation, replay, trace comparison, defect clustering

08

Acceptance

Turn test evidence into an explicit production decision.

Output

Acceptance sign-off

Acceptance gate

Production scope, residual risks, rollback owner and monitoring responsibilities are recorded.

Indicative effort

0.5–2 h

Can increasingly automate

Digital gate, evidence completeness checks, e-sign workflow

09

Activation

Promote only the accepted configuration into production.

Output

Activation and release record

Acceptance gate

Production configuration matches the accepted scope and operators know the fallback path.

Indicative effort

1–4 h

Can increasingly automate

Environment diff, controlled promotion, release checklist

10

Monitoring

Collect operating evidence on quality, exceptions, interventions, cost and control.

Output

Post-launch review pack

Acceptance gate

The workflow has enough evidence to support a hold, tune, reduce or expand decision.

Indicative effort

1–3 h / review

Can increasingly automate

Scorecards, anomaly flags, review-pack generation

11

Expansion

Reuse proven organisation-level controls for the next workflow or boundary.

Output

Expansion decision and next workflow brief

Acceptance gate

The next boundary is explicit and inherited controls are revalidated.

Indicative effort

1–3 h

Can increasingly automate

Clone controls, reuse profiles, workflow opportunity scoring

Standard implementation pack

The handover should live in artefacts, not in one person’s memory.

The implementation pack is the transfer mechanism between TEMRIK, the customer and an enabled implementation partner.

Post-launch review

Authority before permissions

Capability does not equal permission.

Business authority is defined first. Agent and tool permissions are then constrained to that accepted boundary.

This connects with AI governance, AI security and AI playbooks.

Read

Retrieve approved context required for the task.

Prepare

Draft, classify, calculate, structure or assemble evidence.

Recommend

Propose a next step without committing the business.

Act

Execute only a specifically authorised operation inside an explicit ceiling.

Escalate

Stop and transfer control to the named human owner.

Prohibited

Do not perform the activity.

Partner-deployable by design

The standard path should not depend on one person architecting every workflow.

A trained partner should be able to qualify the workflow, complete the implementation pack, configure standard controls, run UAT, prepare acceptance evidence and conduct the first post-launch review.

Standard path

Partner follows templates, gates, permission rules and escalation criteria.

Exception path

Non-standard security, legal, architecture or policy decisions are escalated.

Reusable customer profile

Roles, data classifications, approved tools and common controls carry into later workflows.

Expansion economics

Each additional workflow should reuse more and rediscover less.

Standardise without pretending every customer is identical

What remains bespoke

Customer-specific decisions stay customer-specific.

The customer’s real workflow and exception logic

Source systems, data quality and legacy constraints

Delegated authority and approval thresholds

Legal, regulatory and jurisdiction-specific requirements

Custom APIs or non-standard integrations

High-consequence acceptance thresholds

What can become self-service

Repeatable configuration should increasingly move into product.

Guided workflow discovery

Evidence mapping questionnaire

Authority matrix builder

Playbook template selection

Standard connector and permission profiles

UAT case generation

Digital acceptance gates

Post-launch review dashboards

Self-service should not silently approve consequential authority, production permissions or unresolved policy conflicts. Those remain explicit acceptance decisions.

Implementation risk

The main implementation failures are usually boundary failures.

Workflow too broad

Force a start/end boundary and one measurable outcome.

Hidden operator knowledge

Use real operators in discovery and require an exception register.

Weak evidence definition

Define source, freshness and missing-evidence behaviour.

Authority ambiguity

Map business authority before granting agent or tool permissions.

Happy-path UAT

Require edge, missing, malicious, uncertainty and tool-failure tests.

Expansion too early

Treat a successful pilot as evidence for review, not unlimited permission.

Start with one bounded workflow

Standardise the implementation. Keep the authority explicit.

Map the workflow, evidence and authority first. Configure the playbook and permissions second. Test, accept, activate, observe and expand from operating evidence.
