Next steps, and what I need from you

The short, do-this version. Same caveat as the full guide: this is an early read of your brief, ahead of our discovery call — so nothing's locked, and "not sure yet" is a fine answer to anything. Read the full thinking already? This is your checklist. Haven't? It's the fast path through it.

Why we're doing it this way

Everything here points at one thing: we measure against real work. Wherever you see the ◆ mark, that's an artifact we use to set a baseline — the "before" we measure the "after" against. No vague claims about AI value. Real examples, real comparisons, real time saved.

The road, in one line

Where this fits

You're at step one: gather a few decisions and some real files. That feeds the discovery call — then the build starts.

What we're building

Your three tools, and the order we build them

Two quick wins first; the serious risk tool second. Each ends with a human check (in red) before anything goes out.

Tell me · the judgement calls

Decisions only you can make

Plain questions, each with a one-line why. None heavy.

Pivot Risk scoring — written down, or in your head?

A written method for rating risks — likelihood × consequence, and what each rating means? If not, one short session and we write it together, calibrated to SafeWork NSW. Biggest single swing in the plan.

Tell meShow me · if written

Ways of working — written, or in people's heads?

Step-by-step guides for how a project runs? If written, point me at them. If not, a short writing job at the start — not a blocker.

Tell meShow me · if written

Intake form — one standard starting point?

A standard kickoff form, or do we build the approved version together? It's the one input all three tools read from.

Tell meShow me · 3 filled-in copies

What counts as "approved" — final versus draft?

Where does signed-off, final data live, versus works-in-progress? The tools only ever touch approved material.

Tell me

Supplier brief templates — which categories have one?

Which supplier types already have a template — AV, styling, catering, entertainment, security, transport, venue — and which need building? I just need the gaps.

Tell meShow me · one of each that exists

◆ Risk sign-off — who signs, and at what level?

Who signs a risk register, and at what rating? Who signs a medium; who has to sign a high? The tool drafts; a named person signs and carries it.

Show me · real work to measure against

Two projects to pick

Ground truth comes from real projects. Choose two.

◆ A completed project — our first trial

One finished project — ideally with full approved supplier briefs ◆, a pitch deck that won ◆, and a signed risk register ◆. One project that hits all three lets us test every tool against work you actually delivered.

Show meBaseline ◆

A live project — for the real-conditions run

One current, in-flight project — fair game for a second run under real pressure.

Tell me · pick one
05
Switch on · mostly confirmations

Access to make explicit

Largely things I already have — just made explicit for this purpose. Nothing onerous.

Figma — confirm I'm into the design library

So the pitch builder can drop into your real components instead of rebuilt copies.

Confirm

Drive — just a yes

Your explicit OK to use the brand and project files to build the tools, not only to look at them.

Confirm

Fonts & images — flag anything licence-restricted

Any paid fonts or licensed images whose licence limits reuse outside BLE.

Tell me
What happens next

You gather; then we sit down and make it real.

Work through the questions, pull the files together — then the next step is our discovery call, where this early sketch meets how BLE really runs and the scope gets real. From there I build and run the first tool on my own machine here, and you see it side by side with the real thing: your first visible win.
