The Framework

Two paths to every task.

Start with actual work, such as invoice generation or website testing. Follow the workflow to see how it runs, and the role to see who builds, reviews and owns it. Task Intelligence examines the detailed activities behind that change; bespoke projects and environments make it practical.

Reimagine a Workflow
Dual Decomposition

Examine work through two paths

The People Path maps who does what. The Process Path maps how work flows. Both meet at the task: propose who does each step and define how it is checked.

Examine two questions: who does the work and how does the work flow. The People Path captures the first. The Process Path captures the second. Looking at only one can miss handoffs or ownership. Task Intelligence examines both.

Example: Procure-to-Pay crosses four departments

Finance
Approve purchase orders
Procurement
Evaluate supplier bids
Legal
Review contract terms
Operations
Confirm goods receipt

Each task has a different automation profile, but they share a single workflow. A change to one step can affect the others.

Task Intelligence Audit

Examine the changed responsibilities, capability gaps and evidence your owners need for a readiness decision. Use that review to scope preparation and further testing.

1
Identify candidate steps for agents and the checks they need
2
Set competency targets for humans who will supervise agents
3
Build role-specific readiness plans that match the new work split
4
Define validation standards tied to real task performance

Process Path: Workflow Level

Workflows cross departments

A single workflow touches multiple departments. Each task has its own automation profile, but they share a process. A change to one step can affect the others.

These are Nuvepro illustrations, not measured task mixes or APQC process maps. APQC explains how end-to-end processes connect activities across categories. Its taxonomy does not specify your sequence, decisions or owners.

The Full Chain

Connect analysis, practice and assessment

Understand the work, prepare people through practice, and assess what they can demonstrate.

Evidence for assessed responsibilities
Nuvepro provides assessment

Bring an invoice workflow, a testing task or another piece of enterprise work. Agree what your team will build and what evidence the owner needs.

Already have agents? Evaluate them in your enterprise workflow context →

Agree the engagement in three stages

Agree the workflow and responsibilities, choose relevant practice, and review the evidence.

Phase 01Scope agreed

Map the Work

Choose one workflow and interview the people who perform it. Map the agreed steps, records and decisions, then propose where agents could act, where they could assist and where people retain responsibility. Review exceptions, permissions and missing evidence before estimating impact.

  • Reviewed task map for the agreed workflow
  • Proposed task classifications and unresolved questions
  • Baseline and measures to agree for the workflow
  • Initial readiness gaps to examine
Phase 02Design reviewed

Design the Split

Your leadership reviews the classification and signs off on the division of work. Nuvepro designs the project readiness plan: GenAI Sandboxes, workflow simulations, and competency validation for each role's new responsibilities.

  • Leadership-approved task classification
  • Prioritized candidate changes, with stated impact assumptions and risks
  • Project readiness plan designed for each role's new responsibilities
  • Action plan with named owners and dates
Phase 03Evidence reviewed

Practise and Assess

Your people practise changed responsibilities in simulations and GenAI Sandboxes. Assessments provide evidence against agreed criteria. Agent evaluation and workflow acceptance are separate checks, and your owners decide when the work is ready for rollout.

  • Readiness evidence for the selected responsibilities and participants
  • Defined handoff protocols between agents and humans
  • Measurement plan for operating outcomes
