What it is

The Automation Opportunity Assessment maps where time goes in a commercial team and which tasks follow clear enough rules – or have good enough data – to be automated or supported by AI.

Each opportunity is assessed for hours saved, error reduction and effect on decisions, and weighed against the effort and risk of implementing it.

When to use it: Use it before investing in AI or automation tools, or when a team is stretched by recurring manual work.

What goes in

  • Process descriptions and time use
  • Rules and exceptions
  • Systems and data sources
