Jobs live in spreadsheets, technicians get updates by text, and the office re-enters completed work for invoicing.

Decisions
Which accounting system, who approves completed work, and whether field staff need offline access.

Measure: office time per job and duplicate entries.

Decisions
Available system interfaces, data freshness, and which records each customer may see.

Measure: status enquiries and customer adoption.

Define success before writing code.

A useful project brief records the current process, the proposed change, and how you will compare the result. We agree those measures during discovery, alongside the technical acceptance criteria.
