Practical steps

Use this as a working checklist. The advice is useful on its own; MyTitan is introduced only where the workflow naturally benefits from being connected.

Step 1

Document the best current version

Standardisation starts with the process that already works best, not an abstract process map nobody follows.

  • Choose one repeat workflow
  • Write the actual steps
  • Identify where judgement is still needed
Step 2

Turn judgement into checkpoints

Not everything should be automated. Some steps need a human decision, but that decision still needs a clear trigger.

  • Name approval points
  • Define required evidence
  • Record who can decide
Step 3

Review the standard after real use

A standard process should improve after it meets real customer work.

  • Collect exceptions
  • Update templates carefully
  • Avoid adding fields that nobody uses
Example

What this looks like in practice

  • A recurring maintenance job uses the same checklist.
  • Approval evidence is required before work starts.
  • A completed job always creates a billing next step.
Checklist

Before you move on

  • The process fits real work.
  • Required evidence is clear.
  • The standard can be improved without breaking old records.
