YOUR OBJECTIVE COMES FIRST
ERP order intake rollout
Move a selected AI use case into work people can manage.
Mississippi Development Authority identifies advanced manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, agribusiness, maritime activity and logistics among the state’s industries. A useful scoping example is project-material readiness. Follow a work package, material reference and receiving confirmation through the work with project controls, receiving and production supervisors. A material marked as delivered may still be unavailable to the team responsible for the work package. What establishes that the material is ready for the assigned work package?
Mississippi Development Authority: industry context ↗01Define an operating boundary
Document which input starts the workflow, what output it creates and where human judgment remains necessary. Name the actions it is allowed to perform. A draft suggestion, a saved record and a customer-facing decision need different approval and recovery arrangements.
02Test quality with representative work
Use accepted examples, incomplete inputs and difficult exceptions to evaluate the selected capability. Review factual support, required-field accuracy and appropriate escalation. Keep evaluation examples and release decisions so a model or prompt change can be assessed against the same expectations. Working example: Validated order lines and an exception queue.
03Connect failure handling to an owner
Record processing states, meaningful error details and an accountable support route. Set bounded retries for temporary failures and protect against duplicate submissions. Staff need to distinguish work that has completed from work still waiting for review or recovery. For project-material readiness, agree how project controls, receiving and production supervisors contribute where those functions are involved.
04Make adoption part of the release
Introduce the workflow to a defined user group with role-based guidance and a way to report corrections. Measure use alongside review effort and output quality. Training should show when to challenge the result, not simply where to click. Review check: A repeated submission preserves one identifiable business record.
