Workflow Redesign Documentation

Structured documentation of the before and after states of each business process where an AI system is being embedded — covering process maps, human-AI handoff points, role changes, exception handling paths, and the rationale for each design decision.

What this means in practice

It ensures that AI is integrated into redesigned workflows rather than simply bolted onto existing manual processes.

Context in the COMPEL framework

Produced in the Produce stage as the operational design complement to the technical build. Without documented workflow redesign, AI deployments frequently fail to deliver value because the surrounding process has not changed.

Where you see this

Workflow Redesign Documentation is most commonly referenced when teams work across the Produce stage — especially within the Value Realization layer . It appears in governance artifacts, assessment instruments, and delivery playbooks wherever COMPEL is operationalized.
