What to test first

Bring one workflow where the same project information is copied, checked, reformatted or chased across files.

The first diagnostic is free and focused on proving whether one workflow is a real automation candidate.

What Praeco would need to see

Praeco would need the current template, one or two past examples, the review rules, and a named person who signs off the output.

Client details can be removed or anonymised. The important part is seeing the real inputs, output format and review rule.
