Does the customer know the next step, timing and responsible person?
The operating journey
Sales handoffs, service appointments, repairs and customer updates. Examine where information, responsibility and authority meet across this chain.
Trace the institutional condition
Trace the service journey across sales, workshop and support. Compare promised readiness with observed delivery and communication.
Set the first inquiry
Start with the question: Does the customer know the next step, timing and responsible person? Agree the baseline, owners, information access and review conditions. The output should make the next decision inspectable. Keep the institutional promise, lived experience and operating condition in the same inquiry. Leave the next observation with a named institutional owner.
Start with one consequential journey
A practical starting scope is service diagnosis through agreed repair handover. Map the promise made to the person using the service, the actual handovers, the authority to resolve an exception and the experience at each step. Review records alongside direct observation and participant accounts. A recurring complaint may reflect a broken process, unclear communication or both; establish which explanation the evidence supports before choosing training or a system change.
An assessment you can reproduce
Candidate measures: jobs accepted against agreed work / completed jobs; repeat visits for the same concern. Agree definitions, observation window and data owners before establishing a baseline. Inspect missing records and differences between teams instead of treating a mean as the whole story. Repeat the same measurement after the agreed intervention and test alternative explanations. These are starting measures to validate with the institution, not universal thresholds or claims of previous delivery.
