How to use your results

Mark each item as Yes, Partly, or Not Yet during an internal review. Look for repeated gaps across document creation, governance, delivery, and integration. Prioritize one or two high-impact communications rather than trying to redesign everything at once.

Suggested discussion questions

  • Which communications generate the most customer questions or manual handling?
  • Where do template changes, approvals, or delivery depend on manual steps?
  • What must remain in the core system, and what could be improved in the communications layer?
  • What evidence would we need to demonstrate improvement?

Your checklist responses and notes are not submitted to DataOceans. They remain on this page until you leave or reload it.
