TRANSFORMATION WORKBENCH

From assessment to evidence-backed action.

Build a reusable transformation dossier across processes, applications, vendor investigation, economics, RFP/POC, governance and roadmap. Every material item can be labelled by provenance and confidence so assumptions do not masquerade as evidence.

YOUR TRANSFORMATION WORKSPACE

Choose where you want to start

AutomationScan will use information you have already entered, preserve your work, and guide you to the next useful step.

Bring your evidenceStart with an application portfolio or spend / renewal register. The browser validates the structure before anything is added to the Workbench.
Expected fields: Application, Department, Annual Cost, Users, Business Owner, Renewal Date, Criticality, Integration Count, Contract Term. Spend files may use Vendor, Category, Amount, Currency, Renewal Date.
Bulk data entryDownload one complete Excel workbook containing every Workbench section and field. Fill the Your Answer column, then upload the same workbook once. Use the Application Portfolio and Evidence sections for structured source-backed inputs.

FOUNDATION

Transformation profile

Use the same context model across every downstream decision instead of repeating isolated questionnaires.

PROCESS INTELLIGENCE

Process health & treatment

Add processes and quantify effort, exceptions and errors. The workbench converts the inputs into a deterministic treatment lens.

APPLICATION PORTFOLIO

Application inventory & rationalisation

Build a simple application portfolio without requiring a connector. You can enter records manually or use the complete Excel workbook for bulk intake.

For bulk intake, use the complete Excel workbook above.

CAPABILITY MODEL

Capability map & gap analysis

Connect business capabilities to requirements, applications and evidence. Keep the model editable so it can reflect the organisation rather than a generic template.

DECISION ENGINE

Dynamic investigation set

Nothing is pre-ranked or hard-coded. Add the applications, platforms, vendors or specialists you want assessed and score them against your own requirements, processes, capabilities and evidence.

ECONOMICS

Editable TCO & business case

All figures are user-entered assumptions. No embedded benchmark is silently inserted.

VALIDATE BEFORE BUYING

RFP / RFI + POC pack

Generate a structured starting pack from your profile and investigation set. It is intentionally a draft, not a procurement commitment.

APPLICATION PORTFOLIO

Portfolio health & rationalisation

Turn the application inventory into a transparent disposition lens using value, technical health, usage, redundancy, lifecycle and integration complexity.

EXECUTE

POC, migration & transformation readiness

Capture evidence-led readiness rather than assuming implementation feasibility.

Migration readiness

GOVERN

Compliance, AI controls & risk

Connect a consideration to a requirement, capability, evidence and validation gate. Add risks that must be owned before a decision.

TRANSFORM

Roadmap builder

Create practical gates across 30/60/90 days, 6, 12 and 24 months. Ownership remains explicit.

REQUIREMENTS

Requirements library & traceability

Create reusable requirements and trace them to processes, candidates, evidence and validation gates.

VENDOR RESPONSE

Vendor response comparison

Paste or import structured response text. AutomationScan extracts requirement IDs, response status and evidence notes for side-by-side review. This is a comparison aid, not an autonomous procurement decision.

EVIDENCE MODEL

Claim & evidence register

Track provenance, freshness, confidence and validation status for vendor, capability and transformation claims. Use this register to separate what is known from what must be proved.

Recommended intake order: application inventory → spend / renewal records → process metrics → vendor evidence → POC results. If you only have estimates, mark them as User stated or Assumption.

Recommendation feedback

After using this brief, record whether the findings were useful. This improves traceability without changing the underlying evidence.

OUTPUT
