An automation agency often ships a workflow. A deployment partner is responsible for whether that workflow survives real use.
01

Tool setup
Workflow logic
Basic testing
Handoff

Workflow owner
Review loop
Team training
Success metric
03

Low risk: automate
Medium risk: sprint
High change: pod
Complex ops: custom build
Questions to ask before the first sprint
Will the workflow need human review?
Who supports it after launch?
What happens when the input is messy?
