Day 1 — Stakeholder interviews
30-min calls with each function head: where is time wasted, what tasks are most painful, what data exists.

Day 2 — Process mapping
Document the top 5–8 candidate processes end-to-end — inputs, decisions, outputs, frequency.

Day 3 — Quantification
For each process, calculate hours/week, fully-loaded cost, automation feasibility (1–5), business impact (1–5).
