Section 1: Workflow Conditions

Automation works only when workflows are repeatable.

Check whether:

• the same actions occur daily

• follow-up timing is predictable

• task ownership is clearly defined

• exceptions are limited

If most answers are “no,” automation will fail.

Section 2: Data Conditions

Automation depends on usable data.

Confirm that:

• contact and company fields are structured

• duplicates are controlled

• status updates are consistent

• data flows between systems

Poor data quality breaks automation logic.

Section 3: Execution Conditions

Automation replaces manual execution, not decisions.

Evaluate whether:

• actions rely on reminders

• execution quality varies by person

• manual checks are frequent

• errors go unnoticed

These are signals automation can address.

Section 4: Coordination Conditions

Automation reduces coordination overhead.

Check if:

• teams repeatedly ask for status

• handoffs require confirmation

• work stalls waiting for updates

High coordination cost indicates readiness.

Section 5: Control and Visibility Conditions

Automation must remain controllable.

Ensure that:

• execution logs are visible

• workflows can be adjusted

• ownership is assigned

Lack of visibility creates risk.

How to Interpret the Checklist

• Strong alignment → automation-ready

• Weak workflow + strong tools → high risk

• Strong workflow + weak data → delay automation

Automation succeeds only when conditions align.
