Business workflow
From assessment to accepted work
How Sufrone moves a need through qualification, paid discovery, proposal versioning, approval, acceptance, conversion, and delivery handoff.
Why the workflow is evidence-driven
Sufrone avoids jumping from a broad enquiry directly to a large implementation promise. The platform records the operational problem, quantified impact, authority, budget, urgency, access to data, technical fit, commercial fit, approval process, and disqualification evidence before recommending the next commercial step.
This protects the client from buying the wrong intervention and protects Sufrone from promising scope that has not been investigated.
Commercial steps
- Initial assessment identifies the problem and routes it to a declared offer.
- Qualification records buying and delivery evidence and produces a transparent score and next step.
- Paid audit or rescue diagnostic is used when scope, data, risk, or system condition is not yet sufficiently known.
- Pilot is used when value or feasibility should be proven within a bounded workflow before wider implementation.
- Implementation proposal defines the accepted outcome, evidence, deliverables, responsibilities, acceptance criteria, exclusions, assumptions, risks, timeline, pricing, and payment boundaries.
- Retainer defines an ongoing service relationship with explicit included work and operating boundaries.
Immutable versions and approval
Every material proposal state is captured as an immutable version with price, currency, tax, validity, scope, terms, structured document data, source fingerprint, content hash, author, and timestamp. Founder approval applies to one exact version. Changing the commercial content after approval creates a different version that must be reviewed again.
This is why Sufrone does not treat a mutable proposal row as sufficient evidence of what the client accepted.
Acceptance and handoff
Acceptance is valid only when the latest sent version is commercially complete, still valid, and carries the required approval evidence. Conversion then creates or repairs a marker-bound delivery work order, client kickoff task, and internal billing-preparation task without duplicating them on retries.
