How can I tell a business process contains a sufficiency decision worth modelling?
A short checklist of observable signs that a process includes a gate where someone decides whether supplied documents are enough before work continues.
Use these signs to find processes where the sufficiency gate carries real weight, then scope generation around them.
- A named status exists such as Awaiting information, On hold, or Pending documents. - A written policy lists required items that vary by product, region or customer type. - Staff send templated requests that name specific missing items. - Files return from a later team because something was absent that should have been caught earlier. - The same document can be accepted in one case and rejected in another because of age, signatory or version. - A clock or service target pauses while the process waits for the customer. - Exceptions go to a supervisor when documents conflict or a requirement is waived.
A process with most of these signs will have enough variation for a task pack to include proceed, request and escalate outcomes. A process with only the first sign may be too simple to separate strong from weak judgement.
For each candidate workflow, note the domain (lending, claims, utility connections, supplier onboarding, patient referrals) and who holds the decision. That detail shapes the roles, policies and request records MirrorFirm would generate. All generated material is synthetic, so confirm in a sample that the patterns are plausible for your target domain.
The checklist helps a lab pick workflows where sufficiency judgement is a real, testable skill rather than a formality.
