RIVERSIDE STATECONTACT NAMEDSTAKEHOLDERS IN ROOMSURVEY DATECOMMS CHANNEL
MODULE 01 · ~15 MIN

The contract is signed. From this meeting on, the deployment is yours.

The story: Riverside Women's Health is a busy OB/GYN clinic — three supply rooms, hundreds of SKUs, staff who run out of gloves at the worst moments. They just signed with Autonomi to replace their supply closets with smart supply rooms. You're the operations lead taking it from signed contract to go-live.

Every module in this program follows this one Riverside deployment, phase by phase. It starts with a single meeting — and that meeting sets the scope, the people, and the clock for everything that follows.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

The Riverside deal just closed. The AE forwards you one line: "GM is excited, wants to move fast — take it from here?"

No contact list. No scope doc. Nothing scheduled. Your first move?

✓ RIGHTThe handoff runs through Sales: they owe you a designated contact and the stakeholder picture. Then you schedule the kickoff, with the agenda in the invite. Structure now beats speed now.
✗ FAST START, SLOW MIDDLEYou're building on sand — no designated contact, no stakeholder map, no confirmed scope. The GM may not even be your contact. Get the handoff from Sales first.
✗ WRONG OWNERIf Sales keeps running communications, you'll fight two-channel chaos all deployment. The handoff moves ownership to ops — take it.
THE HANDOFF

Ownership moves from Sales to Ops — through one named contact.

1Sales hands you a designated contact on the customer's support team
2You schedule the kickoff — call or meeting, agenda in the invite
3From kickoff on, ops runs the deployment — one channel, one owner
Deployments die in diffuse communication. One named contact means every request has one door and every decision has an owner on their side. Without it, the SKU list comes from one person, the room access from another, and nobody feels responsible when a date slips. You'll meet more stakeholders at kickoff — but the contact is who you chase, and who chases for you.
WHO'S IN THE ROOM

Three perspectives, or you're planning blind.

General Manager (GM)Runs the customer's day-to-day. Your designated contact usually sits here.KNOWS HOW THE FACILITY ACTUALLY RUNS
Regional ManagerOwns budget, access decisions, and logistics commitments.CAN SAY YES TO DATES AND DOORS
Site Leader & nursesOwn how supplies are actually used, room by room.KNOWS WHAT RUNS OUT ON THURSDAYS
Because the room you're deploying serves clinical workflows, and only clinical staff know them. The GM knows the contract; the nurse knows that speculums disappear twice as fast in exam room 3, that the morning rush needs eye-level placement, that a locked cabinet at 7 AM is a crisis. Every deployment that skipped clinical input at kickoff paid for it at the planogram — or worse, after go-live in adoption.
THE AGENDA · COPY IT STRAIGHT INTO THE INVITE

Nine items. They build toward one exit.

1High-level overview of the Autonomi system
2Autonomi personnel & roles
3Customer personnel & roles
4Confirmation of project scope
5Implementation timeline & key milestones
6Roles, responsibilities, points of contact
7Site survey prerequisites & readiness
8Scheduling of the site survey
9Communication cadence & next steps
The site survey is the gate to the entire timeline — room plans, SKU planning, logistics, install date all queue behind it. Items 1–7 are alignment; item 8 is commitment. A kickoff that ends with warm feelings but no survey date produced alignment about nothing. Item 7 exists so item 8 can happen: prerequisites reviewed, then the date goes on the calendar.
TRY IT

It's 9:55. Kickoff ends at 10:00, three items still uncovered. Which one do you refuse to leave without?

✓ RIGHTThe survey gates everything downstream. SKU requirements can go by email tomorrow; an install date promised before the survey is a guess you'll be held to.
✗ NOT QUITESKU requirements can follow by email; an install date before the survey is a guess you'll be held to. The one thing that can't leave the room unscheduled: the site survey — it gates the entire timeline.
CHECK 1 OF 3

The GM says: "No need to drag a nurse into this — I can speak for the clinical side."

✓ RIGHTSeniority isn't knowledge. The GM knows the day-to-day; the site leader and nurses know the clinical workflows the room must serve. Frame it as protecting the GM's timeline — that's what it does.
✗ NOT QUITEThe GM knows the day-to-day, not the Thursday-morning supply rush. Scope confirmed without input from the site leader and nurses gets re-litigated at the planogram — or after go-live. Politely insist now; it protects the GM's own timeline.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The kickoff went great — but it's ending with "we'll get back to you on survey dates."

✓ RIGHT"We'll get back to you" is where timelines go to die. A held date plus a decision deadline turns their silence into a schedule instead of a stall — politely, and in the meeting.
✗ NOT QUITEUnbounded "we'll get back to you" quietly eats two weeks. The move happens inside the meeting: hold a specific date, set a confirm-by deadline, offer the fallback. Their silence then produces a schedule, not a stall.
CHECK 3 OF 3

A week after kickoff, the GM is still emailing the AE with implementation questions.

✓ RIGHTTwo-channel comms is how scope drifts — the AE answers generously, and suddenly you own promises you never made. Redirect warmly, both sides, no drama.
✗ NOT QUITELetting it ride means the AE keeps making well-meant promises you'll have to keep; scolding the GM burns goodwill. The fix is quiet and two-sided: AE redirects every thread to you, you restate the channel with the GM.

1.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Following contract execution, an initial meeting is conducted with the customer's support staff. Depending on the facility, participants may include an operations representative, a general manager or administrator, and/or a clinical representative such as a nurse.

The kickoff is Phase 01 of the ten-phase implementation process. Nothing else can start before it: the site survey (Phase 02) is scheduled here, the stakeholders who will own the SKU list (Phase 03) and logistics (Phase 05) are identified here, and the communication structure that carries the whole deployment is agreed here. A weak kickoff does not fail loudly — it fails three phases later, as missing data owners, surprise stakeholders, and an unscheduled survey.

1.2 · THE HANDOFF — SALES TO OPERATIONS

  1. The Sales team provides Operations with a designated contact person from the customer's support team.
  2. Operations schedules an introductory call or meeting with the support team — the agenda goes in the invite.
  3. From the kickoff onward, Operations runs the deployment on a single communication channel.

Why one designated contact

Deployments die in diffuse communication. A single named contact means every request has one door and every decision has an owner on the customer's side. Without it, the SKU list arrives from one person, room access is granted by another, and nobody feels responsible when a date slips. More stakeholders will attend the kickoff — but the designated contact is who Operations chases, and who chases on Operations' behalf.

Why Operations schedules — not Sales

If Sales keeps running communications after contract execution, the deployment fights two-channel chaos: the account executive answers customer questions generously, and Operations inherits promises it never made. The kickoff is where the customer learns, implicitly and explicitly, that Operations is now the voice of Autonomi.

1.3 · WHO IS IN THE ROOM

PARTICIPANTBRINGSRISK IF ABSENT
General Manager (GM)Day-to-day operational knowledge; usually the designated contact.No anchor for follow-ups; requests float unowned.
Regional ManagerAuthority over budget, access, and logistics — can say yes to dates.Nothing agreed is binding; every decision needs a second meeting.
Site Leader & nursesHow supplies are actually used, room by room, shift by shift.Scope re-litigated at the planogram — or after go-live, as poor adoption.

Authority is not knowledge: the regional manager can commit budget and dates, and the GM runs the day-to-day — but only the site leader and nurses know the supply workflows the room must serve. If the GM offers to "speak for the clinical side," politely insist on including the site leader or a nurse, and frame it as protecting the timeline — which is exactly what it does.

1.4 · THE AGENDA, ANNOTATED

The nine items below can be copied directly into the calendar invite. Items 1–7 build alignment; item 8 is the commitment the meeting exists to produce; item 9 locks the channel.

AGENDA ITEMWHAT GOOD LOOKS LIKE
1 · System overviewFive minutes, demo-flavored, jargon-free. The clinical rep should leave able to describe the smart room to a colleague.
2 · Autonomi personnel & rolesThe customer knows who does what — and that Operations, not Sales, is the voice from here on.
3 · Customer personnel & rolesConfirm the designated contact in front of everyone. Note names for the Phase 07 user list.
4 · Scope confirmationRooms, departments, and components restated aloud and agreed. Surprises surface now, not at the survey.
5 · Timeline & milestonesThe ten-phase arc at a glance, with dependencies named: survey gates planning; customer logistics gate installation.
6 · Roles & points of contactEach side leaves with named owners: data (SKU list), facilities (electrical/LAN), access (users), scheduling.
7 · Survey prerequisitesAccess to all deployment areas confirmed as arrangeable; escort/badge requirements identified.
8 · Schedule the site surveyA date on the calendar — or a held date with a confirm-by deadline. This is the exit condition of the meeting.
9 · Comms cadence & next stepsWeekly cadence (or agreed rhythm), one channel, through the designated contact and the Autonomi lead.

1.5 · EXIT CRITERIA — DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT

Site survey scheduled — or a held date with a hard confirm-by deadline ("I'll hold next Thursday; confirm by Friday or we take the following Tuesday").
Points of contact named on both sides — the designated customer contact and the Autonomi lead.
Communication cadence agreed — one channel, through Operations.
Scope confirmed aloud — rooms, departments, components, with objections surfaced.

Of these, the survey date is the one that cannot slip: the site survey gates room planning, SKU planning, logistics, and ultimately the installation date. SKU requirements can follow by email tomorrow; an install date promised before the survey is a guess Operations will be held to.

Site Survey & Room Planning

PHASE 02 OF 10LED BY AUTONOMION-SITE VISIT
RIVERSIDE STATEALL AREAS WALKEDINFRASTRUCTURE CHECKEDACCESS PLANNEDDEPLOYMENT PLAN
MODULE 02 · ~15 MIN · ON-SITE

You're standing in Riverside's supply room. Everything you miss today, you pay for on install day.

The survey is where the plan meets the building. You map every deployment area, check power, network and mounting, and settle how the door locks — then leave with a room list nobody can dispute.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

The GM walks you to the main supply room and says: "This is it — the other two rooms are basically the same, you can just copy this one."

You have the morning booked for the survey. What do you do?

✓ RIGHTEvery deployment area gets surveyed and documented — no exceptions. Rooms that are "basically the same" differ in the one dimension that matters: a column, a shorter wall, a different door, one power outlet instead of two. You map it now or you discover it with a truck full of hardware on install day.
✗ THAT'S HOW INSTALL DAY BREAKSCopying a room you didn't measure means trusting that three rooms are identical — they never are. The survey exists precisely to catch the differences. Walk all three yourself.
✗ PHOTOS AREN'T A SURVEYA photo doesn't give you wall type, outlet count, port location, or ceiling height — the things mounting and cabling depend on. Survey every area to the same standard.
WHAT A SURVEY COVERS

Seven things you leave the building knowing.

1Review the facility layout & the areas marked for deployment
2Create or validate floor & room layouts in Space Planning Software
3Confirm exactly which rooms are in scope
4Assess infrastructure: power, network, mounting
5Plan the access-control method — consult a locksmith
6Validate room configurations against operational workflows
7Identify constraints, risks & dependencies
A tape measure gives you numbers; Space Planning Software (Riverside is mapped in floorplanner.com) gives you a shared, reviewable model everyone plans against. The planogram, the cabinet placement, and the installers all read from the same layout. A measurement in your notebook helps you; a validated floor plan in the system helps the whole deployment — and survives the day you're out sick.
THE INFRASTRUCTURE TRIAD

Three systems the room has to give you.

PowerDedicated circuit and outlet placement where the cabinet and units will sit — not a shared break-room circuit.CAPTURE: OUTLET LOCATIONS · CIRCUIT · LOAD
NetworkLAN/port availability and the drop location relative to the cabinet mount.CAPTURE: PORT LOCATION · DISTANCE TO CABINET
MountingWall type, load capacity, and obstructions where shelves and screens attach.CAPTURE: WALL TYPE · CEILING · CLEARANCES
Shelves, trays, and screens hang on the wall and carry weight. Drywall over steel studs, masonry, and hollow partition behave completely differently under load — the wrong anchor pulls out. If you can't confirm wall or ceiling type on the day, it becomes an open action item with an owner, never a guess: a mount that fails is a safety issue in a room with patients.
ACCESS CONTROL

The door is part of the system.

1Decide the access-control method for the room during the survey
2Consult a locksmith on compatibility with the existing door & hardware
3Map it to the roles: yellow key for consumers, blue fob for suppliers
Access control touches the customer's physical door — the one thing you can't reorder overnight. A door that won't take the planned hardware, a fire-code constraint, a lock that needs replacing: found at the survey, it's a line item in the customer's Phase 05 prep. Found on install day, it's a room you can't secure and a system you can't hand over.
TRY IT

The supply room's only outlet is a single 15-amp circuit already shared with a break-room fridge. What goes in the survey report?

✓ RIGHTThe survey's job is to turn every gap into a documented action the customer completes before delivery. A shared 15-amp circuit is a gap; naming it now puts a dedicated circuit into their pre-install checklist, where the site survey documentation says it belongs.
✗ NOT QUITEHoping it's fine, or calling it someone else's problem, is how install day stalls. The survey documents the gap and assigns it: the customer installs electrical infrastructure per the survey before delivery. Flag it, own the follow-through.
CHECK 1 OF 3

The GM asks you to skip the third room — "it's a closet we barely use" — to wrap the survey faster.

✓ RIGHTScope is confirmed at the survey, room by room. An in-scope room you didn't document is a fight waiting to happen: was it in the deal? does it need hardware? Survey it, or get written confirmation it's out of scope — never assume.
✗ NOT QUITE"Assumed" and "survey it later" are how scope slips and install day runs long. If the room is in the deployment, it gets the full survey now; if it's truly out, get that in writing. No undocumented rooms.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The room's only network port is 40 ft from where the cabinet must mount for the planogram to work.

✓ RIGHTNetwork ports are installed per the site survey documentation — that's a customer pre-install task. Document the required drop location now and it gets built before delivery. The cabinet stays where the planogram needs it.
✗ NOT QUITEA floor-run cable in a clinical space is a trip hazard and a no; moving the cabinet breaks the planogram you'll build in Phase 04. The survey's answer is to specify the network drop so the customer installs it as Phase 05 prep.
CHECK 3 OF 3

Mid-survey you realize you can't confirm the ceiling type for mounting without facilities, and they've left for the day.

✓ RIGHTEvery unknown leaves the survey as an action item with an owner and a due date before install. Mounting is load-bearing in a room with patients — an assumed ceiling that's wrong is a failed mount. Name the gap, assign it, date it.
✗ NOT QUITEGuessing a load-bearing surface or punting it to installers is how a mount fails in a live clinical room. The survey output includes action items, owners, and timelines — this is one: facilities confirms ceiling type before install.

2.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Following the initial support-team meeting, an on-site survey is conducted to assess the facility's physical environment and confirm room-level requirements. The survey includes detailed room planning using Space Planning Software to accurately map the facility layout and support system design.

The survey is the gate the whole timeline waits behind: SKU and shelf planning (Phase 03), the planogram (Phase 04), and customer logistics (Phase 05) all build on the finalized room list and deployment plan produced here. Its output is only as good as its completeness — an area skipped or an unknown left as a guess resurfaces on install day at maximum cost.

2.2 · PROCESS & OBJECTIVES

  1. Operations schedules and conducts an on-site survey with the customer's designated contacts.
  2. The survey is performed at the facility and requires access to all areas included in the deployment.
  3. Floor and room layouts are documented in Space Planning Software (Riverside: floorplanner.com).

MountingWall type, ceiling type, load capacity, obstructions and clearances.A wrong-anchor mount fails under load — a safety issue with patients present.

2.5 · ACCESS CONTROL & THE LOCKSMITH

The room's door is part of the system. The access-control method is decided during the survey, with a locksmith consulted on compatibility with the existing door and hardware. Access maps to the role model: yellow key for consumers who retrieve supplies, blue fob for suppliers who replenish. A door constraint discovered at the survey is a customer pre-install task; discovered on install day, it is a room that cannot be secured or handed over.

SKU List & Shelf Planning

PHASE 03 OF 10LED BY CUSTOMER + AUTONOMIREMOTE — DATA & DESIGN
RIVERSIDE STATEFIELDS VALIDATEDCELLS SIZEDTRAYS CALCULATEDLIST FROZEN
MODULE 03 · ~15 MIN

One customer spreadsheet decides every shelf, tray, and cell in the room.

Everything physical downstream is calculated from the SKU list. This is the phase where ops earns — or loses — the timeline. Back to Riverside: install is eight days out.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

Riverside's SKU list finally lands — 300 rows. But 12 have no min/max, and 6 have no SKU code. Install is in 8 days.

What do you do in the next hour?

✓ RIGHT — THIS IS THE JOBData accuracy is the customer's responsibility; keep it there. Naming the exact rows makes the fix easy, the deadline protects your planning window, and flagging risk early means nobody is surprised later.
✗ TEMPTING — AND HOW TIMELINES DIEYou just took ownership of the customer's data. When your guessed min/max is wrong, the trays are wrong — and it's now your error. Never guess inventory levels. Bounce it back today.
✗ "FLEXIBLE SPACE" ISN'T A PLANShelf count and tray sizes are calculated, not padded. 18 unknown SKUs could need one tray or a full shelf — and install week is the most expensive time to find out. Force the fix now.
THE RULE

A SKU list is complete when it has five fields.

1Product name
2Product SKU code
3Min level
4Max level
5Department — only when a room is shared by multiple departments
Because whoever fixes the data owns the data. These fields drive physical calculations — min/max sets tray count, the SKU code retrieves product dimensions. If ops guesses a value and the tray comes out wrong, the error transfers from customer to Autonomi, along with the cost of re-cutting trays on install week. Bouncing it back keeps ownership where the contract puts it: the customer provides accurate data; ops validates it.
SIZING A CELL

Three methods. Trust them in this order.

1 · DimensionsRecommended items-per-cell × box or item dimensions = space required. Ground truth.PREFERRED — USE WHENEVER DIMENSIONS EXIST
2 · ReferenceLook the product up in the Autonomi system; reuse a calculation from another account.RELIABLE — VERIFIED BY A REAL DEPLOYMENT
3 · AI assistChatGPT or Claude with cell sizes, full description, and manufacturer.LAST RESORT — NEVER SHIP WITHOUT A SANITY CHECK
The methods are ranked by how the number was verified. Dimensions are physical fact. A reference already survived a real deployment — someone stocked that tray and it worked. An AI estimate has survived nothing: it's a plausible guess about box sizes. A cell 2 cm too small doesn't fail on your screen — it fails on install day, with the product physically not fitting. Speed is worthless if the room has to be re-cut.
MIN vs MAX

One number shapes steel. The other shapes behavior.

MAXThe ceiling. Right after replenishment every unit up to max is physically present — so tray capacity must cover the max. Max drives the tray count.
MINA trigger, not a size. When on-hand hits min, the system flags the SKU and Suppliers replenish. Min drives timing, not space.
e.g.Speculum, min 4 / max 20, tray holds 8 → 20 ÷ 8, round up = 3 trays. Sizing to min (4) would overflow on the first restock.
Because the shelf has to hold the room's fullest moment, not its emptiest. Max is when every unit is present and needs a slot; min is just the level that says "reorder now." Size trays to min and every replenishment overflows the cell. One number shapes the steel you install; the other shapes the behavior of the people restocking it.
TRY IT

The list is approved and frozen. Two weeks before install, the customer adds 40 "forgotten" SKUs.

✓ RIGHTThe freeze isn't a wall, it's a gate. Changes re-enter through impact assessment — and the customer decides with the real cost in front of them. Quiet absorption hides the cost; flat refusal burns the relationship.
✗ NOT QUITEThe freeze is a gate, not a wall. 40 SKUs may shift shelf count, tray sizes, even the install date — the move is a structured impact assessment the customer signs off on.
CHECK 1 OF 3

A product has no dimensions on file, but you find it was planned for another account last quarter. The GM says "just ask ChatGPT, it's faster."

✓ RIGHTMethod 2 (reference) outranks Method 3 (AI). Real planning data from another account was verified by an actual deployment. AI is the last resort — and even then it gets a sanity check.
✗ NOT QUITEThe hierarchy is dimensions → reference → AI. Verified data from another account exists, so it wins. Averaging a verified number with an unverified guess only degrades the verified one.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The Department field is blank on every row of an otherwise perfect SKU list. When is that a problem?

✓ RIGHTDepartment is conditionally required: it matters exactly when more than one department uses the same room, because it determines how the room is segmented. Single-department rooms don't need it.
✗ NOT QUITEDepartment is the one conditional field — required only when departments share a room. Blanket rejection wastes a cycle; ignoring it in a shared room breaks the planogram.
CHECK 3 OF 3

A row on the otherwise-clean list lists a max of 2,000 boxes of gauze for a small clinic. Obvious typo.

✓ RIGHTValidation isn't just blank fields — it's values that can't be true. A max of 2,000 would consume shelves the room doesn't have. You don't fix it yourself (that's guessing); you bounce it as a data-quality check, same as a missing field.
✗ NOT QUITESizing to 2,000 eats the whole room; capping it yourself means you now own a number you invented. Validation includes implausible values — flag it back to the customer to correct, don't guess.

THE FIVE REQUIRED FIELDS

A SKU list is complete only with: product name · SKU code · min level · max level, plus department when a room is shared. Anything less goes back — no guessing.

SIZING A CELL · IN ORDER OF TRUST

METHODWHEN
1 · DimensionsPreferred — items-per-cell × box size. Use whenever dimensions exist.
2 · ReferenceReliable — reuse a calculation from another account in the system.
3 · AI assistLast resort — never ship without a sanity check.

MIN vs MAX

Max shapes steel; min shapes behavior. Tray capacity must cover the max (max ÷ units-per-tray, round up). Min is the reorder trigger, not a size.

DON'T LEAVE WITHOUT

TRAPS

TRAPTHE MOVE
Accepting an incomplete list "to save time"Bounce it same-day with exact rows named; data accuracy is the customer's.
Treating AI-assist as authoritativeIt's method 3 of 3 — sanity-check every AI-sized cell.
Not locking the list after approvalState the freeze in writing; late changes shift config, timeline, scope.

3.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

After the room layout and space planning are complete, the customer's SKU list is collected to plan the shelf configuration. The SKU list determines the number of shelves, tray sizes, and the overall storage configuration — every physical decision downstream is calculated from it.

This is the phase where the timeline is most exposed to data quality. A late or inaccurate list shifts shelf configuration, tray sizing, and the install date. Ops validates; the customer owns accuracy.

3.2 · THE FIVE REQUIRED FIELDS

At a minimum, the SKU list must include the following, used to retrieve product dimensions and calculate storage capacity.

FIELDWHY IT'S NEEDED
Product nameHuman identification of the item.
Product SKUUnique code used to retrieve dimensions and reference data.
Min levelReorder trigger — when on-hand hits it, replenishment is flagged.
Max levelPhysical ceiling — tray capacity must cover it.
DepartmentConditional — only when multiple departments share one room; drives in-room segmentation.

3.3 · PLANNING SCOPE

Determine the required shelf count.
Determine tray sizes based on product dimensions.
Calculate the number of trays per SKU from min/max levels.
Validate that shelf and tray configuration aligns with the approved room layout (Phase 02).

3.4 · SIZING A CELL — THREE METHODS

The methods are ranked by how the number was verified. Use the highest available; never let a lower method override a higher one.

METHODHOWTRUST
1 · DimensionsRecommended items-per-cell × box or item dimensions → space required.Ground truth. Preferred.
2 · ReferenceLook the product up in the Autonomi system; if planned for another account, reuse that data.Verified by a real deployment.
3 · AI assistChatGPT or Claude with cell sizes, full product description, and manufacturer.Unverified — last resort, always sanity-checked.

3.5 · MIN, MAX, AND PHYSICAL CAPACITY

The min level is an operational trigger: when on-hand count reaches min, the SKU is flagged for replenishment and Suppliers see it in their queue. The max level is a physical commitment: tray capacity must cover it entirely, because immediately after replenishment every unit up to max is present in the cell. Sizing to anything less than max guarantees overflow on the first restock. Worked example: min 4 / max 20, a tray holds 8 → ⌈20 ÷ 8⌉ = 3 trays.

3.6 · DATA OWNERSHIP

The customer is responsible for providing an accurate and complete SKU list, including correct identifiers and min/max levels. Ops validates — blank fields and implausible values (a max of 2,000 gauze boxes for a small clinic) are bounced back the same day, with the exact rows named. Ops never fills gaps or "fixes" values itself; doing so transfers ownership of the error. Changes after approval may impact shelf configuration, timelines, and deployment scope.

3.7 · OUTCOMES

Approved SKU list for deployment.
Finalized shelf and tray configuration.
Confirmation that the storage design supports operational requirements and inventory levels — then the list is frozen.

Planogram Planning

PHASE 04 OF 10LED BY AUTONOMIREMOTE — DESIGNLAST PHASE OF STAGE 1
RIVERSIDE STATEGROUPED BY WORKFLOWVALIDATED vs TRAYSIN APPROVED TOOLPLANOGRAM APPROVED
MODULE 04 · ~15 MIN

The shelves are sized. Now decide what goes where.

You've got Riverside's approved SKU list and tray configuration from Phase 03. The planogram is the map of every product's home on the shelf — and a good one is the difference between staff grabbing a glove in two seconds or hunting for it mid-procedure.

This is the last phase of Stage 1. Clear it and the plan is locked.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

You're laying out Riverside's planogram. The GM says: "Just put everything in alphabetical order — easiest for staff to find things."

Sounds reasonable. Is it?

✓ RIGHTA planogram optimizes shelf-space and organizes products by operational workflow, category, and usage — not the alphabet. Items used together sit together; high-velocity items land within easy reach. Then you validate placement against tray sizes and min/max levels.
✗ TIDY, BUT WRONGAlphabetical scatters a procedure's supplies across the room — gauze here, gloves three shelves away. Staff don't work in alphabetical order; they work in workflows. Group by how the room is actually used.
✗ OPTIMIZES THE WRONG PERSONSupplier convenience matters, but the planogram is built around the people who retrieve supplies all day, organized by workflow and usage. Replenishment efficiency is validated after, not the organizing principle.
WHAT A PLANOGRAM DOES

It turns a shelf of boxes into a workflow.

1Optimizes shelf-space utilization
2Groups products logically by operational workflow
3Organizes by category, usage, or other defined criteria
4Validates placement against tray sizes and min/max levels
5Reviews accessibility, replenishment efficiency, and usability
Because the shelf serves work, not filing. Staff reach for supplies in the sequence of a task — so the layout is organized by workflow and usage, the way Space Planning Software organizes the room. Alphabetical or vendor order optimizes for a sorting logic nobody uses at the point of care, and quietly slows every retrieval.
THE PLACEMENT LOGIC

Three lenses, applied together.

By workflowItems used in the same procedure sit adjacent — grab them in one motion.ADJACENCY = FEWER STEPS PER TASK
By velocityHigh-turnover items go at eye level and easiest reach; rare items to the edges.PRIME SPACE FOR FAST MOVERS
By categoryLike with like — gloves with gloves, dressings with dressings.PREDICTABLE, LEARNABLE LAYOUT
Eye-level and mid-reach is the prime real estate of any shelf — fastest to see, fastest to grab, no bending or reaching. Put the items retrieved dozens of times a day there and you shave seconds off the most frequent action in the room. Bury a fast mover on the bottom shelf and you tax staff on every single retrieval.
VALIDATE BEFORE YOU SHIP

A pretty layout that doesn't fit is worthless.

1Placement fits the tray sizes from Phase 03
2Each cell holds the SKU's max level — no overflow
3Accessible for consumers retrieving supplies
4Efficient for suppliers to replenish
5Built in the approved planogram tool and required data format
Because the planogram has to load into the system and drive the physical build. A layout in your own spreadsheet is a picture; the approved tool and data template produce a file the deployment can actually consume — validated format, correct fields, no manual re-entry on install day. Detailed formatting lives in the Planogram Tool docs and Data Template.
TRY IT

One SKU is retrieved dozens of times a day — by far the busiest item in the room. Where does it go?

✓ RIGHTVelocity earns prime space. The item grabbed most often goes where it's fastest to see and reach — eye level, on the path staff already walk. That single choice compounds across dozens of retrievals a day.
✗ NOT QUITEPrime space goes to the fastest-moving item, not the most expensive or the leftover gap. Eye-level, easy-reach, on the workflow path — that's where the busiest SKU belongs.
CHECK 1 OF 3

Two products are always used together in one procedure. The planogram tool suggests splitting them across shelves to balance space better.

✓ RIGHTLogical grouping by workflow is the organizing principle; space optimization serves it, not the other way around. Items used together stay together — you rebalance space with the SKUs that aren't workflow-linked.
✗ NOT QUITEEven spacing isn't the point — workflow is. Splitting a paired procedure across shelves costs staff a walk mid-task on every use. Keep the pair adjacent and balance space using unlinked items.
CHECK 2 OF 3

You've built a genuinely great planogram — in a spreadsheet of your own design. Ready to hand it off?

✓ RIGHTThe layout is only half the deliverable; the format is the other half. The approved tool and data template produce a file the system ingests directly. Your own spreadsheet means manual re-entry and errors on the worst possible day.
✗ NOT QUITEA great layout in the wrong format doesn't deploy. Planogram planning "must be completed using the approved tool and required data format" — converting on install day is exactly the scramble the rule exists to prevent.
CHECK 3 OF 3

A placement looks perfect, but one SKU's tray in that cell can't hold its full max level.

✓ RIGHTValidation against tray sizes and min/max is non-negotiable — a cell that can't hold max overflows on the first restock. Fix the placement or the cell and re-validate. You never quietly change the customer's min/max to paper over it (that's their data — Phase 03).
✗ NOT QUITE"Restock more often" defeats the design, and lowering the max yourself edits the customer's data. The planogram must be validated against tray sizes and min/max — adjust the placement or cell, then re-check.

4.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

After shelf and tray planning, the planogram optimizes shelf utilization and organizes products in a logical, operationally efficient manner — designing and optimizing shelf-level product placement, just as Space Planning Software plans the facility layout. It is the final phase of Stage 1: once approved, the plan is locked and readiness begins.

4.2 · PLANNING SCOPE

Optimization of shelf-space utilization.
Logical grouping of products based on operational workflows.
Organization of products by category, usage, or other defined criteria.
Validation that placement aligns with tray sizes and inventory min/max levels.
Review of accessibility, replenishment efficiency, and usability.

4.3 · THE PLACEMENT LOGIC

Three lenses applied together turn a sized shelf into a workflow.

LENSWHAT IT MEANSWHY IT PAYS OFF
By workflowProducts used in the same procedure are placed adjacent.Staff gather a task's supplies in one motion, not a walk around the room.
By velocityHigh-turnover items at eye level and easiest reach; rare items to the edges.The most frequent action in the room becomes the fastest.
By categoryLike items grouped — gloves with gloves, dressings with dressings.A predictable, learnable layout new staff pick up quickly.

4.4 · TOOL & DATA FORMAT

Planogram planning must be completed using the approved planogram tool and the required data format. The layout is only half the deliverable — the format is what lets the planogram load into the system and drive the physical build without manual re-entry on install day. Detailed formatting instructions live in the referenced Planogram Tool documentation and Data Template. A great layout in an ad-hoc spreadsheet does not deploy.

4.5 · VALIDATION

Before a planogram is approved it is validated on every axis:

Placement aligns with the tray sizes established in Phase 03.
Each cell holds the SKU's max level — no overflow on replenishment.
Accessible for consumers retrieving supplies; efficient for suppliers replenishing.
Reviewed for accessibility, replenishment efficiency, and usability.

If a placement can't hold a SKU's max, the fix is to adjust the placement or cell and re-validate — never to quietly change the customer's min/max (that is their data; see Phase 03).

PHASE 05 OF 10LED BY CUSTOMEROPS TRACKS & CHASES
RIVERSIDE STATEINFRASTRUCTURE DONEROOM CLEAREDDATES SCHEDULEDSITE READY
MODULE 05 · ~15 MIN

The plan is locked. Now Riverside has to get the building ready.

Stage 2 is readiness. This phase is the customer's to execute — electrical, network, clearing the room — but it's yours to track. Every prerequisite here is a gate in front of delivery and installation.

The theme of this phase: delays cascade. A prep item that slips doesn't slip alone — it drags delivery, install, and training with it.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

Delivery is Monday, install Tuesday. It's the Thursday before. You ask the GM if electrical and network are done — "Not yet, but we'll knock it out this weekend, no problem."

What do you do?

✓ RIGHTAll infrastructure and room prep must be complete before delivery and installation — that's the rule the whole phase turns on. "We'll knock it out" is a hope, not a confirmation. Get specifics, or move the date before a truck and a crew arrive to a room with no power.
✗ HOPE ISN'T A PLANA weekend of good intentions doesn't power a room. Delivering to unfinished infrastructure wastes a shipment and an installer day, and it's your timeline that takes the hit. Confirm concretely or slip the date.
✗ THAT'S HOW DAYS BURNInstallers can't conjure a circuit or a network drop. Prep must finish before delivery — an install crew standing in an unready room is the most expensive possible place to discover it.
THE CUSTOMER'S CHECKLIST

What Riverside must finish before delivery.

1Electrical infrastructure installed per the site survey
2LAN / network ports installed per the site survey
3Network / cybersecurity coordination — ports, NAC, firewall (when applicable)
4Room cleared by staff a day before install; debris & furniture removed
5Staging area designated for delivery & install materials
6Delivery, installation, and training dates scheduled
Because it's their building — their electricians, their network, their rooms, their staff. Autonomi specifies exactly what's needed (in the site survey documentation), but the customer executes it. Your role is to hand over the requirements early, track them against the delivery date, and escalate the moment one is slipping.
THE DEPENDENCY CHAIN

Why one slip moves everything.

Infrastructure → DeliveryElectrical & network must be in before hardware arrives, or it ships to a dead room.HARD GATE BEFORE DELIVERY
Room cleared → InstallThe room is cleared a day prior; a full room on install morning stalls the build.HARD GATE BEFORE INSTALL
Dates set → The visits happenDelivery, install, and training dates are all scheduled up front.NO DATE = NO VISIT
The phases are sequential and each waits on the one before. Electrical slips → delivery slips → install slips → training slips → go-live slips. A single unfinished circuit can move the whole project a week, which is why you track prep against the delivery date and raise slippage early, while there's still time to recover.
YOUR JOB IN A CUSTOMER-LED PHASE

You don't do the work — you own the outcome.

1Hand over the requirements early, tied to the site survey documentation
2Track completion against the delivery date
3Confirm concretely — "done" means verified, not promised
4Escalate slippage before it reaches delivery
Ownership of the tasks is theirs; ownership of the timeline is yours. If prep slips and you find out when the truck arrives, "it was their job" is cold comfort — the failed install is still yours to reschedule. Tracking is how you convert their tasks into your confidence.
TRY IT

Delivery is tomorrow. Which unfinished item most clearly means you should NOT deliver yet?

✓ RIGHTInfrastructure is the hard gate: hardware delivered to a room with no power or network is a wasted shipment. A missing training date is fixable by phone; a couple of boxes clear in minutes. No power/network = don't deliver.
✗ NOT QUITEThe training date can be set by phone and stray boxes clear fast. The one that actually stops the truck is electrical and network not installed per the survey — deliver into that and the shipment and crew are wasted.
CHECK 1 OF 3

IT confirms the network drop is physically in — but nobody looped in cybersecurity about firewall / NAC rules for the devices. Install is in 3 days.

✓ RIGHTA live port isn't the same as an allowed device. NAC/firewall rules can block the system from the network entirely — discovered on install day, that's a system you built but can't bring online. Confirm the coordination now.
✗ NOT QUITEA physical port means nothing if NAC/firewall blocks the device. Network/cybersecurity coordination is explicitly a prerequisite — surface it now so security clears the devices before, not during, install.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The GM wants to keep the supply room in full use until install morning "so we don't lose a day of patients."

✓ RIGHTClearing the room a day before is a listed prerequisite for a reason: the install needs an empty, quiet space to start clean. "Clear it install morning" eats the front of install day and risks the whole schedule. Empathize, but hold the line.
✗ NOT QUITEInstallers can't build around a working supply room. Clearing it the day prior is the prerequisite; doing it on the morning burns install hours you can't get back. Hold the line, kindly.
CHECK 3 OF 3

Electrical, network, and room clearance are all confirmed — but the customer never scheduled the training date. Install is set.

✓ RIGHTDelivery, install, and training dates are all scheduled in this phase. Training is the day-after-install setup that makes users independent — an installed room nobody's trained on isn't operational. Get the date on the calendar now.
✗ NOT QUITETraining isn't an afterthought — it's a scheduled prerequisite and it happens the day after install. Leave it unscheduled and you get a built room that never gets adopted. Lock the date now.

5.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Following planogram approval, customer-led logistics planning prepares the facility for installation. This step ensures all pre-installation requirements are completed and the site is ready for delivery, installation, and training. The customer completes all preparations in accordance with the site survey documentation and agreed timelines.

It opens Stage 2 (Readiness). The work is the customer's; the timeline risk is Autonomi's — which is why the operations lead tracks every item against the delivery date.

5.2 · CUSTOMER PRE-INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Installation of electrical infrastructure, as defined in the site survey documentation.
Installation of LAN/network ports, as defined in the site survey documentation.
Coordination with the client's network and cybersecurity teams for port / NAC / firewall configuration, when applicable.
Temporary clearance of the installation room by client staff, a day prior to installation.
Removal of debris, furniture, and any non-required items from the installation area.
Designation of a staging area for delivery and installation materials.
Scheduling of delivery for all items required for installation.
Scheduling of the installation date and time.
Scheduling of the training date and time.

5.3 · DEPENDENCIES

All infrastructure work and room preparations must be completed prior to delivery and installation. Delays in customer logistics preparation may impact installation and training timelines. The phases are sequential: a slipped prerequisite pushes delivery, which pushes installation, which pushes training and go-live.

5.4 · THE OPERATIONS LEAD'S ROLE

This is a customer-led phase, but not an unmanaged one. The operations lead: hands over the requirements early (anchored to the site survey documentation); tracks completion against the delivery date; confirms concretely rather than accepting verbal assurances; and escalates any slippage before it reaches delivery. Ownership of the tasks is the customer's; ownership of the timeline is Autonomi's.

Autonomi Logistics

PHASE 06 OF 10LED BY AUTONOMIYOUR LOGISTICS
RIVERSIDE STATEINVENTORY VERIFIEDSITE RE-CONFIRMEDKIT STAGED ON-SITEREADY TO INSTALL
MODULE 06 · ~15 MIN

Riverside's side is ready. Now yours has to be.

This is Autonomi's mirror of Phase 05 — your logistics. Inventory, installers, shipping, and an on-site pre-check a day or two before the build.

The habit this phase builds: verify, don't assume. "The system says it's allocated" is not the same as "I confirmed it's on the truck."

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

Install is in 4 days. Your warehouse system shows the shelving allocated — but you haven't physically confirmed the trays and accessories are pulled, or that the installer is booked. The GM keeps asking for reassurance.

What do you do?

✓ RIGHTAutonomi readiness means you personally verify: inventory in the main and secondary/local storage, every piece of hardware allocated, and the installer confirmed for the date. "Allocated in the system" is a status, not a verification — and trays love to hide in local storage.
✗ REASSURANCE ISN'T READINESSA system record isn't a pulled, staged kit on a truck. Reassuring the GM on a status you haven't verified is how you end up one tray short on install morning. Verify, then reassure.
✗ IT'S YOUR NAME ON THE INSTALLThe customer prep is only half of readiness — the Autonomi half is yours to own. Assuming the warehouse "has it" is exactly the gap that strands an install.
WAREHOUSE & INVENTORY READINESS

Confirm the hardware exists — everywhere it lives.

1Verify inventory availability in the main warehouse
2Verify inventory in secondary / local storage
3Confirm all hardware, shelves, trays & accessories are allocated for this install
Because stock lives in more than one place. The main warehouse system can look complete while the trays you need are sitting in a local self-storage unit that system doesn't track. Checking both — and staging a consolidated kit from local storage — is how you avoid the "we have it, just not here" surprise on install day.
TEAM & SITE VERIFICATION

Re-confirm the whole picture, including the customer's.

1Installer availability confirmed for the date; internal teams aligned

3Electrical & LAN installations complete per the site survey
4Network/cybersecurity confirmed; technicians available install day if applicable
5Customer has the required medical supplies for the training day
Phase 05 is where the customer commits; Phase 06 is where you verify it actually happened, days before you commit a truck and a crew. Trust from Phase 05, confirmation in Phase 06. The cost of re-checking is a phone call; the cost of not is a stranded install.
SHIPPING, ROUTE & THE ON-SITE PRE-CHECK

Get it there — and start install day already ahead.

1Confirm the delivery route: truck parking, offload location, storage, hallway/elevator size, labor needed
2Schedule shipment so timelines align with the install date
3Arrange where cartons & trash go during install
41–2 days prior, on-site: verify items arrived, stage the kit, build the network cabinet, confirm trash pickup, double-check internet & power
Because a 7-foot shelving unit that won't fit the freight elevator is a catastrophe you discover with a truck idling outside. Parking, offload, hallway and elevator dimensions, and labor all get confirmed before shipment. The on-site pre-check the day before means install day starts with a built cabinet and verified stock, not a scavenger hunt.
TRY IT

It's the evening before install. Your 1–2-day-prior site visit is done and everything arrived — but the network cabinet isn't built yet.

✓ RIGHTBuilding and staging the network cabinet is explicitly part of the 1–2-day-prior prep. Do it the night before and install day opens with connectivity ready instead of a crew waiting on a cabinet. Prep buys you a clean start.
✗ NOT QUITEThe network cabinet is meant to be built during the pre-install prep, not on the clock during install. Leaving it for the morning eats install time and delays everything that needs the network.
CHECK 1 OF 3

The shelving units are 7 ft tall. Nobody has confirmed the freight elevator dimensions at Riverside.

✓ RIGHTRoute confirmation (parking, offload, hallway/elevator size, labor) happens before shipment for exactly this reason. A unit that won't fit the elevator strands your install at the loading dock. Measure the path before the truck rolls.
✗ NOT QUITE"Figure it out on the day" with a truck idling is the nightmare; re-ordering units abandons the plan. Confirm the full delivery route in advance — that's a listed step precisely to catch the 7-ft-unit-vs-elevator problem.
CHECK 2 OF 3

Your warehouse system shows the trays allocated — but a colleague mentions some are actually at the local self-storage, not the main warehouse.

✓ RIGHTInventory is verified in both the main warehouse and secondary/local storage, and a consolidated kit is staged from local storage. That's the exact step that prevents "allocated" trays that never make it onto the truck.
✗ NOT QUITETrusting one system misses stock in local storage; buying new trays wastes money and time. Verify both locations and stage the local-storage items into one consolidated kit before install.
CHECK 3 OF 3

Install day is confirmed, room cleared, hardware staged. The customer mentions they haven't stocked the medical supplies you'll use in training the next day.

✓ RIGHT"Confirm the customer has all required medical supplies for the training day" is explicitly part of Autonomi readiness. Training on real supplies is what makes users actually operational — verify it now, not the morning of training.
✗ NOT QUITETraining-day supplies are a listed readiness item for a reason — role-based training runs on the real stock going into the room. Confirm the customer has them; don't improvise around a gap you can close now.

6.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Following customer approval of the planogram and confirmation of a proposed installation date, Autonomi initiates pre-installation readiness and coordination — ensuring inventory, personnel, logistics, and site conditions are fully aligned prior to installation. It is the Autonomi-side mirror of Phase 05: the customer prepares the building; Autonomi prepares everything it will bring to it.

6.2 · WAREHOUSE & INVENTORY READINESS

Verify inventory availability in the main warehouse.
Verify inventory availability in secondary or local storage.
Confirm all required hardware, shelves, trays, and accessories are allocated for the installation.

6.3 · TEAM & SITE VERIFICATION

Verify the customer's logistics team has cleared the installation room.
Verify completion of electrical and LAN installations per the site survey documentation.

Confirm the customer has all required medical supplies available for the training day.

Phase 05 is where the customer commits to this prep; Phase 06 is where Autonomi verifies it actually happened before committing a crew.

6.4 · SHIPPING & LOGISTICS COORDINATION

Confirm the delivery route, checking each of: truck parking, offload location, sufficient storage, hallway / elevator size, and labor required.

Users & Access

PHASE 07 OF 10LED BY CUSTOMERREQUESTED BY AUTONOMILAST PHASE OF STAGE 2
RIVERSIDE STATELIST REQUESTEDROLES MAPPEDLEAST-PRIVILEGE APPLIEDLIST APPROVED
MODULE 07 · ~15 MIN

Who gets a key, who gets the app, and who can change the settings?

The week before install, the Autonomi lead requests the user list; the customer assigns roles based on responsibilities. Get this right and access matches how people actually work — get it wrong and someone breaks the system from a laptop.

This is the last phase of Stage 2. Clear it and the site is ready to install.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

Riverside's GM sends back the user list — and has marked themselves and four other managers all as "Admin, so we can all fix things if needed."

Five admins. What do you do?

✓ RIGHTEach user gets the minimum access their role requires, and Admin is granted cautiously because incorrect configuration changes can hurt system operation. Re-map by what each person does: retrieves → Consumer, replenishes → Supplier, monitors → Co-Admin, truly owns the system → Admin.
✗ FLEXIBILITY IS THE RISKFive admins is five people who can misconfigure the system. Admin access is granted cautiously precisely because a wrong change degrades operation. More admins isn't resilience — it's more ways to break it.
✗ OVER-CORRECTS THE OTHER WAYCo-Admin is read-only — a manager who actually replenishes inventory needs Supplier access, not a view-only account. Match each person to what they do; don't flatten everyone to one safe-looking role.
THE FOUR ROLES

Access maps to responsibility.

Consumer · yellow keyRetrieves medical supplies. Generally does not need the application.TYPICAL: NURSES, OFFICE MANAGERS
Supplier · blue key fobReplenishes inventory; sometimes handles procurement.TYPICAL: GMs, LOCAL PROCUREMENT
Co-Admin · read-onlyMonitors usage and compliance in the app as a system of record. Cannot make changes.TYPICAL: GMs, LOCAL PROCUREMENT
Admin · full accessFull app and web console, including configuration and system changes.TYPICAL: EXECUTIVES, SYSTEM OWNERS
Because a Consumer's whole job is to take supplies out — the yellow key does that at the room. Adding an app login they'd never use is access for its own sake, which the least-privilege principle exists to avoid. Give people exactly the access their task needs, and no more.
THE ACCESS MODEL

Key, fob, or login — three ways in.

🔑Yellow key — physical retrieval, for Consumers
🔵Blue key fob — replenishment, for Suppliers
💻App / Web Console login — Co-Admins (read-only) and Admins (full)
2Two platforms: the Autonomi App and the Web Console
Because retrieving and replenishing happen at the room, physically — a key or fob is the right, frictionless tool. Monitoring and configuring happen in software, so they're login-based with real permissions behind them. Matching the credential to where the work happens keeps the common actions fast and the powerful actions controlled.
LEAST PRIVILEGE & APPROVAL

Minimum access, carefully granted.

1Assign each user the minimum access their role requires
2Grant Admin cautiously — wrong config changes can hurt operations
3The customer carefully reviews assignments before final submission
4The Autonomi lead requests the list the week before install
Admin has full access to the web console — including configuration and system changes. An incorrect change there doesn't just affect one user; it can degrade how the whole system operates. That's why Admin is granted cautiously and minimally, reserved for the true system owners, while everyone else gets exactly what their day-to-day requires.
TRY IT

A nurse who only grabs supplies during her shifts — what role?

✓ RIGHTRetrieving supplies = Consumer, with the yellow key and no app login she'd never use. That's least privilege: exactly the access her task needs.
✗ NOT QUITEShe only takes supplies out — that's a Consumer (yellow key). Co-Admin gives her a monitoring login she doesn't need; Supplier gives replenishment access that isn't her job. Match the role to the task.
CHECK 1 OF 3

A GM who approves purchasing AND wants to watch usage reports — but should never change system configuration.

✓ RIGHTMatch access to actual responsibilities: procurement/replenishment is Supplier, watching usage is Co-Admin (read-only). No configuration duties means no Admin — seniority isn't a reason to hold the keys to the config.
✗ NOT QUITEAdmin hands a non-configurer the power to break the system; Consumer strips the access they do need. GMs are typical Suppliers and Co-Admins — give both, skip Admin.
CHECK 2 OF 3

Who should actually get Admin (full access + web console configuration)?

✓ RIGHTAdmin is reserved for the people who genuinely own the system's configuration, granted cautiously. Not everyone (that multiplies risk), and not no one (someone must be able to administer it) — the minimum set of real owners.
✗ NOT QUITEAdmin-for-all multiplies the chance of a breaking change; Admin-for-none leaves the system unadministrable. It goes to the true owners only, cautiously and minimally.
CHECK 3 OF 3

The customer submits the finished user list. Before you provision it, what's the last step?

✓ RIGHTCustomers are encouraged to carefully review role assignments before final submission. A deliberate review catches the over-privileged manager or the miscategorized nurse before it becomes a live misconfiguration.
✗ NOT QUITEProvisioning first and fixing later means running on wrong access; upgrading "to be safe" is the opposite of least privilege. The last step is a careful customer review of the assignments before submission.

7.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Prior to installation, a user list is defined to ensure appropriate access to the Autonomi system, physical room, application, and web console. During the week before installation, the Autonomi lead requests the list; the customer assigns roles based on responsibilities and operational needs. It is the final phase of Stage 2 — once the list is approved, the site is ready to install.

7.3 · THE ACCESS MODEL

Access matches where the work happens. Retrieval and replenishment are physical, at-the-room actions carried out with a yellow key (Consumers) and a blue key fob (Suppliers). Monitoring and configuration are software actions, carried out through logins to the Autonomi App and Web Console — read-only for Co-Admins, full for Admins.

Installation Day

PHASE 08 OF 10LED BY AUTONOMION-SITE — INSTALL
RIVERSIDE STATEROOM VERIFIED READYCLEAN CONDUCT HELDFINAL CHECK DONEREADY FOR USE
MODULE 08 · ~15 MIN · ON-SITE

Build day — in a clinic that's still seeing patients.

The site is ready (Gate 2 cleared). Today the hardware goes in. The twist: Riverside stays operational during the build — patients in the halls, staff working — so how you conduct yourself matters as much as what you install.

Stage 3 begins. You're the Autonomi rep overseeing the install.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

You and the install crew arrive at 8am. The crew wants to start unloading the truck immediately.

What's your first move?

✓ RIGHTThe Autonomi rep overseeing the install arrives before the crew to verify room readiness and address last-minute issues. Two minutes of checking now beats discovering a dead circuit with half the hardware unboxed.
✗ MOMENTUM INTO A WALLUnloading before you've confirmed the room is ready means you might be hauling hardware into a space that isn't. Verify first — that's the overseeing rep's job on arrival.
✗ DELEGATING THE ONE THING YOU OWNReadiness verification is yours to do, walking the room — not a question lobbed at the GM while the crew commits. Go in first, confirm, then start.
CONDUCT IN A LIVE CLINICAL ENVIRONMENT

The facility is open. Act like it.

1The area stays clean throughout — not just at the end; patients may be present
2No music
3Avoid loud conversations
4Keep hallways & shared spaces clear at all times
5Remain respectful of staff, patients, and surrounding areas
Because the clinic never closed for you. A pile of cardboard or a swept-later floor isn't just untidy — in an operational clinical space it's a hazard and a bad look in front of patients. Continuous cleanup keeps the facility safe and functional while you work, not only once you're done.
CLEANLINESS DISCIPLINE

Where the mess goes, continuously.

1Break down cardboard boxes and consolidate into a designated pile
2Collect and dispose of plastic packaging promptly
3Sweep the floor regularly during installation
4Nothing left in hallways or shared spaces
Two reasons: safety and trust. Screws and packaging on a clinical floor are a slip/contamination risk; clutter in a corridor blocks staff who are mid-care. And every deployment is also a first impression — a crew that leaves the space cleaner than expected earns the customer's confidence in the whole system.
THE FINAL ROOM CHECK

Leave it ready-for-use.

1Dispose of all garbage in the designated area
2Sweep to remove dust, screws, and small materials
3Walk through to confirm no tools or equipment were left behind
4Leave the installation area in a ready-for-use condition
A left-behind tool in a clinical supply room is worse than an inconvenience — a stray blade, driver, or bit near where staff and patients reach is a genuine safety issue. The walkthrough is a deliberate, every-time check precisely because "I think we got everything" isn't good enough in this environment.
TRY IT

A nurse needs supplies from an adjacent area, and your boxes are blocking the corridor.

✓ RIGHTHallways and shared spaces are kept clear at all times because the clinic is running. The nurse's path to supplies wins over your staging convenience — move the boxes now.
✗ NOT QUITEBlocking a working corridor — or rerouting staff — isn't acceptable in an operational facility. Shared spaces stay clear throughout; move the boxes immediately.
CHECK 1 OF 3

An installer puts on music to keep the crew's energy up.

✓ RIGHTNo music, no loud conversations — full stop. The rule exists because patients and clinical staff are nearby, and a construction-site atmosphere is exactly what a clinic isn't. Keep it quiet and respectful.
✗ NOT QUITE"Not too loud" and "door closed" still isn't no music. The conduct rules are explicit: no music, avoid loud conversation. Keep the room calm.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The install is done and looks great. The crew is packing up to leave.

✓ RIGHT"Looks great" isn't the final check. Garbage to the designated area, a real sweep for screws and dust, and a deliberate tool walkthrough — that's what leaves the room genuinely ready-for-use and safe.
✗ NOT QUITEEyeballing it or outsourcing the sweep skips the safety step. The final room check is yours: garbage out, sweep, tool walkthrough, ready-for-use.
CHECK 3 OF 3

Mid-install you hit a hardware issue you can't immediately resolve.

✓ RIGHTThere's a defined path — the Troubleshooting and Installation Summary references — for exactly this. Improvising a workaround in a clinical environment risks safety and a bad hand-over; use the process and escalate if needed.
✗ NOT QUITEA forced workaround risks the install and the space; silently deferring a hardware fault to training day hands the customer a broken system. Use the troubleshooting reference and escalate properly.

Training Day

PHASE 09 OF 10LED BY AUTONOMION-SITE — FIRST VISIT
RIVERSIDE STATESYSTEM VERIFIEDROLES TRAINEDCONFIG FINALIZEDUSERS INDEPENDENT
MODULE 09 · ~15 MIN · ON-SITE · FIRST VISIT

The room is built. Now make the people independent.

One day after installation you return for the first-visit training. You finalize the last of the setup and teach Riverside's staff to run the system themselves — because an installed room nobody can operate isn't operational.

Training is role-based and delivered across two platforms: the Autonomi App and the Web Console.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

You arrive to train. The GM says: "Great — let's get everyone in one room and run through the whole system together, one session."

Efficient. But is it right?

✓ RIGHTTraining is role-based, delivered across the App and Web Console. All roles get basic usage; Admins get advanced configuration. A single generic session over-trains the Consumer and under-trains the Admin — matching instruction to access is the whole point.
✗ EFFICIENT, NOT EFFECTIVEOne session for everyone means a nurse sits through web-console config she'll never touch while the Admin gets only surface coverage. Instruction is matched to each role's access — train by role.
✗ TELEPHONE GAME"Train the trainer" leaves every other role learning secondhand from someone with different access. Each role gets direct, appropriate instruction on the right platform.
FIRST — THE DAY-AFTER CHECKLIST

Verify the system before you teach it.

1All installed hardware is operational
2System connectivity and access to the App and Web Console
3Shelves, trays & planogram match the approved configuration
4User access and roles are correctly configured
5Required medical supplies are available for training scenarios
Because you can't teach on a broken system without teaching the wrong thing. If a shelf doesn't match the planogram or a role is mis-configured, training on it drills bad habits and undermines trust on day one. Verify first, then every minute of training lands on a system that behaves the way you're describing.
ROLE-BASED TRAINING · TWO PLATFORMS

Match the lesson to the access.

ConsumersBasic usage — retrieving supplies with the yellow key.AUTONOMI APP · BASIC
SuppliersReplenishing inventory with the blue fob.APP · BASIC
Co-AdminsRead-only monitoring of usage & compliance.APP / CONSOLE · BASIC
AdminsBasic usage plus advanced configuration & management.WEB CONSOLE · ADVANCED
Because the work lives in two places. Day-to-day retrieval and replenishment happen in the Autonomi App (and at the room), while configuration and system management happen in the Web Console. Each role is trained on the platform its access actually touches — no more, no less.
FINALIZE & MAKE THEM INDEPENDENT

Success = they run it without you.

1Complete the remaining configuration & room finalization during the session
2Teach with the designated training materials & "How to Use the Smart Room"
3Confirm users can operate the system independently and correctly
4Leave the site operational
Because you're leaving. If staff can only run the room while the Autonomi rep is standing there, nothing has actually been handed over. The bar for a successful training day isn't "we covered the material" — it's that each role can correctly do their job on the system after you walk out.
TRY IT

A Consumer — a nurse who retrieves supplies each shift. What does her training need to cover?

✓ RIGHTConsumers get basic usage matched to their access: retrieving supplies. Web-console config and replenishment belong to Admins and Suppliers — training her on those wastes her time and muddies the essentials.
✗ NOT QUITEA Consumer retrieves supplies — her training is basic usage for that. Console config is Admin territory; replenishment is the Supplier's. Match the lesson to her access.
CHECK 1 OF 3

You power on to train and notice one shelf's planogram doesn't match the approved configuration.

✓ RIGHTValidating shelves/trays/planogram against the approved config is a day-after checklist item precisely so you catch this. Training on a wrong layout teaches staff the wrong locations — fix it first, then train.
✗ NOT QUITETraining on or skipping a mismatched shelf either teaches the wrong thing or leaves a gap. The checklist says validate the planogram against the approved config — correct it before you train on it.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The Admins clearly need more than the basic usage everyone else is getting.

✓ RIGHTAll roles get basic usage; Admins additionally get advanced configuration and management training. (Note: the detailed advanced-Admin curriculum is being finalized internally — owner: Maria.)
✗ NOT QUITEAdmins own configuration and system changes — basic usage alone leaves them unable to do their role, and a self-read manual isn't training. They get the advanced track in addition to the basics.
CHECK 3 OF 3

Training went well and everyone was engaged. How do you know Phase 09 actually succeeded?

✓ RIGHTThe outcome that matters is independent, correct operation and an operational site — not slides covered or good vibes. If staff can run their part of the room after you leave, training succeeded.
✗ NOT QUITECovering the material or a warm feeling isn't the bar. Success is measured by users operating the system independently and correctly, with the site operational.

Go-Live & Trial

PHASE 10 OF 12LED BY AUTONOMION-SITE — SECOND VISITGO-LIVE GATE
RIVERSIDE STATEADOPTION CONFIRMEDGO-LIVE SENTTRIAL SCHEDULEDSETTINGS VERIFIED
MODULE 10 · ~15 MIN · ON-SITE · SECOND VISIT

Installed and trained isn't the same as live.

The story: Riverside's room is built, the planogram is loaded, and the first-visit training is done. Now you close the loop: a second on-site visit to confirm the system stuck, a go-live confirmation to the client, and — about two weeks later — a trial order that proves the numbers are real.

Four steps turn "installed" into "operating": post-install review, go-live sign-off, scheduling the trial, and running it.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

On your second visit the room is running — but a Supplier has skipped replenishment for days and one shelf sits near-empty. The GM shrugs: "It's working fine."

Your move?

✓ RIGHTThe post-install review confirms sustained adoption and clears open items. A chronically near-empty shelf is an adoption signal — coach it, fix the workflow, log it. A system people half-use fails quietly.
✗ "WORKING" HIDES A CRACKA near-empty shelf means the replenishment habit hasn't taken. Confirming adoption is the whole point of this visit — nodding at "it's fine" lets a fixable gap harden.
✗ WRONG TOOLGoing over the GM's head burns the relationship adoption depends on. This is coach-and-resolve on the ground, logged as an open item — not an escalation.
STEP 51 · WHAT THE SECOND VISIT CONFIRMS

Confirm it stuck — then close what's open.

1Staff are actually using the room — pickups and restocks are happening
2Shelves stay stocked to plan — no chronic near-empties
3Every open item from install and training day is resolved or owned
Because the failure mode isn't a broken machine — it's a room that technically works but nobody trusts. The second visit catches the half-habits early, while a nurse's "I wasn't sure how to…" is a 5-minute coaching fix, not a three-month adoption problem.
STEP 52 · GO-LIVE CONFIRMATION

One email makes it official.

Once adoption is confirmed and open items are cleared, a go-live confirmation goes to the client: the room is live and operational.

Goes to the customer's designated contact and stakeholders
Executed jointly — CS / IM / AE aligned on status before it sends
For Israel clients, it also goes to Sarel
"Go-live" is a commitment, not a status guess. Sending it before adoption is confirmed means you're on record as live while a shelf sits empty. The review is the evidence; the email is the declaration.
STEPS 53–54 · THE TRIAL ORDER

Two weeks later, prove the numbers.

A trial order is scheduled (IM) for roughly two weeks post-install and then run as a full verification pass: system quantities compared against a physical shelf count.

1Schedule the trial ~2 weeks out — for Israel clients, coordinate with Sarel and the client
2Compare actual quantities to physical counts — settings, zeroing, and standards all confirmed
3Any drift found here gets corrected before the client relies on the data
Two weeks of real use is what shakes out mis-zeroed cells, wrong min/max, and weighing drift. A trial on day one only proves the install; a trial after two weeks proves the settings — which is what the client's ordering will run on.
CHECK 1 OF 3

Adoption looks good on the second visit, but two install-day punch-list items are still open. The GM asks you to "send the go-live note today."

✓ RIGHTGo-live is a declaration you'll be held to. Resolve or assign the open items, then send — with CS/IM/AE aligned on the real status.
✗ NOT QUITESending "live" over an open punch-list puts you on record ahead of reality; skipping it leaves the client with no formal confirmation. Clear the items, then send the note.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The client wants to run the trial order the morning after install "while everyone's here."

✓ RIGHTA day-one trial only proves the install. Two weeks of use is what exposes mis-zeroing, wrong min/max, and weighing drift — which is exactly what the trial exists to catch.
✗ NOT QUITEThe trial isn't a re-check of the install — it's a check of the settings under real use. Run it ~2 weeks out, comparing actual quantities to a physical count.
CHECK 3 OF 3

During the trial order, system counts and the physical shelf count disagree on three products.

✓ RIGHTA mismatch is the trial's whole purpose. Re-check zeroing, product weights, and standards on those cells, fix them, and re-verify — that's what makes the client's ordering trustworthy.
✗ NOT QUITEThe physical count is the ground truth the trial exists to reconcile against. Three silent discrepancies become wrong orders. Investigate and correct before sign-off.

10.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Go-Live & Trial is Phase 10 of twelve and the gate between installation and steady-state operation. It closes the on-site work begun on Installation Day (Phase 08) and Training Day (Phase 09) and opens the adoption work of Phases 11–12. It covers four workflow steps: the post-installation review (51), the go-live confirmation (52), scheduling the trial order (53), and running it (54).

10.2 · POST-INSTALLATION REVIEW — SECOND VISIT

A second on-site visit follows first-visit training. Its purpose is to confirm sustained adoption: that staff are using the room, shelves stay stocked to plan, and every item left open on install or training day is resolved or formally owned. Adoption gaps found here — a skipped replenishment, a hesitant user — are coached and logged, not escalated. Executor: Customer Success.

10.3 · GO-LIVE CONFIRMATION

Once adoption is confirmed and open items are cleared, a status email confirms to the client that the room is live and operational. It is executed jointly by CS, IM, and AE so the declared status matches reality, and is sent to the customer's designated contact and stakeholders. For Israel clients, it is also sent to Sarel. The email is a commitment: it does not precede the review.

10.4 · TRIAL ORDER

A trial order is scheduled roughly two weeks post-install (executor: Implementation Manager; for Israel clients, coordinated with Sarel and the client) and then run as a full verification pass. System quantities are compared against a physical shelf count to confirm that settings, cell zeroing, and weighing standards are correct. Two weeks of real use is what surfaces mis-zeroed cells, wrong min/max, and weighing drift; discrepancies are investigated and corrected before the client relies on the data for ordering.

10.5 · EXIT CRITERIA

Adoption & Training Rollout

PHASE 11 OF 12LED BY AUTONOMIREMOTE — WEEKS 1–6
RIVERSIDE STATEROLES TRAINEDREPORTS FLOWINGLEADERSHIP BRIEFEDKEPT CURRENT
MODULE 11 · ~15 MIN · REMOTE · WEEKS 1–6

Live is the start of adoption, not the end of it.

The story: Riverside is live and the trial order checked out. Over the next six weeks the room has to become the way people work — not a gadget they route around. That takes a deliberate training rollout by user type, regular reporting, a leadership touchpoint, and a way to keep everyone current as the system changes.

This phase is mostly Customer Success, mostly remote — and it's where deployments either take root or slowly wilt.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

Two weeks post-go-live, Riverside's administrator emails: "Leadership wants an update on how the room's performing — can you send something over?"

What do you send?

✓ RIGHTLeadership buys renewal and expansion on outcomes, not raw exports. The senior-leadership presentation (step 58) translates consumption, out-of-stock, overstock, and health data into what it means for the facility.
✗ HALF THE JOBA raw export makes leadership do the interpretation — and they won't. The monthly report is the source; the leadership presentation is the deliverable.
✗ MISSED OPENINGAn engaged executive asking for data is the adoption moment you want. Even early data, framed well, builds the sponsorship that carries the deployment.
STEPS 55–56 · TRAINING BY USER TYPE

Different roles, different depth.

Consumer & SupplierBasics — pickup and restock workflows on the app/card.SHORT · HANDS-ON · REPEATED
Admin & Deputy AdminAdvanced configuration training — the deeper system controls.DEPTH FOR THE OWNERS
Web Console usersConsole workflows — reporting, min/max, oversight.REMOTE, FIRST WEEK ON
Because people learn the tool they're about to use, not the tool they saw last month. Consumer/Supplier basics land on install; Admin depth and Console training land when those users actually start configuring and reporting — weeks 1–6, by role.
STEPS 57–58 · REPORTING & LEADERSHIP

Data becomes trust — if someone frames it.

1Monthly reports — consumption, out-of-stock, overstock, and system health, compiled and sent every month (CS)
2Leadership presentation — the same data, pitched to the facility director/administrator as outcomes (CS)
They serve different readers. The monthly report is the operational record for the people running the room. The leadership presentation translates that record into the language executives fund: fewer stock-outs, less waste, a room the staff trust. Same data, different altitude.
STEPS 59–60 · KEEPING CURRENT

The system changes — so must the people.

Newsletters keep clients informed of new versions, features, and changes (CS)
The internal team (CS/Ops) is trained on new features as they roll out — so support never trails the product (CS)
Because a client who hears about a new feature from a newsletter and then hits a support person who's never seen it loses confidence fast. Internal enablement and client communication ship together, or the newsletter writes checks support can't cash.
CHECK 1 OF 3

Riverside's Admins say the Day-2 training "covered everything" and they don't need more.

✓ RIGHTDay-2 basics and advanced configuration are different depths. Admins own the controls that break rooms when misused — the advanced session (step 55) exists precisely for the users who feel ready.
✗ NOT QUITE"Covered everything" usually means "covered the basics." Admin/Deputy Admin depth is a separate, deliberate session — a manual doesn't replace it.
CHECK 2 OF 3

You're slammed. Do you skip this month's report to Riverside since "nothing's changed"?

✓ RIGHTMonthly reporting is a cadence, not an event. Skipping "quiet" months is how overstock and slow stock-outs go unnoticed — and how the client stops expecting anything from you.
✗ NOT QUITEThe value of monthly reports is the rhythm. A skipped month hides drift and trains the client to ignore the room. Send it — even a clean one.
CHECK 3 OF 3

A new system version ships with a changed restock flow. What goes out first?

✓ RIGHTClient communication and internal enablement ship together. A newsletter that lands before support is trained generates questions no one can answer — and erodes the trust the feature was meant to build.
✗ NOT QUITEAnnouncing to clients before your own team is ready backfires; saying nothing wastes the improvement. Enable internally, then (or simultaneously) tell the client.

11.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Adoption & Training Rollout is Phase 11 of twelve and the first phase of steady-state. Where Go-Live & Trial (Phase 10) proved the room works, this phase makes it the default way Riverside works. It runs mostly remotely across weeks 1–6 and is led by Customer Success. It covers six workflow steps: advanced Admin configuration training (55), role-based training rollout (56), monthly reports (57), the senior-leadership presentation (58), version newsletters (59), and internal team training on new features (60).

11.2 · TRAINING ROLLOUT BY USER TYPE

Training continues past Day 2, sequenced to when each role actually uses the system. Consumer and Supplier users get repeated hands-on basics; Admin and Deputy Admin users get a dedicated advanced configuration session on the controls they own; Web Console users are trained remotely on reporting and oversight. Executors: Customer Success, with Implementation Manager support on role-specific sessions.

11.3 · REPORTING AND LEADERSHIP

Monthly reports compile consumption, out-of-stock, overstock, and system-health data and are sent to the client every month on cadence — the rhythm is what surfaces slow drift and sustains the relationship. Separately, a senior-leadership training and presentation delivers the same data as outcomes to the facility director or administrator, distinct from day-to-day user training. Executor: Customer Success.

11.4 · KEEPING CURRENT

As the product evolves, clients are informed of new versions, features, and changes through periodic newsletters, and the internal CS/Ops team is trained on those changes as they roll out. The two ship together: client communication that outruns internal enablement generates questions support cannot answer. Executor: Customer Success.

PHASE 12 OF 12LED BY AUTONOMIWEEKS 4–6 → ONGOINGFINAL PHASE
RIVERSIDE STATECLIENT OWNS DAY-TO-DAYSUPPORT TRANSITIONEDSUPPORT TIERS SETSTEADY STATE
MODULE 12 · ~15 MIN · WEEKS 4–6 → ONGOING

The deployment ends when the client can run it without you.

The story: Four to six weeks in, Riverside runs its own room day to day. Your job now is a clean double handover — the client takes operational ownership, and internally the project moves to the ongoing-support team — plus the support structure that carries it from here: remote-first help, on-site when needed, a measure-and-weigh pass, and a path for new-staff training and feature requests.

This is the final phase. Clear it and you've run a deployment end to end.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

Eight weeks after go-live, a Riverside nurse texts you directly: a card reader is acting up. The project handed to ongoing support two weeks ago.

What's the right move?

✓ RIGHTHandover doesn't mean abandonment or a personal hotline. You keep the human unblocked and feed the issue into the real support channel — remote-first — so it's owned, tracked, and doesn't depend on your memory.
✗ UNDOES THE HANDOVERFixing it personally teaches Riverside that support is "text Avidan." That doesn't scale and quietly reverses the internal handover you just did.
✗ TECHNICALLY RIGHT, HUMANLY WRONGThe path is a ticket — but a cold brush-off burns the adoption you built. Unblock the person, then route it properly.
STEPS 61–62 · THE DOUBLE HANDOVER

Two handovers, not one.

1Client handover (~4–6 weeks) — day-to-day monitoring transitions to the client, with background oversight continuing after
2Internal handover — the project moves to the ongoing-support team, with an installation summary document and status update
Because the support team wasn't in the room. The installation summary — configuration, quirks, open items, contacts — is how a support engineer who never met Riverside can still resolve its issues. Handover without documentation just moves the tribal knowledge, it doesn't share it.
STEPS 64–66 · SUPPORT STRUCTURE

Remote first, on-site when it must be.

Remote support — hardware problems, user questions, inventory discrepancies resolved remotely where possible (CS)
On-site visit — when it can't be fixed remotely, an Implementation Manager goes out (IM)
Measure & weigh — a separate visit, no client involvement, to record precise product weights once the client has physically placed products (IM)
Accurate weights are the foundation of accurate counts — but you can only weigh what's physically on the shelf, and the client places products on their own schedule. So it's decoupled: a focused technical visit to capture real weights, independent of training or support calls.
STEPS 63 & 67 · KEEPING IT ALIVE

Staff turn over. Needs evolve.

Train new client team members on system basics as staff turn over — separate from internal team training (CS)
Capture new feature requests — client asks for changes are logged and routed for evaluation (CS)
Because the nurse you trained on Day 2 will eventually leave, and an untrained replacement is how a healthy room slowly decays. Onboarding new staff is a standing part of support, not an exception — and feature requests are how the product keeps earning its place.
CHECK 1 OF 3

You're ready to hand the project to the ongoing-support team. The room's configured and everyone's trained.

✓ RIGHTThe support team never saw the install. A written installation summary is what lets someone who never met Riverside resolve its issues — a verbal call evaporates, and skipping the handover strands the client.
✗ NOT QUITEClient ownership of day-to-day doesn't remove Autonomi's support role. The internal handover — with a written summary — is what makes that support real.
CHECK 2 OF 3

A Riverside inventory discrepancy comes in. How's it handled first?

✓ RIGHTSupport is remote-first: hardware questions, user issues, and discrepancies are resolved remotely where possible, with an on-site IM visit reserved for what genuinely needs it.
✗ NOT QUITEDefaulting to a truck roll is slow and costly; dumping it on the client abandons them. Remote first, on-site when remote can't resolve it.
CHECK 3 OF 3

Three months on, Riverside has hired two new nurses and asked for a report that doesn't exist yet.

✓ RIGHTBoth are standing parts of support: new team members get trained on the basics, and feature requests are captured and routed for evaluation — not built ad-hoc off the process.
✗ NOT QUITEPeer-only training lets the room decay as staff turn over, and a weekend one-off bypasses the request process. Train the new hires; log the request properly.

12.1 · PURPOSE AND POSITION IN THE PROCESS

Handover & Ongoing Support is Phase 12 of twelve — the final phase. It converts an actively-managed deployment into a self-running site with a standing support structure. It covers seven workflow steps: client handover (61), internal handover to ongoing support (62), training new client team members (63), remote technical support (64), on-site technical support (65), the measure-and-weigh visit (66), and capturing new feature requests (67).

12.2 · THE DOUBLE HANDOVER

Two handovers happen, roughly four to six weeks post-go-live. In the client handover, day-to-day operational monitoring transitions to the client, with Autonomi continuing background oversight. In the internal handover, the project moves from the deployment team to the ongoing-support team, accompanied by an installation summary document and a status update — distinct from the client-facing handover. The document is what lets a support engineer who never saw the install resolve the site's issues. Executor: Customer Success.

12.3 · SUPPORT STRUCTURE

Support is remote-first. Hardware problems, user questions, and inventory discrepancies are resolved remotely where possible (Customer Success); when an issue genuinely cannot be resolved remotely, an Implementation Manager makes an on-site visit. A separate measure-and-weigh visit — without client involvement — records precise product weights once the client has physically placed products on the shelves, since accurate weights underpin accurate counts and can only be captured on the real, stocked shelf.

12.4 · KEEPING THE DEPLOYMENT ALIVE

Two standing activities keep a healthy room healthy: new client team members are trained on system basics as staff turn over (separate from internal team training on new features), and new feature requests from the client are captured and routed for evaluation rather than built ad-hoc. Executor: Customer Success.

12.5 · EXIT CRITERIA

Client owns day-to-day monitoring; background oversight continues
Project handed to ongoing support with an installation summary document
Remote/on-site support tiers established; measure-and-weigh visit completed

Core Kit Preparation

MODULE T1 OF 5LED BY AUTONOMIOFF-SITE PREP
RIVERSIDE BUILDKIT ASSEMBLEDSIZED TO BAYSPOE DISABLEDTESTED · PLUG-AND-PLAY
MODULE T1 · ~15 MIN · OFF-SITE

Before anyone drives to the site, the brains of the system get built on your bench.

This is the technical build behind Foundation Phase 08 (Installation Day). The core kit is the network cabinet — Raspberry Pi, converters, repeaters — assembled and tested off-site so install day is genuinely "plug and play."

Same Riverside deployment. Now you're the installer, and the PM has handed you the room blueprint and planogram that govern every placement decision.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

Riverside's blueprint shows 9 shelf bays. You're sizing the core kit — how many converters and repeaters?

The converter/repeater count scales to bay count. What goes in this kit?

✓ RIGHT9 bays falls in the 8–14 band: 2 converters, 2 repeaters, and a USB hub so both converters reach the Pi. Sizing to the band on the blueprint is what makes the kit truly plug-and-play on site.
✗ UNDER-SIZED1 converter / 1 repeater is the 5–7 bay band. Nine bays needs 2 converters on a USB hub — under-size it and shelves at the far end won't reach the Pi.
✗ OVER-SIZED3+ converters is the 15+ band. Nine bays only needs 2. Over-building wastes hardware and complicates the kit; size to the blueprint.
WHAT THE CORE KIT IS

The cabinet you build before you leave.

1Network cabinet + power strip
2Raspberry Pi in its case, with the relay HAT and SD card inserted
3Converters (RS232→USB to the Pi) + repeaters (short RJ45)
4Jumper wires from the Pi pins to the relay channels per the lock scheme
5Access-control scheme + "powered by Autonomi" stickers printed & pasted
Because a clinic is the worst place to discover a wiring mistake. Assembling and testing the core kit on the bench turns install day into mounting a known-good box — "plug and play." Every fault you catch off-site is a fault you're not debugging in a live supply room with patients down the hall.
SIZING BY BAY COUNT

Converters and repeaters scale to the room.

1–4 bays1 converter, 1 repeater. Single converter straight to the Pi.SMALL ROOM
5–7 bays1 converter, 1–2 repeaters — add a repeater for reach.MEDIUM
8–14 bays2 converters, 2 repeaters, on a USB hub.LARGE · USB HUB
15+ bays3+ converters, 3+ repeaters — scale converters to bays, USB hub.XL
Each shelf bay reports over an RS485/RJ45 run back to a converter, and signal strength falls off with distance and the number of daisy-chained shelves. Repeaters extend that reach. Too few and the far bays drop off the bus; the bands exist so the electronics match the physical size of the room.
POWER-UP & PoE

Two things that quietly break an install.

1Connect converter → Pi via RS232–USB (a USB hub for 2+ converters)
2Connect the Pi to the network port and ensure PoE is disabled
3Cut the 12V adapter plug, connect to the terminal block, power up
4Test access control on the bench before the kit ships
Power-over-Ethernet pushes voltage down the data line. The Raspberry Pi expects data, not power, on that port — leave PoE active and you risk damaging the Pi. If the port is PoE-active, the fix isn't yours to force: request the networking team to disable it on that port before you connect.
TRY IT

The kit is wired and powered. What is the last step before it counts as "plug and play"?

✓ RIGHT"Plug and play" means verified before arrival. Bench-test the access control and confirm the converter/Pi link, so install day is mounting a proven box, not debugging one.
✗ NOT QUITEThe whole point of off-site prep is a kit that arrives tested. Deferring or skipping the bench test drags the debugging into the clinic — exactly what plug-and-play is meant to avoid.
CHECK 1 OF 3

You go to connect the Pi and the network port shows PoE active.

✓ RIGHTPoE on the data line can damage the Pi. Disabling it is a networking-team action — request it and wait, rather than risking the core of the system on "probably fine."
✗ NOT QUITEConnecting into active PoE risks the Pi, and grabbing an unchecked port just moves the gamble. Get PoE disabled on the intended port first.
CHECK 2 OF 3

A 10-bay room means two converters in the kit. How do they connect to the Pi?

✓ RIGHTFor 2+ converters you connect each to the Pi through a USB hub via RS232–USB. That's the 8–14 bay configuration — two converters, both reaching the Pi.
✗ NOT QUITEConverters don't chain into each other, and one converter can't cover a 10-bay room. Two converters, both to the Pi via a USB hub.
CHECK 3 OF 3

On the bench test, the access control does not actuate.

✓ RIGHTA verified core kit is the entire deliverable of this phase. An access-control fault found on the bench is a calm fix; found on install day it's a room you can't secure. Resolve it before it ships.
✗ NOT QUITEHope is not a test result. Shipping an unverified kit — or assuming site wiring will save it — defeats off-site prep. Diagnose and fix on the bench.

T1.1 · PURPOSE

The network cabinet (core kit) is prepared and assembled prior to every installation to enable a true "plug and play" experience on site. Converter and repeater counts are scaled to the number of shelf bays planned for the facility. Every installation is accompanied by an Autonomi Project Manager who provides the room blueprint and planogram that govern all placement and configuration decisions.

T1.2 · ASSEMBLY STEPS

Construct the network cabinet and install the power strip.
Construct the Raspberry Pi case, insert the Pi, and connect its relay HAT.
Insert the SD card into the Raspberry Pi.
Install converters and repeaters per bay quantity; connect to power.
Connect converter to Pi via RS232–USB cable (USB hub for 2+ converters).
Connect repeaters to converters using short RJ45 cables.
Wire jumper wires to the Pi pins and relay channels per the lock scheme.
Cut the 12V adapter plug and connect to the terminal block; power up and test access control.
Print and paste the access-control scheme and the "powered by Autonomi" stickers.
Connect the Pi to the network port and ensure PoE is disabled — if active, request the networking team to disable it.

MODULE T2 OF 5LED BY AUTONOMION-SITE
RIVERSIDE BUILDSITE CONFIRMEDCABINET MOUNTEDCONNECTIVITY OKWIRING LABELED
MODULE T2 · ~15 MIN · ON-SITE

The tested kit arrives. Now it goes on the wall — in the right place.

The pre-built core kit is mounted on site according to the room blueprint. The blueprint marks the cabinet and access-control locations; power and ethernet must already be in place near the cabinet position.

This is where the ops-side readiness from Foundation Phase 05–06 meets the wall: if the site prep held, this phase is fast.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

You arrive with the core kit. Where the blueprint marks the cabinet, you don't see an ethernet port — just power.

Do you mount and move on?

✓ RIGHTThe phase opens by confirming power and ethernet ports are installed near the cabinet position. A missing port is a Phase-05 readiness gap — flag and resolve it, don't improvise a floor-run cable or abandon the blueprint.
✗ THAT'S A TRIP HAZARDA long run to a far port means loose cable in a clinical space and a cabinet fed by an afterthought. Confirm the port is where the blueprint expects it; if it isn't, that's a readiness gap to fix.
✗ THE BLUEPRINT GOVERNSCabinet and access-control positions come from the blueprint for a reason — clearances, cable runs, the planogram. Moving the cabinet to chase a port breaks the plan downstream.
CONFIRM BEFORE YOU MOUNT

Site readiness is a gate, not a formality.

1Confirm power and ethernet ports are installed near the cabinet position
2The blueprint marks the cabinet and access-control locations
3Confirm the SD card is seated in the Raspberry Pi
Because a mounted cabinet with no power or network is a stranded install. This is the exact prep the customer committed to in Foundation Phase 05 and Autonomi verified in Phase 06 — you're confirming it held. Catching a missing port before you drill is minutes; catching it after is a re-mount.
MOUNT & CONNECT

Cabinet on the wall, system online.

1Wall-mount the network cabinet per the room blueprint
2Connect the Pi to power and ethernet; verify internet connectivity
3Verify the converter is powered and connected to the Pi
The system reports inventory in real time — it has to reach the network. Verifying connectivity the moment the cabinet is powered means any network problem surfaces while you're still at the cabinet with tools out, not during training day when the app won't sync.
LABEL EVERYTHING

Clean wiring is a deliverable, not a nicety.

1Label all RJ45 cables per shelf bay
2Label access-control wires
3Leave the cabinet clean and fully labeled
Because the next person in that cabinet — for a repair, an expansion, or a fault — reads the labels, not your memory. An unlabeled bundle turns a five-minute fix into an hour of tracing. Labeling by bay is what makes the system serviceable for its whole life.
TRY IT

Cabinet mounted, Pi powered. What confirms the core is actually installed correctly?

✓ RIGHTMounted isn't installed. The core is done when connectivity is verified, the converter/Pi link confirmed, and the wiring labeled — that's the phase's stated outcome.
✗ NOT QUITELights and a correct position don't prove the system is online or serviceable. Verify connectivity and the converter link, and label the wiring.
CHECK 1 OF 3

The blueprint cabinet position has power but the ethernet port is 20 ft away.

✓ RIGHTPorts installed near the cabinet position is a confirmed prerequisite (Foundation Phase 05, per the survey). A port 20 ft off is a readiness gap to close, not to bridge with loose cable or by abandoning the blueprint.
✗ NOT QUITEA long floor/wall run is a clinical trip hazard; moving the cabinet breaks the planogram-driven layout. The port should be near the cabinet per the survey — resolve the gap.
CHECK 2 OF 3

You mount and power the cabinet, but don't check connectivity — you'll do it at training.

✓ RIGHTConnectivity is verified during core installation. Finding a network fault now, tools in hand, beats discovering it on training day when the system won't sync and you're not at the cabinet.
✗ NOT QUITEDeferring or assuming connectivity risks a dead system at training. Verify it while you're mounting the core.
CHECK 3 OF 3

It's late and the wiring works, but nothing is labeled yet.

✓ RIGHT"Clean, fully labeled wiring" is an outcome of this phase, not optional polish. Label by bay now — the next person to open the cabinet depends on it.
✗ NOT QUITEWorking-but-unlabeled wiring is a future fault that takes an hour to trace. Label the runs by bay before you close the cabinet.

RIVERSIDE BUILDHARDWARE MOUNTEDWIRED PER SPECMODE SET CORRECTLYEGRESS VERIFIED
MODULE T3 · ~15 MIN · ON-SITE

The door is part of the system — and the part with the most rules.

Access-control hardware secures the supply room entrance: a card reader, an electric strike (HES 5000), and an emergency exit button, all wired back to the network cabinet.

This is the safety-critical phase. The full wiring map lives in the Reference tab (SOW Appendix B) — the Learn flow is about the decisions and the code compliance around it.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

The strike ships in Fail Secure. A facilities manager asks you to "just set it to fail-safe so the door opens if power drops."

Reasonable-sounding request. What do you do?

✓ RIGHTFail-safe vs fail-secure is a code decision, not a preference. Convert only where the AHJ permits, never interfering with Listed panic hardware, and know the trade-off: conversion negates the fire rating on the 5300. Get it right with the jurisdiction, then set it.
✗ NOT YOUR CALL ALONE"Safer" depends on code. Fail Safe is only permitted where the AHJ allows it, and converting the 5300 negates its fire rating and can interfere with panic hardware. Don't flip it on request without the jurisdiction's sign-off.
✗ TOO RIGIDFail Secure is the default, but Fail Safe is legitimately used where the AHJ permits. The answer isn't "never" — it's "only where code allows, understanding the fire-rating trade-off."
THE HARDWARE

Three components at the entrance.

1Card reader at the entrance — run USB to the cabinet (active USB extender if needed)
2Electric strike (HES 5000) — connect per the wiring diagram
3Emergency entrance button with delay timer — set the timer to 5 seconds
4Wire per the HES 5000 + SD-7103GC-PTQ specification (Appendix B)
USB has a hard length limit before the signal degrades. If the reader-to-cabinet run is long, a passive cable silently drops the connection; an active USB extender regenerates the signal so the reader stays reliable. It's the difference between a reader that works and one that intermittently doesn't.
FAIL SECURE vs FAIL SAFE

The most consequential setting in the room.

DEFAULTThe HES 5000 ships in Fail Secure — locked when power is lost.
CONVERTTo Fail Safe (unlocked on power loss) only where the AHJ permits, never interfering with Listed panic hardware.
⚠ FIRE RATINGConversion to Fail Safe negates the fire rating on the 5300 — the rating applies to Fail Secure units only.
A fire-rated door has to stay latched to contain a fire — that's Fail Secure behaviour. Converting to Fail Safe makes the door release on power loss, which defeats fire containment, so the listing no longer applies. That's why the conversion is gated on the local jurisdiction: they own the fire-code trade-off.
CONVERTING THE STRIKE

If — and only if — the AHJ permits.

1Loosen (do not remove) the two #2-56 screws on the back of the strike
2Slide to the fail-safe position: move screws from the bottom hole (Fail Secure) to the top hole (Fail Safe)
3Tighten the bottom (wire-side) screw first, then the top; verify it now operates Fail Safe
4If it still operates Fail Secure, ensure screws are fully seated in the top position
Order matters for seating the mechanism correctly and not stressing the wiring. Bottom-first, then top, then verify the actual behaviour — don't assume the slide worked. If it still reads Fail Secure, the screws aren't fully seated in the top position.
TRY IT

You're setting the emergency entrance button's delay timer. What value?

✓ RIGHTThe emergency button's delay timer is set to 5 seconds. It's a specified value, not a judgment dial — matching spec keeps egress behaviour predictable and compliant.
✗ NOT QUITEThe delay timer has a specified setting: 5 seconds. Zero or thirty are guesses; set it to spec.
CHECK 1 OF 3

A fire-rated door. Facilities wants it converted to Fail Safe.

✓ RIGHTOn a fire-rated opening, converting to Fail Safe negates the rating and may interfere with panic hardware. That's an AHJ decision — surface the trade-off and get sign-off before touching it.
✗ NOT QUITE"Generally safer" doesn't override fire code, and converting quietly hides a rating you just voided. The fire rating is Fail-Secure-only; the AHJ decides.
CHECK 2 OF 3

After sliding the strike to fail-safe, it still operates Fail Secure.

✓ RIGHTIf it still reads Fail Secure, the screws aren't fully seated in the top position. Seat them properly and verify the behaviour again — don't force it or assume it will "settle."
✗ NOT QUITEForcing risks damaging the strike, and "close enough" on a life-safety device isn't acceptable. Seat the screws fully in the top position and re-verify.
CHECK 3 OF 3

The card-reader run to the cabinet is long, and the reader is behaving intermittently.

✓ RIGHTIntermittent behaviour over a long USB run is a signal-length problem. An active USB extender regenerates the signal — the specified fix for reader-to-cabinet distance.
✗ NOT QUITEAn intermittent reader is a failed access point; coiling cable doesn't fix signal loss. Use an active USB extender for the distance.

Loosen (do not remove) the two #2-56 screws on the back of the strike and slide to the fail-safe position.
Move screws from the bottom hole (Fail Secure) to the top hole (Fail Safe).

RIVERSIDE BUILDRACKS LEVELEDSHELVES ADDRESSEDDAISY-CHAINEDBAYS LABELED
MODULE T4 · ~15 MIN · ON-SITE

The smart shelves go in — and each one gets a name.

Smart shelf racks are installed and configured according to the room blueprint and planogram (the same planogram designed back in Foundation Phase 04). Each shelf is addressed, daisy-chained, and connected back to the network cabinet.

This is where the shelf types and the Speed Scale Tool come in — the addressing detail lives in the Reference tab (Appendix A).

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

You're about to set shelf addresses with the Speed Scale Tool. What ID does the first shelf at Riverside get?

New shelves default to ID 1. Where do you start?

✓ RIGHTFor every facility, the first shelf ID begins at 11. New shelves default to 1, so starting real addressing at 11 prevents a new/default shelf from overwriting an addressed one. It's a fixed convention, not a preference.
✗ THAT'S THE DEFAULT TRAPNew shelves ship as ID 1. If you address your first shelf as 1, the next default shelf collides with it. The convention starts every facility at 11 for exactly this reason.
✗ FOLLOW THE CONVENTIONRandom IDs make the system unreadable and still risk clashes. The rule is specific: first ID = 11, then increment.
RACK & SHELF STEPS

Level, address, chain, label.

1Install racks at blueprint-marked locations; secure each rack to the wall
2Mark each rack with an adhesive sticker and level to the floor
3Attach cable conduits; install shelf handles; confirm each shelf's height with the client
4Install shelves per the planogram; set each shelf's address (Appendix A)
5Daisy-chain with short 90° RJ45; run a long RJ45 from the top shelf to the cabinet; label each bay
Because the people using the room every day know what reaches comfortably and what gets used most. Heights are set once and hard to change later; a two-minute check with the client now avoids a shelf that's too high for the nurses who actually work there.
SHELF TYPES

Three racks, different capacities.

A600086 scales per shelf.MOST SCALES
A400084 scales. Supports P4 trays (4 medium), P2 trays (2 large on 2 scales), or a combination.FLEXIBLE TRAYS · 8 KG
A40002Like the A40008 but higher weight capacity — 20 kg vs 8 kg.HEAVY · 20 KG
The shelf type and tray layout come from the planogram, but on the floor you're confirming the physical reality matches: a P2 large-tray setup uses two scales per tray, a heavy SKU needs the 20 kg A40002. Installing the wrong rack for the planned load means a shelf that can't weigh its contents correctly.
ADDRESSING WITH THE SPEED SCALE TOOL

One shelf at a time, IDs from 11.

1Connect the converter to one smart shelf — no other shelves connected
2Select the correct COM port (Windows Device Manager); restart the utility after changing
3Read ID (new shelves default to 1), enter the new ID (start at 11), Set ID
4Read ID again to validate it was set
The tool talks to a shelf by its address, and every unaddressed shelf answers to the same default (1). Connect two at once and a Set ID is ambiguous — you can overwrite the wrong shelf or clash. One shelf on the bus at a time makes each Set/Read unambiguous.
TRY IT

You set a shelf's ID. What confirms it actually took?

✓ RIGHTThe procedure is Read → Set → Read again to validate. Confirming the new ID reads back is how you know it took, before you disconnect and move to the next shelf.
✗ NOT QUITE"No error" isn't confirmation, and batch-checking later means re-connecting shelves one by one anyway. Read the ID back immediately to validate.
CHECK 1 OF 3

You have four shelves to address and you connect all four to speed things up.

✓ RIGHTAddress one shelf at a time. With several default shelves connected, a Set ID can hit the wrong shelf — one-on-the-bus keeps every Read/Set unambiguous.
✗ NOT QUITESpeed here causes overwrites. Every unaddressed shelf answers to ID 1, so multiple on the bus clash. One shelf at a time.
CHECK 2 OF 3

The tool can't see the shelf after you connected the converter to the laptop.

✓ RIGHTNo response is almost always the COM port. Find it in Windows Device Manager, select it in the tool's Settings, and restart the utility after changing — then Read ID.
✗ NOT QUITESwapping hardware before checking the COM port wastes time — the tool talks over a specific port that must be selected (and the utility restarted) first.
CHECK 3 OF 3

Shelves are addressed. How do the bays connect back to the cabinet?

✓ RIGHTShelves daisy-chain with short 90° RJ45 routed inside the cable mold; a single long RJ45 runs from the top shelf back to the cabinet, and each bay is labeled to its converter. Clean, serviceable, per spec.
✗ NOT QUITEIndividual runs per shelf make a mess and there's no wireless bus here. Daisy-chain the shelves, one long run to the cabinet, label each bay.

MODULE T5 OF 5LED BY AUTONOMICOMPLIANCEFINAL MODULE
RIVERSIDE BUILDPPE & TOOLSQUALIFIED WORKSITE PROTECTEDINSTALLER CERTIFIED
MODULE T5 · ~15 MIN · COMPLIANCE

The system works. Now prove the whole job was done safely.

The Contractor complies with all applicable federal, state, and local occupational safety and health laws, plus any additional requirements the Client specifies. This is the same clinical-conduct discipline as Foundation Phase 08 — now as a binding contractor obligation.

This is the last Installer module. Clear it and you're Installer Certified.

YOU'RE ON THE HOOK

A junior tech offers to wire the strike's 12V supply into the building electrical to save a trip — he's handy but not a licensed electrician.

Let him?

✓ RIGHTThe SOW is explicit: electrical work is performed by qualified personnel per applicable codes. "Handy" doesn't equal licensed — in a clinical building, unqualified electrical work is a code violation and a liability, no matter how capable the person seems.
✗ CAPABILITY ≠ QUALIFICATIONCodes require qualified personnel for electrical work, full stop. Skipping that to save a trip risks a failed inspection, an insurance problem, and someone's safety.
✗ SUPERVISION DOESN'T LICENSE ITWatching an unqualified person do electrical work doesn't make it compliant. It must be done by qualified personnel per code.
CONTRACTOR OBLIGATIONS

What compliance actually requires.

1Provide all necessary PPE and ensure it is worn
2Tools and equipment maintained and inspected before use
3Electrical work by qualified personnel per applicable codes
4Lifting & rigging per applicable standards
5Prevent damage to existing structures, finishes, and equipment
Because the SOW is a binding agreement. These aren't suggestions — they're the terms the contractor signed to. A safety lapse isn't just risky; it's a breach of the agreement, with the liability that carries. Treating compliance as contractual keeps everyone honest about it.
THE CLINICAL ENVIRONMENT

You are a guest in a working clinic.

1Maintain a safe, secure work environment for the whole project
2Dispose of all waste properly per applicable regulations
3Keep a clean, quiet, respectful work area appropriate for an operational clinical environment
4Report any accident or incident to the Client immediately
Because a clinical facility may have obligations of its own that start the moment something happens — and a delayed report can turn a small incident into a compliance failure. Immediate reporting lets the Client act while it still matters, and it's the honest thing to do.
THE HANDOVER

What "done" means for the installer.

1Installation completed safely and in compliance with all applicable regulations
2No disruption to facility operations or patient care
3System handed over ready for Foundation Phase 09 (Training Day)
Because the next hands on the system are the trainer's (Foundation Phase 09) and then the customer's. A build that's technically live but left the room unsafe, messy, or non-compliant isn't done. The handover is the seam back into the ops track — leave it clean.
TRY IT

A minor accident happens on site — no injury, but a cart clipped a wall finish.

✓ RIGHTAny accident or incident is reported to the Client immediately — even minor property damage. Prompt reporting lets them meet their own obligations and keeps the record honest.
✗ NOT QUITEBatching it for later, or quietly patching it, both delay a report the SOW requires immediately. Tell the Client now.
CHECK 1 OF 3

PPE is in the van but the job is "quick" and the room is calm.

✓ RIGHTThe obligation is to provide PPE and ensure it's worn as required — task length doesn't change that. Compliance is a constant, not a function of how quick the job feels.
✗ NOT QUITE"Quick" and "calm" aren't exemptions. PPE is worn as required throughout; partial use defeats the point.
CHECK 2 OF 3

Packaging and offcuts are piling up in a corner of the supply room mid-install.

✓ RIGHTProper waste disposal and a clean area maintained throughout — the clinic is operating around you (echoing Phase 08). A pile in the room or the hallway is a hazard, not a deferred chore.
✗ NOT QUITEEnd-of-day cleanup leaves hazards all day, and the hallway is a shared clinical space. Keep it clean continuously and dispose of waste properly.
CHECK 3 OF 3

What marks the installer's job as truly complete?

✓ RIGHTA working system is necessary but not sufficient. Done = safe, compliant, no disruption to patient care, and handed over clean for Foundation Phase 09 (Training Day).
✗ NOT QUITEPowering on or mounting hardware isn't the finish line. The installer's job ends at a safe, compliant, clean handover.
🔧

Module T5 complete — Installer certified.

Phase output: installation completed safely and in compliance with all applicable regulations · no disruption to facility operations or patient care.

That's the full technical build. Combined with the Foundation track, you can run a deployment contract-to-go-live and install the system with your own hands.

CONTRACTOR OBLIGATIONS

Provide & enforce PPE
Tools maintained & inspected before use
Electrical by qualified personnel per code
Lifting/rigging per standards
Prevent damage to structures, finishes, equipment
Proper waste disposal
Report accidents/incidents to the Client immediately
Clean, quiet, respectful clinical work area

THE PRINCIPLE

The SOW is binding. Safety and clinical conduct aren't good practice — they're the signed terms. Done = safe, compliant, no disruption to care, clean handover for Training Day.

STAGE 1PLAN & DESIGN
PHASE 01 Support Team Kickoff STEPS 1–11
1AEHand off customer contactA designated customer contact is passed along right after contract execution, to schedule the kickoff.
7AESet up client trackingClient record created in the internal client list, task board opened or confirmed, target install date set, contacts logged.
8AEIMCSOPInternal project kick-offInternal team sync right after a deal closes — alignment on scope, timeline, and ownership before customer-facing kickoff prep begins.
9AECSIMSchedule & run kickoff meetingFirst meeting after signature: product demo, timeline overview (survey → planogram → install → go-live), stakeholder identification, scope confirmation, comms cadence agreed.
10AEIdentify stakeholdersNames and contacts gathered for every user role that will need access: Mobile Admin, Deputy Admin, Supplier, Consumer, Web Console Admin/User, and the ordering contact.
11CSCapture & route special/custom requirementsNon-standard requests surfaced at kickoff — e.g. system integrations, special site conditions — are logged and routed for an initial feasibility filter, then formally relayed to be spec'd and handed to Dev. Decision needed: build before go-live, or defer to a later stage while going live without it.
PHASE 02 Site Survey & Room Planning STEPS 2–6
2AESchedule site surveyOn-site survey date coordinated with the client, contact details shared with whoever conducts it.
3AEConduct physical site surveyOn-site visit: room dimensions, wall photos, infrastructure check (power/network/mounting), cabinet position, delivery path.
4IMMap floor/room layoutFloor and room layouts documented using Space Planning Software (floorplanner.com).
5IMPlan access controlAccess-control method for the room planned, with locksmith consultation on compatibility.
6IMNetwork/cybersecurity coordinationPort/NAC/firewall configuration coordinated with the client's IT team. Required addresses and intent are shared — never step-by-step firewall instructions.
PHASE 03 SKU List & Shelf Planning STEPS 12–17
12CSCollect product list + Min/MaxClient provides product names, SKUs, and Min/Max quantities per product; list checked for completeness before proceeding, min/mx, order and reporting
13CSEstimate product dimensionsDimensions estimated from experience, prior installs, online lookup, or AI assist — clients rarely have exact dimensions on hand.
14CSDetermine shelf type8kg vs. 20kg shelf decided based on product weight; unstable products (loose items, masks) flagged for a front border.
15CSSource product imagesProduct images found and attached in the Planogram Tool.
16CSCell type assignment & calculationCell type (2/3/4/6) and quantity assigned per SKU, using the reference database, prior installs, or dimension-based calculation.
17IMInternal sign-off on cell/shelf planCell and shelf plan reviewed and approved internally before the planogram is built, to catch sizing or scope issues early.
PHASE 04 Planogram Planning STEPS 18–22
18CSBuild the planogramVisual shelf layout built in the Planogram Tool — placement, grouping, validated against tray sizes and min/max.
19IMVerify planogram fits approved scopeProduct list and layout checked against the approved number of bays/shelves; any overflow flagged to the client immediately.
20CSGet planogram approvedClient reviews and approves the planogram in writing — equipment is ordered only after this.
21IMTransfer approved planogram to opsApproved planogram handed off internally to Operations, to inform equipment allocation and shipping.
22CSTransfer project scope to Dev/hardware teamFinalized project scope shared with the relevant Dev/hardware contacts so any project-specific technical details are known ahead of installation.
