Track A1 · Day 1 & Day 2

Think big on Day 1, go deep on Day 2

Every session is hands-on – mentors work live against your own material, not generic demos, so leaders see exactly how AI applies to the work in front of them, not a hypothetical.

Day 1 · Think big
10:30–11:30
Opening: Why Now, Why Us
Founder framing – AI as an operating-model shift, anchored to the Infor LN migration and the 9AI project agent.
11:45–1:45
AI Landscape: Opportunities & Competitive Advantage
Prompt engineering fundamentals + 4–5 hands-on demos on I.EVO-like material.
1:45–2:30

AI Strategy & Business Case Studies
2–3 comparable-business case studies from organisations further along the AI journey.
4:15–6:00
Working Session – AI Use-Case Deep Dive I
Mentor demos live on real I.EVO material – a real BOQ, drawing, or status doc – 2 use cases drawn directly from I.EVO's own operations. Then hands the tool to HODs to try on their own function's problem.
Day 2 · Go deeper
9:30–11:00
AI Upskilling – Business Use Cases & Tool Deep Dive I
Live tool demo on a use case specific to that department's daily work – audience watches real output get produced, then gets a hands-on rep. Post-read + assignment included.
11:15–12:30
Governance, Compliance & AI Roadmap
12:30–1:30
Lunch
1:30–3:30
AI Tool Deep Dive II
Second wave of live demos + hands-on practice, deepening tool fluency on use cases relevant to each function.
3:30–4:15
Governance & AI Usage Charter
HODs finalise the draft AI usage charter together – what can go into a tool, and when to stop and ask.
4:30–6:00
Close & Champion Nominations
Each department nominates 1–2 AI Champions to carry the practice forward, and the room closes with a shared roadmap for what comes next.

Opportunity Screening

From Problem Register to Implementation Opportunities

This step does not identify new problems — it takes the problems already logged in the audited Problem Register (plus anything fresh an HOD wants to add) and screens, scores, and ranks each one into a short-list of implementation project opportunities for Track A and Track B.

Input — Problem Register (already audited) 4-Step Screen & Rank Output — Ranked Implementation Opportunities
1

Screen

Pick an item already logged in the Problem Register, or add one not yet on the list. HOD is named as sponsoring owner.

2

Score

Rate 4 Complexity factors and 4 Benefit factors, 1–5 each, against a written scale — not a blank number.

3

Place

The two averages plot the opportunity on a Complexity × Benefit quadrant.

4

Rank & Route

Quadrant sets a Priority Index and routes the item into the Track A or Track B implementation pipeline — the short-list sorts on that automatically.

Complexity — how hard to build

Averaged 1–5 across 4 factors

Build Time — hours of prompting → needs the iEvo Net rebuild

Build Cost (ROM) — ~₹0 → ₹5L+ spend

Data & Systems Readiness — already clean → doesn't exist yet

Dependency Risk — standalone → blocked on Infor LN / the rebuild

Benefit — how much it matters

Averaged 1–5 across 4 factors

Time Saved — negligible → frees up a meaningful share of an FTE

Cost Avoided / Value — negligible → ₹10L+ a year

Quality / Risk Reduction — negligible → removes a compliance-level risk

Strategic Reach — one task → cross-functional / whole lifecycle phase

Placement rule — Benefit ≥ 3.5 is "high", Complexity ≤ 2.5 is "low"

Quick Win

High benefit, low complexity → Track B implementation candidate

Major Bet

High benefit, high complexity → Track A leadership-sponsored initiative

Fill-In

Low benefit, low complexity → optional practice material only

Park

Low benefit, high complexity → not pursued this cycle

Ranking formula

Priority Index = Benefit − Complexity

The short-list sorts highest-to-lowest on this single number — Quick Wins naturally rise to the top, Parked items sink to the bottom, no manual re-sorting needed as more opportunities get screened.

Mellone

Business Value Realization (BVR)

One-page implementation value case

Filled once per use case — Track A HODs, twice (intra + cross-functional); Track B participants, once — so the "Business Value & Quantified Impact" score in each rubric is backed by a real number, not a judgment call.

Suggested framework — not yet approved. The structure, formulas, and scoring bands below are Mellone's proposal for I.EVO to review. The rate card (₹/hour by role) is a required input from I.EVO Finance/HR and is not filled in until supplied. Nothing on this page should be treated as final until I.EVO leadership signs off.

BVR — Post-Deployment Tracking

Projected vs. actual, 30 / 60 / 90 days

The BVR page's numbers are a projection made before the implementation goes live. This sheet is the same opportunity, checked three times after go-live, to see if the projection actually held up.

Suggested framework — not yet approved. Pending I.EVO sign-off, and pending confirmation of who owns the 30/60/90 check-in (Champion, HOD, or Mellone) and how it connects to the separately-proposed governance/kill-switch layer.

Track B · Practitioner Curriculum

Six modules per department, split between what's true for everyone and what has to be rebuilt for each function so the practice work is genuinely theirs.

M1

AI Foundations for Our Work

What today's AI tools are good at, where they quietly get it wrong, and the habit of checking before trusting.

STATIC
M2

Responsible Use & Data Rules

The Track A usage charter turned into everyday practice – what can go into a tool, and when to stop and ask.

STATIC
M3

Prompting as a Craft

Role, context, constraints, format – practised on that department's own real tasks, not generic examples.

×6 DEPTS
M4

AI in Your Workflow

Mapping one recurring task to an AI-assisted version – the task is department-specific by definition.

×6 DEPTS
M5

Working with Our Systems

Which Infor LN / 9AI touchpoints matter, and how to escalate when the agent gets it wrong – differs by function.

×6 DEPTS
M6

Capstone Assignment (brief)

Generic instructions to pick a real task, execute it AI-assisted, and document before/after for review.

STATIC

M3–M5 · What "Dynamic" Actually Means

Not a Udemy course with a company logo on it

Every department is taught the same five-part prompting skeleton — but the content inside it is pulled from that department's own audited pain points, so the practice work is a real task, not a stand-in example.

What stays constant — the skeleton, taught once to everyone

Costing & Tendering

Audit ref: T-13, T-14
Naive

"Cost this BOQ."

Prices must come from Hitesh's costing sheet; catalogue items pull the Library's locked price; flag anything missing instead of guessing.

PMC / Central Ops

Audit ref: P-5, P-7
Naive

"Summarise this thread."

Dynamic

Restate the open decision as a single yes/no question with a deadline and named owner — inside the 24–48h SLA, before it gets ducked again.

Design / Hanmac / PCD

Audit ref: PR-6, PR-7
Naive

"Fix this drawing note."

Dynamic

State what changed AND what didn't, so it survives all 4 hops of the Pytha→PCD→Designer→PCD→Pytha loop without a phone call.

Track B · Department AI Labs

In-person

Where the recorded modules meet real work, live – and where each department's AI Champion starts stepping into the mentor role they'll carry after we leave.

AI Lab – 1 dedicated day per department, in person

A live, hands-on session run on 1–2 real scenarios sourced directly from that department group's section of I.EVO's problem register – depth over coverage, not a tour of possibilities. Delivered as 4 hours per department group, split into two 2-hour sessions across the day.

Co-facilitated: mentor + that department's AI Champion
On-site at I.EVO – not delivered remotely

Office Hours – 2 hrs/week, 3 sessions

Common to all departments, run together, and matched to what's just been taught – Week 1 covers M1–M3, Week 2 covers M4–M6, Week 4 supports the capstone push. This is the lightweight async-support mechanism I.EVO asked for.

Mentor-led, with Champions present as second responders

Track B · Capstone Structure

One capstone, flexible team

Every Track B participant completes one applied capstone, built on a real, sponsored task from their own work – solved individually, or as a group formed either within or outside their department, whichever fits the task best.

Individual

Completed solo, entirely by one participant, on a task they own.

Team – within department

3–4 participants from the same department take on one shared task together.

Team – outside department

3–4 participants spanning two or more departments team up on a shared task.

Where capstone ideas come from

Problem Register Opportunity Screening & Ranking HOD Consolidates & Assigns Track B Capstone Shortlist

Capstone tasks aren't picked freely by participants – they're drawn from the same ranked opportunities produced by Opportunity Screening. Each HOD consolidates their function's ranked list and hands Track B a curated set of sponsored opportunities to build from.

HOD role in Track B — RACI

A

Accountable

HODs are formally embedded in Track B, not just Track A

Each HOD is the Accountable owner of their function's capstones – consolidating and assigning the ranked opportunities, and signing off that submitted work maps to a real sponsored task. Champions are Responsible for day-to-day delivery support; Mellone is Consulted on rubric and evaluation; Founders stay Informed on outcomes.

Recognition is tied to involvement, not attendance – an HOD's engagement across their function's Track B capstones feeds into their own standing on the Belt Competency Ladder, not a side commitment sitting outside the incentive structure.
Mellone

Track B · Evaluation Framework

Evaluation isn't a survey at the end – it's built into the same touchpoints participants already move through. Certification is earned on capstone pass plus the data-rules test, never on attendance alone.

1. Baseline

Relevance & confidence per module / lab

Short pulse survey before and after each recorded module and after the live AI Lab

2. Learning

Prompting skill & data-rules comprehension

Gating quiz after every module (pass required to unlock the next) plus a final prompting-task + data-rules scenario test before capstone eligibility

3. Application

Capstone evaluation

M6 capstone scored against a shared rubric, two-stage review

Standard capstone submission format

1. Prompt(s) used 2. Output produced 3. Human edits made to the output 4. Time comparison vs. the manual method 5. Data-rules self-check

Two-stage review on the capstone

Champion scores domain correctness.

Mellone moderates AI-usage quality.

Agency-moderated for the first two cohorts, then champion-led.

Reporting cadence – including per-cohort completion-rate data – will be jointly defined with I.EVO, and delivered as part of the per-cohort scorecard.
Mellone

Track B · Capstone (M6) Evaluation Rubric

Two stages: hard gates that must all pass before scoring begins, then five weighted dimensions scored 1–4. Mellone will supply one sample capstone project, one sample submission and one sample evaluation to make the process clear.

Stage 1 – Eligibility Gates

Two tracks share one five-belt sequence – White, Yellow, Green, Blue, Black. White and Yellow are Track B-only; Green and Blue are shared. Black sits above Blue in both tracks – not a rung either track's structure guarantees, but a separate, discretionary tier.

Mellone

Sustain Layer

The programme has to survive after we leave. Champions are the mechanism – and their preparation starts inside Track B itself, not in a separate room afterward.

Who champions are

1–2 per department, nominated by HODs during Track A's closing session – drawn from within that department's own Track B cohort, not hired in externally.

How they're prepared

Co-facilitating their department's live AI Lab alongside the mentor is the apprenticeship – they're already applying rubric-thinking to real cases before being asked to run it solo.

Half-day train-the-champion session

How to score capstone assignments against the shared rubric
How to unblock and motivate participants through a fully self-paced course
How to onboard new joiners into the recorded content going forward
After two departments, gradually the champions take over capstone scoring independently – Mellone steps back to moderation-on-request rather than moderating every submission.
At close: I.EVO receives editable source content, with champions able to generate new-joiner assignments from the same rubric template. This half-day session is included in Year 1 as part of the core Track B fee; an optional AMC retainer covers content refresh and champion re-enablement from Year 2 onward.
