  • Prioritize high-value fulfillment and planning use cases.
  • Establish metrics for accuracy, cost, reliability, adoption, and resilience.
  • Apply modern product-management practices to accelerate delivery and adoption.
  • Communicate strategy, risks, tradeoffs, progress, and measurable business impact.
