Overview Artifacts Workflow Product intake

A rescue system for pilots that need intervention, not more hope

Watson is for the messy middle: the proof of concept that looked strong in demos but is drifting in real delivery. It gives teams a way to diagnose what failed, narrow scope, recover trust, and relaunch under tighter controls.

Who this product is built for

The outputs teams actually use

These are the delivery artifacts the repo is designed to produce, not just the internal implementation detail.

Artifact

Exec update

Explains what failed, what changed, and what decision is now required.

Artifact

Recovery scorecard

Tracks whether quality, usage, and cost are actually moving in the right direction.

Artifact

Production handoff

Defines ownership and operating conditions once the pilot is stable.

How it gets used in real delivery

Each product is designed to slot into a fixed-scope Baker Street engagement rather than sit as a disconnected side project.

Week 1

Triage the failure pattern, narrow the scope, and define a rescue path.

Week 2-3

Stabilize the workflow, tighten controls, and add clear evaluation gates.

Week 4

Decide on relaunch readiness and hand over the stable operating model.

Use it alongside the rest of the Baker Street system

Have a pilot that works in slides but not in operations?

Watson is built for that exact situation: when confidence is falling, the workflow is too broad, and the team needs a practical rescue or clean decision fast.
