Enterprise Delegated Administration
Bet Brief
The smallest artifact that preserves the logic of an investment: the decision, evidence, outcome, boundaries, capacity and conditions for changing course.
One Bet / the current decision
DECISION · OWNER · STATE
Fund a bounded enterprise pilot? Jane Smith, CPO · Shape · Commitment: Yellow.
PROBLEM & POPULATION
Regional administrators at multi-division enterprise customers cannot delegate authority without central approval bottlenecks.
OUTCOME & GUARDRAILS
Reduce provisioning from five days to less than one day while preserving centralized revocation and auditability.
EVIDENCE & LIMITS
Three customer observations; two delayed implementations; four support patterns. Problem evidence is stronger than solution evidence.
SMALLEST CREDIBLE BET
A bounded delegated-role model for two launch customers. Exclude a general rules engine, arbitrary roles and historical migration.
CAPACITY & DISPLACEMENT
8–12 team-weeks. Onboarding analytics moves approximately six weeks.
ASSUMPTIONS & DEPENDENCIES
Customers accept the policy model; identity architecture supports delegated roles. Validate identity and security before promising rollout.
PROOF & NEXT DECISION
Measure cycle time, auditability and support effort. Review at 30 and 60 days after release; kill, fix or scale against evidence.
