How to fill it in (20 minutes)

List candidates. Ask each department head: which repetitive job eats the most hours every week?
Size the value. Hours per week or pounds per quarter. Estimates are fine; write the assumption down.
Score the effort. Low = no-code automation territory. Medium = needs systems access. High = needs IT at the table.
Sequence. High value + low effort goes Now. Everything else earns Next or Later, not a maybe.
Name an owner and a route. A priority without a trained owner is a wish. This is where the funded routes fit.

The funded routes column, decoded

Most Now-column items are buildable by an AI & Automation Practitioner Level 4 apprentice: live automation by month 3, working AI agent by month 4, £18,000 of training fully funded for SMEs or levy-funded.

Strategy, governance and rollout ownership sit with leaders: the three Level 5 AI Leadership Units (£750 per learner per unit, levy-funded), sampled free at the taster days.
