The opportunity

A real need.
A considered response.

Onboarding depends on many people remembering many steps: accounts, equipment, training and introductions. A companion keeps the checklist moving, reminds the right owners and answers routine questions from approved material.

DESIGNED AROUND

New employees, their managers and the HR and IT teams who prepare their first weeks.

Under the surface

The engineering
behind the experience.

Architecture is a starting hypothesis. Discovery and representative tests decide what belongs in the first build.

POTENTIAL CONNECTIONSHR systemIT service deskChat or email
01Architecture to explore
  • Checklist templates for each role
  • Notifications through existing chat or email
  • Retrieval over approved onboarding documents
02Integration dependencies

HR system, IT service desk, Chat or email. Confirm access, data ownership, update frequency and failure behaviour during discovery.

03Validation and human control

Track tasks completed on time, joiner questions resolved and the follow-up effort for managers. Access approvals, contracts and personal records stay in the HR and IT systems with their owners.

A useful first step

Start small.
Learn something real.

One team’s onboarding plan for its next three new joiners, compared with the current process.

Evidence to look for

Track tasks completed on time, joiner questions resolved and the follow-up effort for managers.

A boundary to design for

Access approvals, contracts and personal records stay in the HR and IT systems with their owners.

Proposed scope, not a delivery commitment. Data, permissions, operational constraints and sector requirements need review before implementation.
