# How can a team use AI to turn the way people actually do a task into clear, up-to-date standard operating procedures?

Start with one task that is done often and done differently by different people, and capture how the most reliable person does it, through a screen or phone recording, a walkthrough call or their own rough notes. AI turns that into a numbered procedure in the team template, with the purpose, who does it, tools needed, each step, checks and what to do when something goes wrong, and lists questions where the source was unclear. The task owner checks and corrects the draft, a second person tests it by following it exactly, and the approved version gets an owner and a review date.

## What this means in practice

- Start with one frequent task done differently by different people.
- Capture how the most reliable person does it.
- Draft a numbered procedure in the team template and list unclear points.
- Have the owner correct it and a second person test it.
- Give each approved procedure an owner and a review date.

## How Lid Vizion approaches it

We start with the business decision and operating context, define ownership and measurable milestones, then use configuration, integrations, automation, or custom software only where each earns its place.
