Core Workflows

核心工作流

1. Program charter

1. 项目章程

Define before execution:
  • Objective and measurable outcomes (not output lists)
  • Scope: teams, systems, in/out
  • Timeline: phases, hard dates, external dependencies
  • Roles: DRI per workstream, escalation path
  • Success metrics and definition of done
See
references/program_charter.md
for charter template.
在执行前定义以下内容:
  • 目标与可衡量成果(而非输出列表)
  • 范围:涉及团队、系统、包含/排除项
  • 时间线:阶段、硬性日期、外部依赖
  • 角色:每个工作流的DRI、升级路径
  • 成功指标与完成定义
项目章程模板请参考
references/program_charter.md

2. Work breakdown and dependencies

2. 工作分解与依赖关系梳理

  1. Decompose into workstreams (each with one DRI)
  2. List deliverables per workstream with dates
  3. Build dependency graph (finish-to-start; flag circular deps)
  4. Identify critical path and buffer on that path only
  5. Mark integration milestones (API freeze, env parity, dress rehearsal)
See
references/dependency_risk.md
for dependency types and RAID format.
  1. 将项目分解为多个工作流(每个工作流对应一名DRI)
  2. 列出每个工作流的交付物及日期
  3. 构建依赖关系图(完成到启动模式;标记循环依赖)
  4. 识别关键路径并仅在该路径上设置缓冲时间
  5. 标记集成里程碑(API冻结、环境一致性、模拟演练)
依赖类型与RAID格式请参考
references/dependency_risk.md

3. Operating rhythm

3. 运营节奏

CadenceAudiencePurpose
WeeklyWorkstream DRIsBlockers, date slips, dependency asks
BiweeklySponsors / leadsScope, risk, decision needs
Pre-launchLaunch councilReadiness checklist
  • One source of truth for status (doc or tracker—not duplicate spreadsheets)
  • Decisions logged with owner and date; no re-litigating closed calls
See
references/status_reporting.md
for status template.
频次受众目的
每周工作流DRI障碍排查、日期延误、依赖请求
每两周项目发起人/负责人范围调整、风险评估、决策需求
发布前发布委员会就绪检查清单
  • 状态信息单一可信来源(文档或跟踪工具——避免重复使用电子表格)
  • 决策需记录负责人与日期;已关闭的决策不再重新讨论
状态报告模板请参考
references/status_reporting.md

4. Risk and issue management

4. 风险与问题管理

  • Risk: may happen → mitigation + trigger
  • Issue: happened → owner + ETA + comms plan
  • Escalate when: critical path slip > agreed threshold, scope creep without sponsor, unresolved cross-team conflict
See
references/dependency_risk.md
for RAID columns.
  • 风险:可能发生的情况 → 缓解措施 + 触发条件
  • 问题:已发生的情况 → 负责人 + 预计解决时间 + 沟通计划
  • 需升级的场景:关键路径延误超出约定阈值、未经发起人批准的范围蔓延、未解决的跨团队冲突
RAID列说明请参考
references/dependency_risk.md

5. Stakeholder communication

5. 相关方沟通

  • Status: RAG per workstream, changes since last week, asks
  • No technical deep dives in exec updates—link appendix
  • Align messaging before external comms (customers, support, legal)
See
references/stakeholder_comms.md
for audience-specific formats.
  • 状态:按工作流划分RAG状态、自上次报告以来的变更、需求请求
  • 高管更新中不涉及技术细节——可链接附录内容
  • 对外沟通(客户、支持团队、法务)前需统一消息口径
针对不同受众的沟通格式请参考
references/stakeholder_comms.md

6. Launch readiness

6. 发布就绪检查

Gate checklist before production:
  • All critical-path items complete or explicitly waived by sponsor
  • Rollback/runbook owned (
    deployment-strategist
    +
    devops
    )
  • Monitoring and on-call briefed
  • Support/docs updated
  • Go/no-go with named approvers
See
references/launch_readiness.md
for full checklist.
上线前需完成以下检查清单:
  • 所有关键路径项已完成或经发起人明确豁免
  • 回滚/运行手册已确定负责人(
    deployment-strategist
    +
    devops
  • 监控与值班人员已完成 briefing
  • 支持文档已更新
  • 由指定审批人完成上线/不上线决策
完整检查清单请参考
references/launch_readiness.md
