# 9Melons AI Opportunities Checklist for UK SMEs

Use this checklist to decide whether a workflow is a strong first AI project.

## Workflow Fit

- Is the process repetitive enough to happen every week?
- Is there a clear owner for the workflow?
- Can your team describe what a good output looks like?

## Data Fit

- Do the inputs already exist in documents, inboxes, forms, spreadsheets, or systems?
- Is the data good enough to start with a pilot?
- Do you know which systems the workflow needs to connect to?

## Delivery Fit

- Can the first phase stay narrow enough to launch in 30 to 90 days?
- Do you know where human review must remain in place?
- Can you measure time saved, response quality, or throughput improvement?

## Good First-Project Candidates

- Invoice and document routing
- Internal knowledge assistants
- Support ticket triage
- CRM cleanup and lead qualification
- Mobile workflows for field teams

## Red Flags

- The workflow touches too many teams on day one.
- Success depends on perfect historical data.
- Nobody owns the process.
- The team wants a broad chatbot before fixing the underlying workflow.
