Examples

template of normal Evo-Step-Tasks. Normal Evo Cycle Process:
Entry-Process {Conditions: previous step exited}
Plan: (design)
Spec: Cycle Requirements? Measurable, testable
( what we will deliver at end of Evo cycle)
Confer/agree with impacted Stakeholder on the Goal Level and Type.
Spec: Step “Designs” (if any) to implement (Impact Product-Value & Cost)
Spec: Step “Functions” (if any) to implement
Plan: Estimate: Impacts on Product-Value and Impacts on Costs.
Reduce step Content, if we exceed “2%” step size guidelines.
Plan: tasks for the week, allocate to people
Do: implement the tasks according to plan
Acquire suitable hardware/software platform
Acquire suitable people {Stakeholders and Users}
Build/Acquire/Code
Test (Internal): should we bother to hand over to a Stakeholder?
Install/deliver with Stakeholder using suitable users (Micro Field Trial, Practical Real World test)
Who manages this micro field trial? Let us say the test group.
Study:Measure the results (Product-Value against the required plan, costs, Side-Effects)
Act: decide what to do about this “feedback” in relation to our plans
Re-do it properly
Select next step (based on our experience and possible new signals)
Update project overview information and communicate to “Management”
Exit-Process {Conditions: met our targets, no unexpected problems)

Notes

[Step-Task Content] Step-Tasks are things like Planning, measuring, getting approval, training, Quality-Control and testing which must be planned and done during the Delivery-Cycle.
They are necessary overheads for moving the Design-Ideas and Function into the Host-System. They are like the activities of the cook, purchasing, measuring, heating, mixing, tasting, and serving the food to be delivered in a “cooking cycle”.
Step-Tasks are the Process components of a Delivery-Cycle.
