Activities

9.0 Feedback Channel Setup

The feedback channel is established by Dana during Stage 7 (Delivery). Fiona activates monitoring at the start of Stage 9.

Product Type Channel Mechanism
Agent (repo-based) feedback/ folder in deployed repo Customer creates one markdown file per issue using feedback-template.md. Fiona monitors the folder.
Standalone (HTML tool, document) Shared delivery folder OneDrive/agents/{client}/feedback/ or equivalent. Customer drops feedback files there.
Any product Email fallback Dedicated support email (if configured in Stage 8). Dana forwards to Fiona.

Template: workflows/templates/feedback-template.md — covers bug reports, feature requests, questions, and usability issues with priority levels.

Monitoring cadence: Fiona checks active feedback channels weekly during the support period, or on notification from Dana/support.

9.1 Define Feedback Schedule

Milestone When Method
Initial At delivery (Stage 7) Collected by Dana
30-day 30 days post-delivery Structured questionnaire
60-day 60 days post-delivery Structured questionnaire
90-day 90 days post-delivery Questionnaire + review call
Ongoing As needed Ad-hoc via support channel

9.1b Autonomy Promotion Review (Bike Method)

The 30/60/90-day milestones double as autonomy promotion reviews. See departments/methodology/methodology-specialist-marcel/manufacturing-methodology/autonomy-ladder.md.

At each milestone, Fiona checks the talent's performance against the promotion criteria for its current rung:

  • Rung 1 → 2: ≥10 supervised runs, ≥90% outputs accepted without substantive correction, 0 critical errors.
  • Rung 2 → 3: clean window, sustained acceptance, 0 critical regressions, client sign-off.

Outcome is promote / hold / demote. A critical error drops the talent one rung immediately (posture in settings.json tightened to match). Pablo approves Rung 1→2; the client approves Rung 2→3. The new rung, the evidence, and the settings.json change are recorded in the order's process/.

9.2 Feedback Questions

At each milestone, ask about each capability delivered:

  • Frequency of use (daily, weekly, rarely, never)
  • Output quality (1-5)
  • Missing features or gaps
  • Usability issues
  • Overall satisfaction (1-10)
  • Top change request
  • NPS recommendation score

Product-specific feedback questions come from the work order.

9.3 Analyze and Route Feedback

Feedback Type Route To Action
Product defect Max (Maintenance) Bug fix
Feature request Pablo (Production Line) Evaluate for next version
Domain/methodology gap Pablo + Ada Pattern/skill enhancement
Usability issue Pablo Skill prompt improvement
Documentation gap Remy (Docs) Documentation update
Process issue Relevant department Process improvement
Positive feedback Company records Testimonials and learning

9.4 Feed Back into Factory

Aggregate insights across clients to improve: the production line, pattern catalog (Ada), quality gates (Quinn), assembly process (Pablo), and intake questions (Camille).

Outputs

Deliverable Format Destination
Feedback reports Markdown Order records
Improvement recommendations Markdown Routed to relevant roles
Client satisfaction score Numeric Company dashboard

Quality Gate

Gate: Feedback collected and actionable items routed. Criteria: Schedule defined, first feedback collected, actionable items routed, satisfaction baseline established. Evidence: Feedback log + routing log.
