What it claims
A high-level activity list supporting planning for a pilot delivering covenants and valuations functionality to a small user base on the CLM Transformation Programme (Non-Retail scope: Corporate, SME, Leveraged Finance, Commercial Real Estate).
Pilot design considerations. Parallel running with the existing semi-automated process; CLM UI with a small set of alerts and events; threshold-driven borrower-level metrics; one near-real-time source via event services and one batch source; ODS seeded and used as the system of record for the UI; Power BI access to the ODS schema; Enterprise Borrower View over the pilot population; full data quality and lineage end to end.
Organisation. 13 workstreams, 63 sub-activities. Captured workstreams include:
- WS1 Mobilisation & Governance — pilot mandate, success criteria, named user cohort (RMs, credit analysts, back-ups, SMEs), governance interlock with CLM Design Sub-Committee / DQ Forum / Steering Committee.
- WS2 Scope, Requirements & Use Cases — covenants user-story map; valuations user-story map; alerts and events catalogue; borrower-level CDE metric definitions; testable acceptance criteria mapped to OKRs and SREP items; parallel-run design.
- WS3 Data Architecture & ODS Design — extends ODS canonical model for covenant / valuation / borrower entities; confirms golden-source systems with signed data-supply contracts and DQ SLAs; aligns to Enterprise Customer Hierarchy, LEIs and Tier Matrix reference data; documents end-to-end lineage; produces ADRs for Design Sub-Committee approval.
- WS9 Power BI / Reporting — role-based access pattern with row-level security; curated semantic model / dataset; pilot dashboards for covenants, valuations and DQ KPIs; auditable user-access approval trail.
- WS13 Exit Criteria, Lessons Learned & Scale Decision — exit-criteria scorecard; lessons-learned workshop; scale-up recommendation paper to Steering / Design Sub-Committee; refreshed R1 build backlog; pilot closeout report and handover to BAU governance.
Notable quotes
None — own-writing.
What’s speculative vs. asserted
- Asserted: the 13-workstream / 63-sub-activity structure and the pilot design parameters.
- Speculative: acceptance criteria and scale-up decision are downstream and not yet evidenced; this is a planning artefact.
Topics this feeds
Open questions raised
- Which named cohort of RMs and credit analysts will form the pilot user base.
- Whether parallel-run divergence handling will require process changes downstream of the pilot.
Ingestion note
Consolidates a cluster of Open Brain task-type thoughts dated 13 May 2026 (the most recent capture in the corpus), each documenting one of the 13 workstreams.
