Pilot Readiness Calculator

Is this store set ready for a focused pilot, or should the team fix record basics first?

Store story

What This Calculator Helps You Decide

A pilot can look successful just because everyone is paying attention. The better question is whether the store set is small enough, staffed enough and measured enough to produce a useful day-14 report. This calculator keeps the pilot from becoming a vague trial.

Use the score to decide whether to launch, narrow the pilot, or fix the starting point before stores change routines.

A small test that can show adoption, open cash-issue owners, review speed, follow-up value and time saved.

Outcome

A small test that can show adoption, open cash-issue owners, review speed, follow-up value and time saved.

Decision rule

If the starting point is weak, fix the launch conditions before judging whether the steps work.

Use It When

  • Leadership wants to start a pilot but has not chosen the first stores.
  • The team is unsure whether the starting point is strong enough to compare later.
  • A rollout conversation needs evidence rather than enthusiasm.

How the Number Works

  • Pilot size fit, manager coverage, proof starting point, open cash-gap owners and owner clarity are weighted across the team.
  • Two to five stores score best because the pilot is large enough to learn and small enough to manage.
  • The score is a launch gate, not a profit claim.

What Good Looks Like

  • The pilot has two to five stores with manager coverage.
  • Proof and cash-difference starting points are known before day one.
  • The day-14 report can recommend rollout, extension, narrowing, or stop.

Next step

Turn the Number Into a Review Decision

Use the calculator result with a guide, pilot path, or related calculator so the number changes the work instead of sitting as a one-time estimate.
