Where Does the Work Go?

The AI Workforce Transition Evidence & Measurement Toolkit

AI may change how long work takes. This toolkit helps teams trace where that capacity goes—and what actually changes for workers and the business.

A practical first pilot

Follow 3–5 workflows over 30 days, then bring the evidence and its gaps to a decision meeting.

For CHROs, HR and HRBP teams, L&D, workforce planners, transformation and operational leaders.

The workbook is available by request. On the contact page, tell us you are interested in the Where Does the Work Go? pilot.

Time saved is the beginning of the question

Hours and worker-equivalent estimates do not establish who moved, whether quality held, or whether value was realized. Each conclusion needs its own evidence.

Practitioner Guide

A free 12-page guide to definitions, measurement and evidence limits.

Decision Worksheet

A free two-page worksheet for recording evidence, decisions and owners.

Evidence Ledger

A 10-tab Excel workbook for a request-only pilot, with formulas, a decision log and a synthetic example.

An illustrative view of the evidence a team can bring together—not a company result.

From measurement to decision

Follow the work. Then follow the evidence.

The steps connect task-level measurement to workforce outcomes without treating one as proof of the other.

  1. 01

    Measure comparable work

    Define an accepted work unit and compare human effort, including review and rework.

  2. 02

    Validate quality

    Check defects, exceptions and risk before treating any time as released capacity.

  3. 03

    Trace the destination

    Look for documented changes in assignments, demand, learning or work volume.

  4. 04

    Reconcile workforce flows

    Compare actual hires, transfers and exits separately from capacity estimates.

  5. 05

    Make an evidence-led decision

    Review human authority, worker outcomes and business evidence before deciding what to do next.

Illustrative dashboard

Keep evidence gaps visible

The dashboard brings work measurement, quality, workforce flows and authority controls into one view. Blank values signal insufficient evidence, not zero impact.

Illustrative preview only. It does not contain company or employee data.

A 30-day path

Start with 3–5 workflows and named owners. Keep the work manageable enough to investigate quality and people outcomes, not just speed.

Days 1–5

Select workflows, define quality and establish a baseline.

Days 6–15

Observe AI-assisted work and record human review and rework.

Days 16–22

Trace assignments, workforce flows, capability and authority.

Days 23–30

Reconcile evidence, examine alternatives and decide what comes next.

What the toolkit can—and cannot—show

It helps a team organize comparable measurements, verify documented movements and identify what remains unknown. A slower workflow, a failed quality check or missing evidence belongs in the record.

It is not a validated maturity score, causal employment analysis, certified audit or guarantee of ROI. Saved hours and FTE-equivalent capacity do not establish job losses, redeployments or realized financial savings.
