01 / Context
Automation had to accelerate decisions without hiding uncertainty.
Inbound requests varied in completeness, intent and priority. Manual qualification consumed time, but a purely automatic decision could silently reject or misroute a valuable case.
The workflow therefore needed more than a classifier. It needed explicit validation, confidence states, ownership, audit history and a safe route to human review whenever the system could not make a reliable decision.
02 / Architecture
Every decision becomes a visible state in the workflow.
Processing is modelled as a sequence of controlled transitions. A request cannot disappear between services: each step records what happened, why it happened and which action should follow.
Request→Validate→Classify→Route→Review if uncertain
Confidence-aware routing
Automation acts only when the result meets the defined reliability threshold.
Human fallback
Uncertain cases enter a visible review queue instead of failing silently.
03 / Responsibility
Workflow logic designed together with production behavior.
- Decision designDefined validation states, confidence rules and fallback conditions.
- API developmentImplemented processing services and CRM actions.
- ObservabilityAdded event history and traceable reasons for every transition.
- Operational safetyProtected uncertain cases with explicit human ownership.
