Twenty frameworks for running merchandise as an operation
Working frameworks for the parts of merchandise that are process rather than product: brand consistency, quality control, compliance, crisis handling and the rhythm of an annual programme.

Repeatable shapes for recurring problems
A framework here is a repeatable shape for a recurring problem. The brand system framework fixes the rules that make a set of items read as one campaign rather than as six suppliers' work. The quality framework defines the checkpoints between the order and the carton. The crisis framework covers what to do when a shipment is late, a print arrives wrong or a claim is raised. The artificial intelligence operations framework deals with artwork preparation and the human review that has to sit behind it.
They are written to be adopted rather than admired. Each one names the artefacts a team needs, the roles that own them, the frequency and the decision that each artefact supports. The compliance and sustainability frameworks are the two procurement tends to request first, because they are the ones a supplier questionnaire will not cover.

Questions about the frameworks
Do we need all twenty?
No. Most teams adopt three or four. The brand, quality and compliance frameworks change the result fastest.
Can these be adapted to our own process?
Yes, and they are meant to be. They describe the shape of a good process rather than our internal naming.
Are the frameworks used on client programmes?
Yes. They are the working documents behind the programmes we run with clients, with the client-specific detail removed.
