The IMS framework

DELTA

Automate only what is necessary.

THE PREMISE

Evidence before automation

Resolving the AI adoption challenge requires an objective diagnostic that evaluates every micro-task against fixed rubrics. We deliver evidence of automation requirements before pitching pricing models.

“Automate what deserves it. Keep decisions human critical.”

OUR METHODOLOGY

Task level clarity

Resolving the AI adoption challenge requires a method that evaluates every micro-task against fixed categorisations.

Five pillars leading to one outcome

Pillar 1:

Decomposition

Core Focus:

Breaks a process down into operational layers and individual micro-tasks.

Why It Matters:

The micro-task is the unit of analysis; evaluating entire functions leads to coarse, unusable decisions.

Pillar 2:

Eligibility

Core Focus:

Classifies every task as AI Native, AI Assisted, or Human Critical against defined criteria.

Why It Matters:

Explicitly protects human judgment while isolating tasks genuinely suited for automation.

Pillar 3:

Learnability Scoring

Core Focus:

Scores tasks 1 to 5 on input structure, output predictability, rule dependency, volume, and repetition.

Why It Matters:

Uses a published, versioned rubric to ensure engineering focus remains on high-feasibility, high-ROI tasks.

Pillar 4:

Topology

Core Focus:

Maps systems channeling the process, data elements touched, integration gaps, and unrecorded manual hand-offs.

Why It Matters:

Uncovers operational gaps and system friction before buying software or writing code. .

Pillar 5:

Adaptability

Core Focus:

Scores organizational readiness 1 to 5 across five dimensions against a 12-month target profile.

Why It Matters:

Evaluates organizational readiness after task data is captured, preventing deployment failure in unready environments.

The Outcome

DELTA delivers evidence of automation requirements, free of vendor bias, sequenced into immediate, first-phase, and second-phase actions.

OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS

What The Framework Found

Applied to sourcing and screening, the split was clear.

AI-Native Workload

~95%

Repetitive, structured, data-driven tasks.

Parsing & extracting candidate info
Matching candidates to job requirements
Ranking suitability
Identifying skill gaps
Generating screening questions
Analysing recruitment cycle metrics

Completes in seconds:

Produces transparent, auditable outputs that recruiters review.

Human-Critical Decisions

~5%

Work that should never be delegated to technology.

Remains entirely human:

Always, regardless of how capable technology becomes.

Our analysis indicates roughly a 95/5 split across sourcing and screening activity as an illustrative framing of operational weight.

COMMERCIAL ADVANTAGE

Three Ways to Deploy

Single-Process
Assessment

(Where Almost Everyone Should Start)

One process, one agreed boundary, 4 to 6 weeks to delivery.

Multi-Process
Programme

(Cross-Functional Audit)

Multiple processes assessed under one consolidated roadmap over 8 to 16 weeks.

Annual Re-Assessment
Subscription

(Continuous Governance)

12 months of measurement against implemented changes.

One Method Underneath

Calculated Upfront:

Fees are fixed per engagement based on transparent estimates of step-level hours.

Zero Vendor Bias:

We do not recommend or resell software, and we take no kickbacks or commissions from vendors.

Strict Separation:

Implementation is never bundled in any package and is quoted only after your report is released.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Will DELTA automate final hiring decisions or candidate outreach?

No. Candidate engagement, client consultation, and final hiring decisions are classified as Human Critical and remain 100% human-owned.

How does DELTA eliminate vendor bias and "black box" risks?

DELTA is vendor-agnostic. Every time-saving figure carries a visible measurement basis and evidence grade, and non-overridable human guardrails are locked into the system boundaries.

Which specific tasks are handled by AI under this framework?

A: Only tasks classified as AI Native or AI Assisted during task-level eligibility scoring (e.g., CV parsing, skill mapping, and data extraction).

How are DELTA engagement fees structured?

A: Fees are fixed upfront based on step-level hour estimates. They never vary based on your automation scores or projected savings.
