production adoption and demonstrable outcome improvement — use outcome data as the primary signal for where to focus next**Optimisation and Continuous Improvement*** Define baseline metrics at engagement start and iterate relentlessly* Evaluate solution performance against KPIs and refine designs based on data-driven insights, changing direction quickly when the data signals it* Collaborate
