Shape the programme
Together, we agree the programme’s scope: what it includes and what it does not. Before work begins, we set a clear way to resolve disagreements between teams.

COURSE 09 - DELIVERY AND IMPROVEMENT
AI Enablement
Artificial Intelligence Enablement across Transport Change
AI tools can analyse information and generate text. This course gives your team a governed, repeatable way to use them for analysis, drafting and assurance.

A practical approach to AI enablement.
Organise the work
We split the work into clear streams and name an owner for each one. We agree who makes each decision and where it goes if people cannot agree, so decisions do not stall.
Test the plan
We build an action list and map the dependencies between tasks. This identifies the critical path: the sequence of tasks that determines the earliest realistic finish date. We then check whether your Authority and the bus Operators are ready for the first day of service.
Check and resource
We check that the people and funding the work needs are available. We agree how you will track progress and set out the next steps to take back to your sponsor.
What you leave with
Four artefacts to help you progress the work after the course.
Your Programme Plan: a clear outline of the programme, including workstreams, decision points, named owners and checks at key stages.
A Written Record of Your Reasoning: why you structured the programme this way and the alternatives you considered.
An Action List: the work to keep, change, add or remove.
A Guided Programme Template: a ready-made structure with prompts to help you complete the plan after the day.

BUILD THE COURSES AROUND YOUR PLAN
How the ten courses fit your programme.
Course 3 completes the Strategic Foundation group. Course 1 helps your Authority set its direction, and Course 2 helps you plan the delivery programme. Course 3 then defines how your Authority will run its services and who will deliver them. You can use it before you choose a delivery route. It is relevant to a newly formed Combined Authority, and to an Authority preparing to franchise, work through an Enhanced Partnership or take a BSIP-led approach. The later courses on network, ticketing, customers, systems and contracts build on the model you establish here.
