Decision · Case Brief
ONE DECISION. DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES.
FOR CASE BUILDERS
Structure your thinking.
FOR FINANCE
Inspect the assumptions.
FOR APPROVERS
See what you’re deciding.
START WITH THE RIGHT LEVEL OF RIGOR
Start with a sentence, rough notes, or a researched proposal. Choose the right level of rigor, then let kAI assess what you’ve provided.
When more context is needed, kAI asks targeted questions and tracks its understanding on the Board. You review and confirm that understanding before continuing to build the Decision.
Begin with a brief idea or detailed supporting material. Select the right level of rigor.
Follow kAI’s understanding on the Board
The Board makes kAI’s understanding visible as the conversation develops. Select the image to explore the detail.
You confirm kAI’s understanding before building the Decision together.
An initial idea becomes a reviewed Decision frame, not an unsupervised AI draft.
CONNECTED COMPONENTS
Work with kAI to define the problem, compare approaches, set outcomes, and develop the financial reasoning.
kAI can challenge assumptions, suggest alternatives, and flag missing evidence. The components stay connected, inspectable, and editable as your thinking evolves.
PROBLEM
Capture what needs solving
Make the issue, its causes, and the current pain visible before jumping to a recommendation.
APPROACH
Compare credible options
Keep alternatives visible alongside the preferred approach so the recommendation has context.
OUTCOMES
Define what success means
Turn vague benefits into measurable outcomes that can later be tracked.
The Decision stays decomposed into parts that can be challenged, improved, and reused.
ANALYTICS AND FINANCIAL EVIDENCE
Inspect ROI, payback, the value profile, and cost and benefit breakdowns in the context of the Decision they support.
Attention Items flag estimates, assumptions, and missing validation so reviewers can see what still needs checking.
Inspect the return and payback in context
Numbers that need checking should look like numbers that need checking.
kAI estimates and incomplete data never masquerade as certainty. The workflow is stronger when people can see what's reliable, what's directional, and what still needs work before approval.
Financial insight stays linked to the Decision instead of being buried in a separate spreadsheet.
THE CASE BRIEF
The Case Brief brings together the recommendation, rationale, financial picture, expected outcomes, and key risks.
Leaders get a concise view of what’s proposed and why, with the underlying evidence available when they want to examine the detail.
Readable in the app, with the underlying structure still connected.
Share the Decision Brief as a PDF for review outside KangaROI.
All the work turns into a recommendation that leaders can review without losing traceability.
APPROVAL PACKAGE
The Approval Package preserves the proposal, alternatives, financials, risks, and roles as submitted.
Keep a record of what approvers were asked to consider and the reasoning behind the recommendation, so future teams can understand and revisit the decision.
“As submitted” identifies the preserved proposal reviewers were asked to consider.
Governance and accountability stay attached to the same record.
The approval history preserves the reasoning behind the decision, not just the outcome.
