Stop automation chaos before it scales
Your team loves automation. Zapier workflows everywhere. Make.com scenarios proliferating. Power Platform apps multiplying. It's working—until it isn't.
When automation breaks at 2 AM, can you find who built it? When costs spike 300%, do you know why? When security asks for an audit, can you deliver?
The Four-Zone Automation Governance Framework gives you structure before you need it.
What It Covers
Zone A - Execution: How automation actually runs
Triggers, data flows, error handling, performance
Zone B - Control: How changes get deployed safely
Testing, rollbacks, access controls, failure isolation
Zone C - Signal: How you see what's happening
Monitoring, documentation, troubleshooting
Zone D - Stewardship: How it stays maintainable
Ownership, costs, technical debt, team knowledge
Why It Works
- 40+ specific checkpoints - not vague best practices
- Built for real tools - Make.com, Power Platform, Salesforce, custom platforms
- Scales with growth - works for 10 workflows or 1,000
- Proven framework - adapted from enterprise DevOps practices
