Built for cross-functional, AI-era work

Use cases for complex, cross-team work

C2O gives you a repeatable way to run complex, cross-team work: platform enablement, reliability recovery, regulatory change, product growth, and AI automation.

Each use case is a starter configuration: a concrete outcome, the signals that matter, decision-rights guidance, and a small stack of worksheets and playbooks to get moving.

Under the hood, every scenario uses the same engine: lifecycle phases (Discover, Decide, Build, Run, Adopt) and verb-based roles (Drive, Contribute, Enable, Advise, Inform). That's how C2O makes work outcome-driven instead of task-driven.

Use case

Internal Platform Enablement

Use C2O to move teams onto paved paths without becoming the bottleneck: clearer SLO policy, healthier on-call, and faster adoption of shared CI/CD and observability.

Best for Platform Lead / Head of Platform

96% Error-budget policy compliance

Metric: Error budget burn

35% Reduction in alert noise

Metric: Alert actionability rate

Use case

Reliability Recovery After Incidents

Use C2O to recover from incident spikes and error-budget burn by turning ad-hoc incident decisions into explicit guardrails, thresholds, and escalation rules across the lifecycle.

Best for Ops / Reliability Lead

22% → 7% Error-budget burn brought back into policy

Metric: Error budget burn

9 → 3 days Decision latency on incident actions

Metric: Decision latency

Use case

Regulatory & Compliance Change

Use C2O to navigate regulatory change with decision ladders, minimal evidence packets, and clear escalation triggers so you hit audit dates without freezing delivery.

Best for Compliance / Risk Owner

0 Critical audit findings

Metric: Incident rate (audit findings)

3 → 1 Escalations per month

Metric: Incident rate

Use case

Product Growth: B2B Onboarding

Use C2O to cut time-to-first-value and raise activation by aligning product, design, eng, and success around one onboarding outcome and shared decision rules.
