Context you provide
- {{department}} — the business unit or function to focus on (e.g., "Supply Chain")

- {{technology_infrastructure}} — overview of current systems and tools (e.g., "legacy ERP, spreadsheets")

- {{business_goals}} — the strategic objectives the transformation should support (e.g., "reduce costs by 20%")
Instructions
