The operating question
Visibility is not more status updates. It is one place that answers what state an order is in and who acts next.
What to decide, in order
- Order state The handful of states that trigger an action, shown consistently.
- Exceptions Each exception carries an owner and a next step.
- Rollout Piloted with existing clients before general release.

Where the handoff usually breaks

What good looks like
A client checks one screen and knows whether to wait, act, or escalate.
