Adoption roadmap
A practical Pilot → Scale → Optimize path for rolling AI out across software development.
Pilot
Weeks 1–4Prove AI adds value in software development with one team, before any wider rollout.
- Select a single team or workflow and stand up GitHub Copilot for that team only.
- Baseline current cycle time, cost, and quality for the workflow being changed.
- Write a one-page usage policy: what the tool may touch, and what stays human-only.
Human-review gate
Every AI-generated output is reviewed by a human before it ships or is acted on — no exceptions during the pilot.
Success metric
Pilot team reports a measurable time or quality improvement, with zero unreviewed AI output reaching a customer, filing, or financial system.
