What Is an SOP?

A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is a documented process that captures a workflow that consistently produces useful results.

SOPs help:

• Reduce guesswork • Improve consistency • Train others • Save time • Create repeatable systems

A workflow becomes an SOP after it has been tested and proven to work.

The goal is not documentation for documentation's sake.

The goal is creating systems that can be reused and improved over time.

Build Your Own SOP

Use the SOP Builder Prompt to convert your own working workflows into repeatable SOPs.

Remember:

A workflow should reach the Working stage before becoming an SOP.

Document what works.

Improve what doesn't.
