Mode two: the contract-provisioning queue

Make the call in this situation: "In the automated provisioning queue, the LLM-extracted seat count from the signed order form doesn't match the seat count in Salesforce. What does the system do, and why?" Explain what supports it.

Mode two: the contract-provisioning queueclosed-won to provisioned, on a cron

Enterprise provisioning used to be fully manual. Someone ran a daily closed-won report from Salesforce, hand-copied data between spreadsheets, downloaded each order form, validated it against Salesforce, then Slacked "ready to provision." It cost one to three hours a day, it was error-prone, and it did not survive 10x growth. Deal volume went from about 100 a month to 700-800 a month. The team replaced the whole thing with a built application, absorbing that roughly 8x jump in volume without adding a single person.
