The Delegation Ledger

Omar Farooq · CEO, Vertex Distribution — everything delegated, nothing tracked

Omar delegates all day — a price check to procurement, a policy draft to HR, a callback to sales — and by Friday he’s the only person who remembers half of it. Chasing feels petty; forgetting costs more.

The Delegation Ledger is a personal who-owes-me-what tracker on his own subscription: he tells it what he handed off, it keeps the list and drafts the polite Friday nudges.

The Delegation Ledger

Claude Project · runs on Omar’s own subscription

What’s outstanding?

Seven open. The oldest three: Asif — FY27 credit-policy draft (12 days, nudged once) · Procurement — fleet quote comparison (9 days, escalated to Monday’s agenda) · Salman at the clearing agency — HS-code opinion (6 days, external, gentle nudge drafted). Want the three nudges to send now? They’re written to sound like you on a good day.

What we’d build

What arrives: one running ledger of everything you’ve handed off — who, what, since when — with nudges drafted in your voice.
When: capture takes one line at delegation time; the ledger reviews every Friday.
Your part: you send the nudges — it just makes remembering free.

The essentials

This runs on your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription. Nothing hosted by us — we set it up and show you the one-line capture habit.

Setup time: About a week
Honest note: It only knows what you tell it — delegate in the hallway and forget to log it, and the ledger forgets with you.
