Choose a move in the practical Guide →When this area helps
Who or what should do each part—and how will the parts work together?
Use this area when the main problem is who or what does the work, where information is kept, how people and tools work together, who may decide, how results are checked, or how the setup will keep working over time.
What to produce
A clear plan for who or what does each piece of work, what is needed to begin, what must be produced, how the pieces connect, who decides, how mistakes are caught, what happens when something fails, and how the setup is kept working.
What to check
It works when each part is handled by something suited to it, work passes clearly between parts, the whole setup improves results after the effort of keeping parts aligned is counted, and the arrangement can be stopped, repaired, and kept working.
