A.15.2:7d - SoTA Alignment
| Source tradition and status, qualified 2026-08-26 | Local invariant adopted | Shortcut rejected |
|---|---|---|
| ISO 21502:2020 project-management guidance and PMBOK Guide Eighth Edition (2025), used as current planning-practice inputs | A plan is an intended-work coordination episteme: horizon, selected delivery approach or Method family, baseline, dependencies, resource expectations, and acceptance targets are declared before performed Work and compared with performed values after Work occurs. | Treating a schedule, ticket, or baseline as evidence that the Work already occurred. |
| ISO 55000:2024 asset-management practice | Asset reservations, maintenance windows, lifecycle objectives, risk, and value expectations belong in planning until A.15.1 identifies the performed Work and the applicable change and resource-use predicates are satisfied. | Treating planned asset availability or reserved capacity as actual asset intervention or actual resource consumption. |
| ISO 9001:2015 with Amendment 1:2024 remains the published edition; Edition 6 is under publication and scheduled for September 2026 | Planned quality objectives, acceptance targets, change notes, and performance evaluation stay replayable so variance can drive improvement. The unpublished replacement is a refresh trigger, not yet a basis for silently changing the distinctions between plans and performed Work. | Editing the plan after the fact so that quality, cost, or schedule variance disappears, or treating a forthcoming edition as already applicable. |
| Mature adaptive-work representation practice such as OMG CMMN 1.1 (2016) | Weakly structured or ad hoc Work can still be compared with identified plan content through a local assertion, or through a direct relation when one is actually defined. | Treating CMMN as current universal practice; forcing every emergency, adaptive, or consolidated Work occurrence into the original plan shape; or minting a universal fulfilment relation from one comparison. |
Qualification and smallest reopen. Recheck the ISO 9001 row when Edition 6 is published and its changed requirements can be compared by value. Reopen only the plan-content, variance, acceptance-target, or worked-use passage whose practitioner action changes. A new notation edition or example with no such effect does not reopen the whole pattern.
