C.32.MWA.PP:4.4 - Recover the incumbent and the work hidden by the proposal

Describe the current way at the grain needed for this decision. Use an actual representative occurrence where available; for a new use, begin with a prospective case and recover the existing means on which it would rely. Include competent informal help when it is actually available, and its burden. An empty baseline makes any new service look valuable; an idealized baseline makes needed support look unnecessary.

Follow one consequence into each receiving whole that could reverse the choice. An expert’s review can support a learner’s progress, product assurance and the expert’s own professional practice at once. A proposed use of that hour can therefore change several contributions. It does not create three independently available hours.

Recover demands that the proposal might hide:

• preparation, subject interpretation and development of the means;
• the performer’s own work, learning, recovery and contribution to others;
• access, intake, coordination, exception response and maintenance;
• local participation, explanation, disagreement and authorization;
• continuing production or service during the change.

Ask the people or agents who supply and receive the contributions which condition could make the proposed arrangement fail. Their knowledge can change a candidate without giving every participant identical decision rights. Keep unknown voices and evidence material to the choice visible; do not treat a senior sponsor’s description as the whole work.

Locate the actual difficulty. If a result is late, determine whether it waits for a scarce judgement, missing input, permission, incompatible priority or an unnecessary handover. These explanations imply different architecture changes. Do not infer that the person lacks mastery from an unusable result whose cause remains unknown.

For human capability, qualify the actual task and permitted help; obtain a separately qualified acquisition or transfer result only when the arrangement needs that capability change or new use. For AI, qualify the relevant configuration, tools, data, permissions and evaluation conditions. For an organizational capability, identify how the contributions become obtainable together and remain available beyond one exceptional performer. Individual competence alone supplies none of the missing interfaces or commitments.
