CB.5:3 - Forces

ForceDecision it changes
Broad willingness and specific competenceMany people may want to help; a particular contribution needs relevant knowledge, access and effort.
Contribution and receiving authorityParticipants can offer valuable material while the product, employer or equipment owner retains the relevant decision.
Quick help and reusable materialA response fitted to one case can be useful immediately; reuse needs its conditions and a maintained source.
Voluntary contribution and dependable commitmentsPeer help can remain optional; a service promise requires a provision arrangement able to meet it.
Learning from feedback and unpaid repair burdenA returned reason can improve the contribution; repeated revisions consume real time and need renewed agreement.
