CGOV.15:4.2 - Identify what would change

Compare the proposed way with the existing operations.

  • A clearer explanation or another display may leave the method unchanged.
  • A new service or provider may change availability and performance while preserving the operations.
  • Changing when material information is obtained, who examines it, how alternatives are challenged or which condition permits continuation can change the method itself.
  • Changing a participant’s power or a protected right requires the corresponding corporate act.

These possibilities can occur together. For instance, introducing an independent valuation can require a provider, a new preparation step and compliance with an existing conflict rule, while leaving decision power with the board.

Use ME.15, Maintain Method Variants, Provenance, and Reuse, for distinguishing reusable semantic changes from changes to descriptions and support. Preserve a proposed method as proposed while its needed conditions or grounds remain unresolved. Improving its wording does not supply those grounds.
