E.23.CDI:4.1 - Name the holder and target Work

Keep the holder System, its capability, the target Work family, development intervention, provider Systems, development Work, transfer Work, and evidence separate. A familiar group name does not by itself identify the capability holder.

Candidate holder wordingBoundary for this use
a person or equipped personUse the person or equipped whole only when that System is the bearer of the bounded capability claim.
a team or organizationUse the team or organization only when the whole is admitted as one System for the target Work; member capabilities do not aggregate automatically.
a pair or ensembleUse the pair or ensemble when joint performance is the capability at stake; do not distribute that claim to every member.
an engineering or operating arrangementUse the whole arrangement only when its boundary and relevant conditions are recoverable; tools, people, and providers remain separately identifiable participants.
a populationTreat the population as holder only when that whole independently satisfies the System boundary for this claim. Otherwise keep member capabilities separate, assess their distribution separately, and use C.36 for cultural propagation.
