EAM.15:1 - Problem frame

Use this pattern when the reusable way of making asset decisions no longer answers current questions, or when a new technique could improve it. A condition ranking fails a coupled investment choice, a forecasting model no longer fits demand, or a new optimizer promises improvement without accounting for its data and interpretation burden.

Begin with the working question and the reusable operation that may need change. Return an adequate existing Method, a supported change or an explicitly qualified candidate. A new standard edition or tool release alone is not a reason to replace the repertoire.
