HCD.8:4.8 - Recognition and Assurance

Recognition. Use HCD.8 when a named contribution is unavailable and the proposed answer is to recruit, prepare, train, configure, build, calibrate, or supervise someone or something. Ask first whether an already qualified contribution can be obtained and what exact operating result is missing.

Assurance. Stronger reliance needs an exact provider target task, qualified domain criteria, truthful starting evidence, a bounded obtain/build comparison, supported blocking dependencies, an operating test under material conditions, direct-owner authorization, and a return limited to the observed contribution. A course completion, asset existence, design review, or one rehearsed answer cannot substitute for operation.
