OCE.7:1 - Problem Frame

Products and services are produced, operated, supported, assured, and changed through organizations. Communication, deployment, test, approval, provider, evidence, and capability-home structures can make some product or service architectures easier to sustain. Technical dependencies can in turn create coordination and specialization pressure in the organization.

Correspondence can help without becoming one-to-one mirroring. Independent safety acceptance, scarce specialist homes, legal entities, platform services, regional operations, provider contracts, and continuing service can justify deliberate non-isomorphism. The task is to decide both sides with their gains, losses, authorities, and evolution windows visible.
