OCE.Preface:10 - Questions before relying on a combined result

For the current use, ask:

• Which organization, contribution and changed relation does this result concern, and what can the receiving participant now do?
• Which claims describe possibilities, effective relations, performed work or demonstrated capability, and what supports the distinction?
• Do the necessary contributions fit together under the actual time, support, authority and protection conditions?
• Which observations include benefits, displaced burden, affected participants and material uncertainty? Does the proposed reliance need stronger evidence?
• Which result still has to come from another practice, and which action depends on it?
• What changed condition would reopen this conclusion while leaving the other results usable?

Use the selected bodies’ checklists for their specific questions. Recognition of an OCE difficulty needs less than assurance of an organization capability, authorized revision or causal effect; the claimed result determines the further evidence.
