OPS.11.1:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them
| Observed or text-invited mistake | Consequence | Repair |
| Give each departmental box its own copy of a shared worker | Individually feasible plans compete for the same hours. | Reconcile resource references and impose the common occupancy constraint. |
| Sum or average local completions to obtain delivery | The result ignores joins and the final required contribution. | Derive the receiving completion event and its relation to local events. |
| Preserve a fixed service delay after changing its load | The comparison suppresses the congestion it may cause. | Reopen that service response under the proposed conditions. |
| Treat a changed route or a new assignment as proof of organizational redesign | Resource regulation becomes confused with changing who may promise or accept a result. | Compare the product, resource, commitment and authority relations separately, then obtain the result needed for each actual change. |
| Expand every box before comparing an alternative | Modeling consumes resources without improving the decision. | Refine the part whose omitted distinction can reverse the comparison. |
