OPS.14:4.5 - Return the choice, trade-off or exact missing result

Present the feasible alternatives with the consequential service, resource, human, quality and financial differences. State the assumptions that could reverse the comparison and the observation or decision that would resolve them.

If one alternative is better on the receiving decision’s criteria, recommend it with that basis. If earlier service costs more, make the price of that service visible to the authorized decision maker. Preserve mandatory conditions before comparing preferences.

The result can be a short operating account rather than a permanent dashboard. Use OPS.15 when the source events or definitions need repair. After action, compare actual flows and operating results with the assumptions needed for continuation; reopen the affected method or service decision if they change.
