OPS.21:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension in the work |
| Direction and local knowledge | A shared purpose needs compatible contributions, while each team sees conditions that a corporate ratio omits. |
| Ambition and credible action | A demanding aim can expose an improvement opportunity; an unsupported demand can induce concealment or unsafe shortcuts. |
| Comparability and unlike work | A common measure can aid learning while differences in demand, equipment, obligations or starting conditions defeat a ranking. |
| Visibility and burden | More observations can reveal a neglected consequence, but collecting them consumes operating capacity. |
| Local recognition and joint results | A team can improve its score by moving work, delay or cost to another participant. |
| Stability and revision | A retained aim guides effort; changed needs can make it irrelevant even when its number remains attainable. |
