OPS.2:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them

Anti-patternRepair
“Everything is a process.”Identify changing subjects and ask whether discretionary or constrained case continuation is needed.
“Every initiative is a project.”Separate time-bounded change commitments from recurring and continuing operation.
“Case management means no process.”Retain reusable Methods and recurring subwork while letting subject state govern permissible next Work.
“Put all work in one queue.”Name eligibility, service/resource relation, commitment effects, and the subjects that must remain separate.
“Use one integrated model.”Preserve non-isomorphic views and relate only the claims the decision consumes.
“The loop proves control.”Recover actual relations and use direct rate, dynamics, evidence, safety, and assurance patterns.
