STR.14:4.4 - Reconcile the bounded commitments with their holders

Return the supported configuration and trade-off to the holders of the relevant decisions. They may alter scope, allocate work, change an authorized sequence, retain the current course or reject the proposal. State the actual decision separately from the recommendation and from conditions that remain pending.

A sum within capacity supports only that arithmetic result under its assumptions. It does not establish financing, participant agreement, capability, permission, value or safety. Obtain the missing professional result when the receiving choice depends on it, rather than requesting every neighbouring discipline by default.

Use OCE for a selected organization-capability change and OPS for actual service operation. Use the applicable human-capability and platform or systems-engineering contribution when those are the missing conditions. The practitioners responsible for those contributions retain their own work and authority.

If no feasible authorized configuration exists, name the conflict and its effect on the strategic choice. Deferral or a viable rival can be preferable to launching incomplete work.
