Make the whole proposed arrangement visible

STR.8 connects the service contribution to the actual service, platform, learning and support conditions. STR.10 and STR.14 compare the simultaneous configuration for the first shared month. That month includes the four preparation days now proposed for authorization.

The team has eighty engineer-days. Current service needs fifty-two, with another eight protected for incident recovery. The initial proposal adds sixteen for trial preparation and use, eight for platform preparation and six for learning/support: ninety in total.

A smaller proposal uses eight days for bounded preparation and, only when separately permitted, initial use and interpretation; six for the platform subset; and four for targeted learning and support. With service and reserve, the total is seventy-eight. The remaining two days are unallocated, not additional guaranteed recovery capacity.

Two of the six platform days preserve device-compatible interfaces and maintenance instructions, leaving four for the service-specific subset. This postpones a two-day service-diagnostic enhancement. Those fallback days are already inside the seventy-eight and are different from both the two unallocated days and the four-day device improvement sacrificed for preparation now. The maintained fallback keeps a device-only return possible through the first staged decision; longer retention needs its own cost and capability assessment.

This smaller configuration is a candidate under the workload assumptions, not demonstrated capability. A critical-day collision or unavailable skill can still defeat it. If the reduced scope cannot supply a complete service contribution and exception return, it is an inadequate fragment, not a feasible successful service.

OCE.9 can guide the selected organization-capability increment. When realization is selected, the platform provider must supply the needed tool and access; the learning participants and provider must obtain the appropriate HCD result; the service owner must protect the operating limit. These required contributions remain separate. Customer time, vendor charges, financing and affected-party consequences also require their own applicable treatment: a person-day total is not the whole economic comparison.
