SYSE.14:9 - Consequences

Release speed and scrutiny can vary with consequence without losing accountability. Implementation, operation, maintenance, and assurance receive a decision that names configuration, effectivity, evidence, authority, and next Work. Mixed physical and software changes can share one connected case while retaining their own Work cadences and evidence.

Consequential cases cost additional impact recovery, evidence maintenance, and authority checks. Some decisions must remain narrowed or blocked. Specialist rules—for example, safety, legal, cybersecurity, medical, aviation, financial, commercial, or organizational rules—remain with their own patterns and application DPFs.
