SYSE.1:4.1 - State the current project decision

Begin with the project whose coordination is current. State:

  1. what change or later use this project is meant to enable;
  2. which plan or decision needs a shared project-system designation now; and
  3. which subject is presently proposed as the System to be changed or brought about.

Keep related projects separate. A manufacturer’s planning-improvement project, a software vendor’s product project, and an integration provider’s deployment project may use the same software and evidence without making the same project-system choice. A programme or portfolio may coordinate shared matters—for example, priority, resources, investment, risk, or evidence—without thereby becoming a composite acting System.
