SYSE.24:4.1 - Name one result and one decision

Write one sentence containing these five elements:

  • the result being sought and its actual kind;
  • the receiving use and the Systems whose use or condition matters;
  • the configuration, operating conditions, horizon, and acceptance claims;
  • the decision-making Agent and the decision it is authorized to make; and
  • the latest useful date for that decision.

If the sentence alternates among a product, access, performed Work, capability, and an evidence episteme, the decision still has several subjects. Split it or select the one result that changes the next commitment. If the project system-of-interest, its actual or intended status, or its intended use remains unclear, return to A.15.6, SYSE.1, SYSE.16, and SYSE.2.

The acceptance basis must be usable before arrangement generation. It can include several characteristics and thresholds; it need not reduce them to one score. State protected conditions and affected-System consequences that no arrangement may hide.
