SYSE.4:4.7 - Apply the result to the smallest affected answer

The practitioner uses the changed reliance to reassess only the smallest earlier answer to which it applies:

  • reassess SYSE.1 when evidence changes the selected project referent, project reason, or boundary;
  • reassess SYSE.2 when observed participation, conditions, effects, benefit, or harm change the linked use or system concept;
  • reassess C.30, C.32, or the applicable architecture decision when criteria, bearers, structures, or trade-offs must change;
  • reassess SYSE.3 when capability, integration, configuration, production, access, or another realization branch fails;
  • use the specialist practice when its safety, security, legal, ethical, financial, certification, acceptance, permission, or release question remains open.

Stop when the account makes the evidence use, its limits, changed reliance, and affected answer clear. Reassess a wider answer only when the narrower answer also fails. The result can become available at any time. The stated relations are claim-dependency and revision relations; they impose no lifecycle stage or prescribed Work order.
