APPLICATIONS

Start with the operational problem.

Examine work that requires verified evidence, a clear picture of the situation, or a careful look at options, and the environments it is deployed in.

01 / APPLICATION

What changed, and what does it affect?

HARBINGER — Verify evidence against source and timing. Surface what changed against source and timing.

It connects differences in observations and reports to related subjects and plans, retaining the evidence and unknowns that require review.

Connected records for evidence and change

02 / APPLICATION

What does the situation look like?

PÓLYA — One picture from verified evidence. Put corroboration, conflict, and gaps on one screen.

It places reports and observations about the same subject and time on one screen.

Verified evidence woven into a single picture of the situation

03 / APPLICATION

Which option meets the objectives and constraints?

RAIFFA — Support the decision. Do not make it. Lay options and assumptions side by side so people can decide.

It places required resources and time, expected effects and trade-offs, and changed assumptions side by side.

Options laid side by side against the same objectives and constraints

04 / APPLICATION

Into which environments, and within which boundaries, are the products deployed?

EOS — Deploy and update within each security boundary.

Each deployment environment keeps its own security boundary.

EOS concept: the three products run on EOS, deployed within each environment’s security boundary

Scope — Example problem frames. Not named deployments.
