SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Create a structured decision workflow for design-heavy repositories. Use when the user needs to compare options with tradeoff analysis, assign a decision owner, and track consequences. Produces a DW-NNN document with options, pros, cons, and tradeoff analysis.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Produces a standardized DW-NNN decision document that documents options, tradeoffs, owners, and consequences.
  • Encourages traceability by linking decisions to project context, related docs, and stakeholders.
  • Supports a recommended workflow for drafting, reviewing, and updating decisions.

Quick Start

Describe the decision topic to initiate a DW-NNN draft and begin a review workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I document design decisions with tradeoff analysis for multiple stakeholders?

Document design decisions by generating a standardized DW-NNN record that captures context, options, tradeoff analysis, owners, and consequences to ensure traceability across stakeholders. This enforces a fixed structure to track decisions over time.

What is the best way to track project management decisions over time?

Track project management decisions by assigning a unique ID and drafting a DW-NNN document that links related documents, stakeholders, and rationale. This creates a structured workflow for reviewing and updating governance decisions.

How do I start a decision workflow for a design-heavy project?

Start a decision workflow by describing the decision topic to initiate a DW-NNN draft. This begins a structured review process where you compare options, assign an owner, and document consequences.

Can I use structured decision documents for stakeholder governance?

Yes, you can use structured decision documents for stakeholder governance by enforcing a fixed format that includes Status, Context, Options, Tradeoff Analysis, Decision, Owner, Rationale, Consequences, and Open Questions to maintain alignment.

Does this decision tracking workflow require a unique ID generation process?

Yes, the decision tracking workflow requires a unique ID generation workflow to produce DW-NNN documents, ensuring every design decision is distinct, traceable, and linked to its specific project context over time.

When should I not use a standardized decision document workflow?

You should avoid a standardized decision document workflow for projects that are not design-heavy or lack multiple stakeholders, as the overhead of generating DW-NNN documents with tradeoff analysis outweighs the governance benefits in simple contexts.
