How to use it
Step 1: Naming
Record the part that changes the decision, then attach an owner and a date to anything that still needs evidence.
Step 2: UTMs
Run the resource against one real case. A live example usually exposes a missing field or vague definition faster than another planning meeting.
Step 3: Events
Start by writing the current state without trying to improve it. That keeps the review anchored to what actually happens today.
Step 4: Attribution
Start by writing the current state without trying to improve it. That keeps the review anchored to what actually happens today.
Step 5: Reporting
Start by writing the current state without trying to improve it. That keeps the review anchored to what actually happens today.
