Putting it into practice

In short: every use follows the same steps. The stakes and scale set how much evidence you need.

Keep the approach modular so units and teams can adopt pieces without waiting for a full campus system.

Before broad institutionalization, test the framework against contrasting use cases. The use case inventory has 500 of them, each evaluated the same way.

Worked examples

Six contrasting use cases, each taken from hypothesis to decision. Figures are illustrative. For 500 more, search the use case inventory.
