Frame the need
Start with the problem, not the solution.
Identify who experiences the need, why it matters, and how the wider system works. Capture stakeholder needs, operating context, constraints and a measurable definition of success.
Team actions
- Write a one-paragraph problem statement
- Map stakeholders, inputs/outputs and system boundaries
- Define measurable success criteria and constraints
Evidence to produce
One-page project brief + first system map
