A better question

Find out which kind.
A rules constraint, a document constraint and a provider constraint call for different next steps.
Three different constraints.
Do not assume a different provider fixes a testing issue, or that a passing illustration overrides the governing plan.
R
The rules
A proposed allocation may not satisfy the applicable requirements.
D
The document
The design may need different plan provisions or an amendment.
P
The provider
The provider may limit the designs its service model supports.
Conversation guide
Ask for the reason, not just the answer.
| Ask | What the answer helps establish |
|---|---|
| Which requirement does the proposed allocation fail? | Whether the issue is a substantive rule or test. |
| Which plan provision prevents it? | Whether a document review or amendment analysis is needed. |
| Is this a service or software limitation? | Whether the provider supports the workflow, even if a design could otherwise be permissible. |
| Who would validate and implement a different design? | Whether the responsibilities are clear before any contribution is funded. |
