Guidance<br />

Document the rationale <strong>for</strong> choices made and the associated tradeoffs as a<br />

resource <strong>for</strong> later planning and future appraisals.<br />

Practical limitations relating to time, cost, and ef<strong>for</strong>t are clarified and<br />

negotiated in the context of other requirements the sponsor has. The business<br />

context in which the appraisal is conducted drives choices that the appraisal<br />

team leader needs to make. <strong>Appraisal</strong>s should not be conducted in isolation<br />

from other activities relating to process management and improvement. The<br />

needs of related stakeholders, be they acquisition organizations or division<br />

heads managing the Engineering <strong>Process</strong> Group, often place requirements on<br />

the conduct of the appraisal.<br />
