Renew, expand or retire from a complete record
Use sustained value, operating risk, full cost and change capacity to make the next bounded decision.
Review the chain
- Bring scope, delivery, operations, value and improvement evidence together.
- Separate sunk cost from the next decision.
Choose the path
- Expand only where the mechanism and guardrails survived testing.
- Correct, pause or retire when continued cost or risk is not justified.
Preserve the exit
- Name records, dependencies, access and ownership to close.
- Keep the decision and unresolved risk after the system changes.
Keep authority explicit
The Improvement Portfolio Studio retains the workflow and complete evidence chain. Its score orders review; it does not authorize a change, prove causality or guarantee a result.
