DELIVERY GATES
What must remain true?
The lifecycle stays understandable
Users can explain outcome, ownership, stage, exception, and next action.
Review EAM 101 →CAPABILITYEvery building block has an owner
Master data, documents, statuses, postings, integrations, controls, and reports are accountable.
Review EAM 202 →PATTERNAlternatives remain intentional
Exceptions map to approved archetypes rather than undocumented one-offs.
Review EAM 303 →Use 101 for process language, 202 for capabilities, 303 for patterns, and 404 for configuration and proof.
