Lesson 11 / 25

Integration patterns

Apply foundations 3 in Cost & Capacity Estimation.

Understand Integration patterns

In Cost & Capacity Estimation, use foundations 3 to connect the problem, constraints, and measurable outcome before selecting an approach.

Practise the workflow

Start small, verify one result, and record what the evidence changes.

A four-stage learning workflow.
Figure 3.1 — Understand, act, verify, improve.

A useful comparison

Think of this as a route plan: each step should lead to a checked destination.

Check your reasoning.

Quick check: What should come before choosing an approach?

  • A clear goal and constraints.
  • An unverified copy.
  • No measurement.
Answer

A clear goal and constraints. — Evidence makes a decision reviewable.
