It compares strengths, risks, market logic, and courses of action. The result is captured as a VRIO table and strategic actions.When effort needs to be thought of as real working time, it offers a simple common denominator for comparison. It sorts work by value, risk, and delivery ability. The result is captured as Ideal Day Estimates, Assumption Notes, and Capacity Caveats.
