Criterion	Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs)	Operations ABC Analysis	Decision Making Eisenhower Matrix	Business Strategy 5-Minuten VC-Check
Purposedifferent	ARID examines how well developers can work with a technical design. It focuses on a part of the system that can still be revised, between the architecture overview and the detailed specification.	With many similar objects of differing economic significance, the method prioritizes effort by effect. It separates what needs regular steering from what rarely needs attention.	It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped.	The 5-Minute VC Check clarifies opportunities and strategic options at the earliest idea stage. It compares problem quality, customer willingness to pay, alternatives, differentiation, and market potential, and captures the result as a VC-check note, go/sharpen/park decision, and risk list.
