| Criterion |  Operations Visual Management |  Engineering Failure Scenario Analysis |  Architecture LASR (Lightweight Approach for Software Reviews) |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | With high tempo and many parallel topics, the method makes status, deviations, and priorities visible at a glance. It reduces search effort and prevents what matters from getting lost in daily work. | In critical processes, it is not enough to plan only for the normal case. Failure Scenario Analysis looks at the path into failure and shows which failures, chains, and control gaps cause the most damage. | LASR helps development teams identify where their software falls short of important quality goals and which improvements to consider. A small group with existing system knowledge can make an initial assessment and investigate open questions in more detail. |
Complexitydifferent | Low | Medium | Medium |
Timedifferent | Ongoing | 1-3 h | 3–4 h for initial assessment; preparation and deeper analysis additional |
Participantsdifferent | 1-20 | 3-8 | 1 or a small team; particularly suitable for 3–4 people |
