| Criterion |  Agile WSJF |  Architecture LASR (Lightweight Approach for Software Reviews) |  Operations Standard Work Analysis |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When many tasks compete for the same capacity, it orders work by economic impact. It makes time lost, benefit, and effort comparable together. | 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. | When the same task is done differently depending on the person, the method exposes the reliable core. It creates comparability without unnecessarily choking off needed latitude. |
Complexitydifferent | High | Medium | Medium |
Timedifferent | 45-90 min | 3–4 h for initial assessment; preparation and deeper analysis additional | 1-3 h |
Participantsdifferent | 3-10 | 1 or a small team; particularly suitable for 3–4 people | 2-6 |
Formatdifferent | Workshop | Workshop + async | Workshop |
Outputdifferent | Ranked Backlog, Cost-of-Delay Assumptions | Lean Mission Statement describing the software’s purpose, Prioritized quality goals and evaluation criteria, Risks and estimated gaps against quality goals, More closely examined findings and open checks | Standard Work Sheet, Deviation List, Improved Standard, Training Needs |
