Options appraisal / trade study.
Which option wins under transparent criteria, and how sensitive is that conclusion?
The public route names the decision boundary. The buyer brings the subject and clock.
This route usually becomes Market Entry Evidence Pack.
It turns a broad defence problem into a named decision with a visible evidence boundary, open questions and a clear next action.
The language a buyer may arrive with.
- Which options should the Field Army HQ planning cell shortlist for force generation and readiness, and what evidence would make the ranking change?
- Which options should the Corps/division G5/G7 staff shortlist for campaign planning and force employment, and what evidence would make the ranking change?
- Which options should the Brigade headquarters ops/plans staff shortlist for brigade combat effectiveness, and what evidence would make the ranking change?
- Which options should the Battalion command team shortlist for battalion readiness, and what evidence would make the ranking change?
- Which options should the Company commander / squadron leader shortlist for sub-unit performance, and what evidence would make the ranking change?

- Which options should the Infantry capability cell shortlist for close combat lethality, and what evidence would make the ranking change?
