F Open Collaboration and Continued Evolution

Place changes in the appropriate layer and preserve data, rules and workflows as reusable assets. Manufacturers, consultants and software partners collaborate through shared interfaces.

Preparation and Outcomes

Bring the decision task from A1, or use this topic's color-grouping and workshop-transfer examples. B1's data mapping helps with the discussion of template reuse.

This topic focuses on responsibilities and design choices, without requiring execution. Produce a change-impact table, template reuse notes and a handoff table that another participant can act on.

1. Locate the Layer That Should Handle a Change
2. Preserve Experience in Data Assets and Industry Templates
3. Define Roles for Manufacturers, Consultants and Software Partners

Read the three lessons in order. Attempt each exercise before checking the suggested answer, and use the worksheets to record conditions, results and open questions.
