The useful version of a technology decision is the one that survives contact with the people, systems, sites, and constraints that have to carry it.
Start with the operating situation. Name what changes for the customer, the operator, the technical evaluator, the OEM team, and the person who inherits the system after handover. Then choose the smallest architecture that can carry the outcome responsibly.
Questions worth taking forward
- What does success look like at the point of use?
- Which dependency will be hardest to change later?
- Which assumptions need evidence before the design becomes a BoM?
- Who accepts the system, and what do they need to operate it?
