Origin Exploration

So we now have an opportunity that has a quantifiable, or at least a qualified outcome objective. The overwhelming inclination will be to run to a technology or tool, or an asset of some form to solve for it. Pause. It is important to dive deeper and identify the origin of the opportunity. Is there a deeper, hidden, and systemic flaw that has created an opportunity? If the answer is yes and we solve only for a legitimate but superficial opportunity that may only be a symptom, we may be creating fertile ground for future rework and leakage.
