Design Reality Check.

Test the design honestly on three things that can make a clear design still wrong: mission fit, feasibility, and whether the model can actually produce the change.

After the Service Model Map, before you write the program definition.

TestReadRoutes out if
Fit: does this design actually fit the mission, or has it drifted?drifted → mission and strategic direction
Feasibility: can you actually staff and fund this design as mapped?no → the staffing and funding work
Logic: does the model plausibly produce the change, or are the links thin?thin and you are about to commit → design in the measurement now, with impact measurement
Fixed requirements: where licensed or regulated, does it meet them?must adjust → the licensing body or a nonprofit attorney
