Observed patterns
The symptoms change names. The structure keeps repeating itself.
These pages preserve the operating patterns that led to IVA without turning the research portal into another service site.
Common manifestations.
Approval bottlenecks
A decision must climb to people who can reject it but cannot repair or implement it.
Slow decision rights
The answer is known near the work while legitimate authority sits farther away.
Broken handoffs
Context disappears between functions and gets rebuilt through repeated correction.
Unclear roles
Ownership, approval, execution, and cleanup overlap until work is duplicated or abandoned.
Stalled strategy
The plan preserves priorities but does not alter authority, capacity, funding, measures, or review routines.
Structural overload
The same people carry formal responsibility, informal repair, reporting, and institutional memory until the lane fails.
Patterns are evidence, not automatic diagnoses.
A repeated symptom can indicate an architectural problem, but IVA recognition still requires documentation, persistence, materiality, cross-functional impact, and verifiability. The purpose of the pattern library is to make structural questions visible enough to investigate.
When the pattern is live, move to the commercial interface.
Decision Readiness
Score the decision or choose the smallest paid intervention that can move it.
