Last responsible moment

Lean software development

LSD의 원칙 중 하나인 Decide as late as possible의 도구.

“

The moment at which failing to make a decision eliminates an important alternative. If commitments are delayed beyond the last responsible moment, then decisions are made by default, which is generally not a good approach to making decisions. —p57, Chapter 3, Lean software development (book)

Some tactics:

“

• Share partially complete design information
• Organize for direct, worker-to-worker collaboration
• Develop a sense of how to absorb changes
• Develop a sense of what is critically important in the domain
• Develop a sense of when decisions must be made
• Develop a quick response capability
