How It Works

How a CEA project decision moves from source material to an approved record.

This page explains who contributes, who reviews and who retains authority as the same six-step Platform workflow moves forward.

Shared sequence

The same six steps as the Platform.

01

Establish the project baseline

Define the decision objective, authorised material, constraints, owners and unresolved questions.

02

Capture source claims

Retain the statement, source location, conditions, units and evidence status.

03

Map requirements and alternatives

Relate project requirements to supplier, configuration and operating alternatives.

04

Build design cases

Apply approved assumptions and reproducible calculations to explicit alternatives.

05

Review uncertainty and dependencies

Record evidence gaps, sensitivities, exceptions and the roles required to resolve them.

06

Record and carry forward the decision

Preserve the rationale, review state, conditions and downstream project requirements.

Responsibility at each stage

The workflow records responsibility; it does not transfer authority between parties.

Organisation or project owner

Owns the decision objective, authorised project material, commercial priorities, final organisational acceptance and designation of responsible reviewers.

Crop Urbanis

May contribute project and agronomic framing, evidence structuring, comparison and design-case preparation, review coordination and decision-record preparation where included in the agreed scope.

External specialists and suppliers

Own engineering confirmation, supplier warranties and claims, regulatory or safety review, contractual commitments, installation and commissioning responsibilities within their scope.

Platform

Performs structured recording, source linking, requirements mapping, comparison support, reproducible calculations, review-state recording and decision continuity where implemented.

Authority remains with the responsible party.

The Platform structures evidence and decision records. Organisations, suppliers and relevant professionals retain authority and responsibility within their own technical, commercial, legal and regulated scopes.

Define the decision before defining the engagement.

Share high-level project context first; detailed material follows only through an agreed route.
