Checklist Results

#	Criterion	Status	Evidence/Notes
1	ROI/Cost-Benefit analysis is quantitative, or where qualitative, is explicitly justified	Pass	Qualitative; justification paragraph added under Cost–Benefit Assessment (personal project, no revenue or budget).
2	Risks are identified with documented impact and mitigation	Pass	Three risks, each with impact and mitigation.
3	Success criteria are measurable, stating explicit targets	Pass	Five criteria with target and measure.
4	Scope explicitly separates In Scope vs Out of Scope	Pass	Separate subsections.
5	Stakeholders are cross-referenced to Stakeholder Analysis IDs	Pass	S01–S03 used; the table only states interest.
6	Methodology and quality-standard foundation are stated explicitly (Optional)	Pass	SQA/QC framework and ISO/IEC 25010:2023 named.
7	Assumptions and constraints are explicit and distinguished	Pass	Separate sections; target date added to Constraints.
8	Document supports executive decision-making with a clear recommendation	Pass	Recommendation: Proceed, with rationale.

Overall Verdict

Go — all mandatory and optional criteria pass. Reviewer and author are both S01: the project has a single participant, so the framework's author/reviewer separation cannot be met. S01 accepted this deviation when requesting acceptance (2026-10-04).
