Delivery management - Concept
Constraint
A limit the work has to operate within, such as time, budget, technology or rules
What's it for?
Makes clear the limits a plan or solution has to work within.
For example…
The system must stay on the approved cloud region and go live before the financial year ends—two constraints guiding design choices
A project must use the company's existing identity platform and launch before a regulatory deadline; both are constraints on the solution
Think of it like…
Cooking for guests with a fixed oven size and dinner at seven: creativity still exists, inside real limits
