Document the present workflow and desired future outcome to identify gaps, assumptions, constraints, and success measures before committing to a solution. That response is associated with Current-state versus future-state discovery and does not directly settle this case. Its relevant principle is: Current-state and future-state analysis prevents solving an assumed problem without measuring the process being changed.

Situation: A hospital already has an enterprise software agreement but a project team plans an overlapping purchase from an unapproved reseller.

Facilitate a joint problem-solving discussion to identify underlying interests and agree on a decision that meets critical project constraints. That response is associated with Collaborative conflict resolution and does not directly settle this case. Its relevant principle is: Collaboration seeks a solution addressing substantive concerns; avoidance defers conflict and forcing relies on authority rather than consensus. The stated case instead calls for: Check prequalified suppliers, existing agreements, and terms of reference before starting a new procurement competition. Situation: A hospital already has an enterprise software agreement but a project team plans an overlapping purchase from an unapproved reseller.
