Automation Architecture Decision Canvas
Choose the implementation approach using evidence already gathered.
Outcomes
- A focused decision or design artifact that reuses earlier evidence
- Earlier canvas outputs are referenced instead of repeated
- The next decision, design step, or readiness gap is explicit

Automation Architecture Decision Canvas
Choose the implementation approach using evidence already gathered. Bring forward constraints and responsibility choices. Compare only viable mechanisms, then record the decision and remaining risks.

How it works
- Bring forward constraints and responsibility choices. Compare only viable mechanisms, then record the decision and remaining risks.
- Complete only the sections that add a new decision or refinement.
- Carry the resulting decisions forward to the next station.
