What defines the practices within each Practice Area?

The practices within each Practice Area are defined by their requirement to achieve a specified intent and deliver measurable value. This means that each practice is intentionally designed to support specific goals and improve processes in a way that benefits the organization. The focus is on ensuring that practices are not just arbitrary but are aligned with the overall objectives of the organization, providing a clear rationale for their inclusion.

When practices are tied to a defined intent, it becomes easier for organizations to assess whether they are meeting their goals and where improvements can be made. This alignment also fosters consistency across projects and teams, thereby enhancing overall effectiveness and efficiency within the organization.
