OSPD Method Requirements + Value Proposition

General Approach

OSE is developing methods for civilization-scale engineering for a better world. This means creating the world around us: products, organizations, institutions.

OSE is evolving its focus to a generative problem-solving method. This means starting with the presumption and mental model that for tranformation to happen, the results of that transformation are by definition not yet present, and therefore many ingredients to that transformation must be created. Such ingredients include people, time, resources, money, capacity, standards, organizations, and institutions. The conceptually-simple answer to this chicken-and-egg problem is that many of these resources must be created.
