Growth and operations
Why do my workarounds now need their own workarounds?
That usually means the system no longer fits the process and each new fix is compensating for an older limitation. List the workarounds, the problem each one solves, and the time or risk it adds. Remove the root limitation instead of adding another layer.
What to check
- Which workaround causes the most extra work?
- What original limitation created it?
- Can the underlying system or process be changed instead?
