# Roadmap Stage — Elaboration

## Criteria Guidance

### Good criteria — concrete and verifiable

- "Roadmap sequences initiatives with explicit dependency chains between items"
- "Each milestone has measurable success criteria and a list of constituent initiatives"
- "Capacity plan identifies resource constraints and maps them to roadmap phases"

### Bad criteria — vague (no clear check)

- "Roadmap is created"
- "Milestones are defined"
- "Dependencies are noted"
