The incentive question
What the partner gains from the partnership working well.
The part
What it is
This is the criterion that predicts performance after the contract is signed, and it is the one most often assumed rather than asked.
Where the honest answer is that the partner gains little from your success specifically, no governance arrangement will compensate.
The smallest level
The attributes it carries
Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
