Step 1: Continuous Distillation
Context Driven Project Management
AI-ready project management
— powered by a living Single Source of Truth.
CDPM: From Artifacts to Project Context
Four building blocks that make projects AI-ready. No more hunting for reports, no more outdated artifacts - just real-time intelligence from a living project context.
Context
Single Source of Truth
Living project state - up to date, complete, correct and consistent
Analysis
Transparent Project Status
Deep insights into project health and performance from unified context
Guidance
Context Driven Actions
Create, prioritize, and re-evaluate action items based on project context and goals
Updates
Continuous Information Flow
Capture, filter, validate and integrate project updates from all sources
Distillation: From Raw Information to Project Context
One update, multiple atomic effects. Each distillate is individually validated and committed.
Raw Info
Email, meeting notes, ticket
Distillation
Filtering & atomic breakdown
Distillates
Multiple atomic effects
Validation
PRO Validation & Commit
Context
SSOT updated
Practice Example: API Delay
Atomic Distillation
Complex updates decomposed into individually validatable, unidimensional effects
Selective Commits
PRO can accept, reject, or defer individual distillates for clarification
Audit Trail
Versioned commit history: Who, when, why, what effect - fully traceable
Explicit Time-Budget-Scope Triad
Every decision shows immediate impacts on all three dimensions. Customer requests a new feature? Trade-offs are transparent before commitment.
Project running as planned. All three dimensions in balance.
What-if Scenarios
Original plan with balanced time, budget, and scope targets.
CDPM Advantage: Transparent Trade-offs
Unlike classical (late visibility) or agile (often implicit) approaches, CDPM makes the triad explicit from the start.
Transparent
All effects visible before decision
Immediate
Impact quantified in real-time
Holistic
Dependencies automatically included
How Live Collaboration Works in the CDPM Whitepaper
The whitepaper is a SSOT itself, following the CDPM principle that context leads and external signals are distilled into context, and it serves as an example of how a rolling SSOT can work in practice.
Contribute live in the reader
Click directly on a passage and submit your proposed change plus rationale in contribute mode.
Automatic validation
Filters and AI triage check quality and relevance. Only valid suggestions become visible.
Community prioritization
Suggestions stay anchored in context and are evaluated per location via up/down votes.
Distillation by the Project Owner
Meaningful suggestions are accepted, integrated into the markdown SSOT, and then published.
Collaboration happens live in the reader. Add your improvement exactly where it belongs.
