Cutting RFIs with Disciplined MEP Clash Coordination

Clashes are a process, not an event

Running a single clash test the week before issue guarantees chaos. Coordination works when it is a weekly rhythm with a clear matrix, owners for each conflict and a burn-down everyone can see.

Build the matrix first

Before the first test, define which systems clash-check against which, and at what tolerance. This keeps the report focused on real conflicts instead of thousands of soft hits.

Close the loop

Every resolved clash should be tracked to sign-off. A coordinated model that nobody signed off on is just an optimistic guess.
