Ensure requirements are measurable and traceable.

Cross‑artefact consistency and remediation - Review existing project artefacts (scope, backlog, schedule, risks, procurement inputs, architecture views, test strategy, policy controls) to identify gaps, conflicts, or inconsistencies. Maintain an issues log and resolve items prior to baselining.
