Default illustrative result
4 capabilities fit the supplied budget and delivery capacity in prerequisite order. The architecture and audit trail retain every selected identifier and prerequisite. Planned investment is 435 USDk, with 36 person-months of effort. Adjusted annual benefit is 253.76 USDk/year. 65 USDk and 12 person-months remain.

Transparent method
- Adjusted annual benefit = stated annual benefit × confidence × readiness. These are explicit judgement multipliers, not measured probabilities.
- For each candidate, compute the unselected prerequisite closure, cost, effort and adjusted annual benefit.
- Choose the affordable closure with highest marginal annual benefit / investment cost; ties resolve by ID. Repeat with the remaining budget and effort.
- Selected sequence follows dependencies. Zero-cost positive-benefit bundles take precedence, subject to effort.
- Budget and effort admission compare exact sums of the canonical decimal input numbers, without an absolute feasibility allowance. JSON resourceEvaluation retains the exact decimal capacity, used and remaining accounts.
- Tied bundle ratios use literal identifier order independent of browser language for consistent selection; this remains the declared heuristic rather than proof of an optimum.
Limits
- A deterministic greedy heuristic, not a global optimum, NPV or recommendation to invest.
- Additive annual benefits assume no overlap, synergies or benefit decay. Readiness and confidence can double count risk if defined inconsistently.
- No owners, calendars, resource roles or actual enterprise data are inferred.
- Numerical input precision: use zero or absolute values of at least 0.000000001. Smaller nonzero inputs are rejected explicitly.
- Annual benefits and density rankings are Number approximations. Resource sums retain canonical decimal precision after JSON parsing; digits already lost in parsing cannot be recovered. The exact resource account does not establish a globally optimal portfolio.
