Judgment Engineering

Definition Charter v1.0

Status: Frozen

Judgment Engineering is the process of transforming the act of determining whether a judgment should conclude, continue, or enter execution — an act traditionally dependent on human experience — into an engineering object that can be recognized, constrained, and inherited by systems.

What It Is Not

• Not a decision-making methodology
• Not an optimization technique
• Not a recommendation system
• Not an answer-generation mechanism

Conditions of Existence

• The judgment has execution consequences
• The system faces a continue vs stop dilemma
• Further information does not naturally conclude the judgment

Exit Conditions

The term "Judgment Engineering" should be abandoned once judgment completion becomes a default system capability and no longer constitutes a risk or responsibility boundary.

This site exists solely to define the term. Engineering, specification, and execution are handled elsewhere.
