Has statement | It would have been better to involve some end users at earlier stages of the system development; |
Has evidence | Sometimes researchers and developers do not have all the necessary practical experience to understand all the exigencies of the other actors involved in the system. |
Has consequences | End users can suggest DSS contents and features closer to their needs. Moreover, their involvement may result in a higher acceptance and usage of the system. |
Has recommendation for action | Ask actor categories to choose their representatives to participate in some early stage meetings and to test the first prototypes of the DSS. |

Has other relevant information | This requirement depends on the problem statement; some problems can be solved without neighbourhood interrelations. Some problems with neighbourhood interrelations, such as demanding a large area of interior conditions (no edge effects) tend to be large combinatorial problems. |
