Principle of Last Responsible Moment (CoD) - Moustov/sw-craftsmanship-map GitHub Wiki

This principle (aka Cost of Delay) originates from Lean Software Development and emphasises holding on taking important actions and crucial decisions for as long as possible. This is done so as to not eliminate important alternatives until the last possible moment i.e. wait to narrow the options down until you are better informed.
