<stealth> — Development Lead
Typically a service, or “Value Stream”, is a component of a larger system, modeled as a series of steps, a boundary delimited fragment, where each step is a key waypoint on the road toward some definite objective.

A Service Specification is how we express the plan, a means to codify the creation of value for the business.

Michael Godeck — CTO
Successful implementation of a strategy depends on being able to communicate not just the goal, but the plan.

Drying out ambiguity of intent is essential. If we had a method to describe the plan in a consistent way that was sufficiently clear to allow a team with appropriate competencies to execute against it, we could think of it in terms of Strategy as Code.
