Iterative Convergence Round
Execute one complete iteration of the Delphi convergence cycle: collect independent judgments from all perspectives, distribute anonymized feedback showing the group distribution, allow revision, measure consensus level, and decide whether another round is needed.
Stages
- Collect — Run
judgment-collectionto gather independent ratings/estimates from each perspective - Feedback — Run
feedback-distributionto create anonymized summary of group responses - Measure — Run
consensus-measurementto compute agreement level (IQR, % agreement, Kendall's W) - Decide — Run
round-decisionto determine continue/stop based on threshold and stability
Available SOPs
| SOP | Role in Tactic |
|---|---|
| judgment-collection | Gather independent judgments from all perspectives |
| feedback-distribution | Create and distribute anonymized feedback report |
| consensus-measurement | Compute consensus score using appropriate method |
| round-decision | Determine whether to run another round or stop |
Execution Guidance
- Judgments MUST be collected independently (no cross-contamination)
- Feedback MUST be anonymized (no attribution to specific perspectives)
- Consensus measurement method should match data type (IQR for continuous, % for categorical)
- Stop conditions: consensus threshold met OR stability detected OR max rounds reached
- If stopping without consensus, document which items remain unresolved
Minimum Yield
- Consensus items list (items that reached consensus)
- Non-consensus items (items that did not converge, with reasons)
- Round log (round-by-round progression of scores)
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|---|
| consensus-measurement | Compute consensus score from collected judgments using the appropriate statistical method. |
| feedback-distribution | Create anonymized feedback report summarizing group judgment distribution for a given round. |
| judgment-collection | Collect independent judgments from all perspectives on a given question. |
| round-decision | Decide whether to continue iterating or stop based on consensus score, round number, and stability. |
