# InfoTechCanon Organization Model concept boundary review — 2026-09-20

Authority: INFO-WP-0027-T02 and T07, which declared the concepts this model
defines, and T05, which resolved residual R-3 from the SecurityCanon boundary
review. No concept is renamed, moved or removed.

| Concept | Owner | Resolution | Decided by |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `Authority` | model/organization | The recognized right to make decisions, allocate resources, approve changes, enforce rules or direct action within a scope. The CARING section 10.7 `Authority` exposure mode names an external body compelling disclosure, not a right; both sections now say so. SecurityCanon's `AuthMode` qualifies the exercise of this right and does not redefine it. | this review (R-3) |
| `Actor` | model/organization | Declared here under T02. ITC-ACCESS binds `Subject` as the access-control view of an actor; the identity model imports Actor; SecurityCanon imports it against a pinned hash. | kernel map |
| `Ownership` | model/organization | The kernel map assigns Ownership and Stewardship here. SecurityCanon's manifest pinned it to Core until the T04 name-resolution audit corrected it. | kernel map |
| `Capacity` | model/organization | The amount of work or responsibility an actor or group can realistically absorb in a period. The Capability Model's `Capacity behaviour` describes how a capability's supply responds to demand. Different questions, different names; no transfer. | this review |
| `OrganizationalCapability` | model/organization | The capacity of an organization to reliably perform a class of work. The Capability Model owns `Capability` as the canonical capability concept; this is the organizational reading of it and imports rather than competes. | this review |
| `CollectiveActor` | model/organization | A group-like actor that can hold responsibility or authority. Distinct from `Group`, which is structural, and from identity's collective concepts. | this review |
| `Person`, `Agent`, `Role`, `Membership`, `Responsibility`, `Accountability`, `Position`, `Team` | model/organization | Assigned here by the kernel map concept-owner table and declared under T02. | kernel map |

Concepts this artifact declares are listed in its frontmatter. An overlap
recorded here means another artifact defines the same name; where the owner is
another artifact, this one imports the definition rather than restating it.
