A company is four parts: the value it creates, the technology that produces it, the distribution that delivers it, and the financial model that holds them under load. Read forward, they are four irreversible design choices, and the book argues the AI era has changed the right answer to all four.
The environment reprices in quarters while the firm rebuilds in years, so the architect designs for the constraint structure itself. The book gives a site plan of six positions, a three-question rotation test, five moves, and gauges.
The constrained input, the junction, the rail, the substrate, the endpoint and the commodity seat, each with its own economic signature.
Three questions: which state the economics depend on, whether the position is on the return path, and what it looks like in the state that has not happened yet.
