+# Engineering work definition of ready
+
+The engineering team gets many different kinds of work from many different sources. An important question for solving these work items is: _**is something ready to be worked on?**_
+
+Answering this question, requires at least the following information:
+
+- [What kind of work item something is](dor:categorization)
+- [Does it have all the information needed for a member of the engineering team to start working on?](dor:ready)
+- If it does not, what exactly is the information needed? And who is responsible for providing it?
+- Once all the information is provided, is there explicit documentation on what actually needs to be done?
+
