The WELL project administrator realizes that a project's special circumstances do not meet the WELL...

An alternative adherence path (AAP) is a formal request for approval and technical guidance to use an alternative strategy to comply with a specific feature and the feature intent2. An AAP is appropriate for projects with a unique, nuanced or complex element that restricts their ability to comply with existing feature requirements2. The proposal should include clear, substantiated evidence of how the proposed strategy meets the intent of the feature, which is the health and well-being goal that the feature aims to achieve2. The project administrator should submit an AAP through the WELL digital platform3 and consult with the WELL coaching contact for guidance4.
