http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#InstitutionalRoleNon-ExpansionofTechnicalCompetenceScope
Applied to
Army physical security and arms storage regulatory compliance certification
Balancing with
Regulatory Domain Competence Prerequisite for Compliance Certification
Concrete expression
Engineer A's assignment as Building and Grounds Division Chief at a military installation does not expand Engineer A's professional competence to encompass Army physical security, arms storage, and explosive safety regulations, even though such matters fall within the administrative jurisdiction of the division; the role title cannot substitute for domain expertise.
Confidence
0.94
Importance
high
Interpretation
The administrative scope of the Building and Grounds Division Chief role may encompass arms storage facilities, but this administrative jurisdiction does not translate into technical competence in the specialized regulatory framework governing those facilities.
Invoked by
Military Installation Civilian Engineering Division Chief
Tension resolution
Institutional role assignment is irrelevant to the competence determination; Engineer A must decline the certification regardless of role title.
