I appreciate how hard this must be. I'll continue to be 'that person' that reports suspicious threads then, I guess you need as many eyes and ears on this as possible.
I did something recently where challenged some teams to organise a summer fete. I identified the customer (me) and gave them a very high level briefing. The team that won were the ones that managed to get closest to meeting my own criteria: I wanted a pre-meet to discuss my must have activities, I wanted it to be free, there had to be something for kids, selection of food, etc. Whilst I wasn't deliberately unhelpful, I only revealed info when they asked me the right questions, so the lesson was to capture the 'voice of the customer' upfront and you can save yourself a lot of wasted time and effort. One team did brilliantly at this, one team just didn't even bother to ask me any questions (despite walking around with an A4 sign saying "I'm your customer, ask me something"). I was completely ignored as they feverishly went about the task. Simple but effective. And you can add your own criteria according to your learning outcomes (e.g. must collaborate, must be within a set budget, must demonstrate company values)
