A trade-off means that you are compromising one area to benefit another area. For example, a trade-off in automobile safety is cost. A car could be produced that was very safe, but it would be too expensive. So, we trade-off safety (by reducing it), to get lower cost. Almost every decision, design, or negotiation uses trade-offs.

When a decision, design, or negotiation does not have a trade-off (for example, if you could make a safer car cheaper at the same time) then this is an idealized solution which is very rare.

So what is required is an analysis of every facet of the design, solution, or agreement, each facet's relationship to each other and the final output, and a decision made to get the best solution based on many competing factors.
