I'm personally a huge fan of the SPADE framework from Gokul Rajaram. First Round has a really good write-up on how to use it. [1] It serves both as an ADR and also a framework for making that decision in the first place, in one. I've introduced this at a few places I've worked and it's been very well received.

At Khan Academy, we've been using ADRs for three years now, using Michael Nygard's format as a starting point. We adopted ADRs at the same time we adopted DACI (Driver, Approver, Contributors, Informed) as a decision making framework across the organization, so our ADRs server both of these purposes as well.
