Recorded, and Still There

Five Years of the School of Continuous Improvement's Work on the Half-Tin of Paint That Now Carries a Reason for Being Kept

The School of Continuous Improvement's five-year impact report on retained holdings: an instrument that attaches a recorded intended use to a kept item, a review protocol that treats deferral as a permitted outcome, and twenty-two audited sites across which recorded intent rose at every holding type measured. The School's stated position is that this measures documentation rather than restraint.
