A Five-Level Maturity Model for Floor-Level Bottle-Swap Discipline, Tested Against Its Own Predictive Telemetry Channel
A paper from the School of Continuous Improvement scores 84 water-cooler floors in 19 buildings against a five-level Water Cooler Readiness Maturity Model built from load-cell bottle-weight telemetry, finding level assignments largely unchanged when the model's predictive telemetry channel is removed, and reporting Facilities Services' adoption of the model's third level as a binding, non-waivable condition of a floor's water-cooler service contract.
