Displayed, Not Metered

Auditing a Residence-Hall Laundry App's Credit Balance Against Machine-Metered Wash Cycles Across a Payment-System Migration

A paper from the School of Continuous Improvement audits a residence-hall laundry app's wash-credit balance against independent machine-metering telemetry spanning a payment-system migration, finding the displayed balance drifts steadily from what the machines actually deliver and that a low-balance notification leaves student top-up behaviour unchanged.
