Standards

Which measurable contract tells you what good means, what evidence counts, and when an artifact is ready to trust?

The Spine​

  1. Compounding Standards — understand fittings, persisted state, the Deming loop, quality tiers, and commissioning.
  2. Regenerative Standards Economy — fund eligible experiments without letting a vote, funder, or delivery result silently redefine truth or the standard.
  3. Continuous Improvement — choose a mapping, modelling, checklist, QA, or reengineering method after Performance exposes variance.
  4. Wisdom Transfer Standard — gate significant artifacts across Purpose, Integrity, System, Knowledge, Teaching, and Transfer.
  5. KB Standards — govern names, writing, evidence, and Open Knowledge Format alignment.
  6. Standard Templates — choose the production contract for the page job.
  7. Information Architecture — place pages and folders without losing reader choice or graph meaning.

Changes my mind: a child route stops owning a distinct standards job.

Context​

  • pairs-with Performance — the declared contract gives the gauge its setpoint and evidence rule.

  • proved-by Performance — observed output and outcomes make variance visible.

  • pairs-with Evolution — named authority may retain accepted evidence as a changed requirement, threshold, scope, or evidence contract.

  • pairs-with Continuous Improvement — its methods diagnose and correct the producing system without assuming the setpoint must change.

  • applies-to Standard Templates — production instruments carry the approved contract into repeatable work.

  • depends-on Wiki Control Plane — routes authority, page jobs, and lifecycle.

  • pairs-with Systems — models the relationships and feedback that standards govern.

  • proved-by Performance — observes the gauge against the declared setpoint.

Questions​

Next question: which setpoint or evidence gate is missing from the artifact you need to trust?

  • Which observed variance belongs to execution, and which evidence would justify revising the standard?
