Case structure

The questions underneath the work.

  1. What promise did the system need to keep?
  2. What was the current condition?
  3. Could the process meet demand as designed?
  4. Where were people compensating for system weakness?
  5. What felt frustrating, difficult, or futile?
  6. What countermeasures were tested?
  7. What changed in the results and behavior?
  8. What standard or routine made the improvement sustainable?
