|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | For an acute quality or delivery problem, the method structures immediate protection and root cause work together. It keeps the situation stable while the actual cause is investigated cleanly. | The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success. |
