|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible. | The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success. | 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. |
