OPTRIC core value · exact definition
System-Level Visibility
- Understand the environment as a connected system
- Make relevant relationships/dependencies visible enough to support better decisions
Put it into practice
A single record can be accurate and still leave out something important. Look for the information that connects the request to the people, services and records it affects. Show confirmed facts and open questions separately so the next person can decide with the right context. Visibility does not mean collecting everything; it means making the relevant relationships clear.
