OPS.19:4.4 - Keep results and measures on their own subjects

State each decision-relevant result on the subject and scale it actually concerns. Case completion, total flow, service, current-constraint protection, resilience, cash, participant recovery, quality, and improvement evidence do not become one result because they appear on the same dashboard.

For every relied-on measure or claim, name its subject, scheme or interpretation, time window, evidence basis, and receiving use. Distinguish a direct observation from an association, contribution claim, forecast, or causal claim. Keep an unavailable result as a gap rather than filling it with a nearby proxy.

Use OPS.12 for human-condition evidence, OPS.14 for operating and financial consequences, OPS.15 for a decision-specific account, and OPS.18 for a quality or reliability control decision when their questions are current. Their results constrain this choice; they retain their own subjects and authority.
