The action trail connects approval, procurement, receipt, training and record updates rather than treating them as unrelated tasks.
Missing follow-through becomes visible—for example, an asset can arrive while training or QR-linked information remains incomplete.
The organisation retains both the understanding that justified the action and the evidence of what happened afterwards.
