PLOP → measurement → market → financial record

A place becomes
a traceable record.

Stay with one watershed. Watch its measurements change. Follow the equations, decisions and records that carry its evidence to the balance sheet.

Illustrative Example · Synthetic classroom observations. No real place is scored, no credits issued, no live price quoted and no accounting entry made.

Before the pipeline

The place sets the rules

Place governance defines the boundary, baseline, methods, allocation and destinations before measurement or pricing. Every artifact carries this policy version.

Approve. Reproduce. Reconcile.

These classroom approvals model dependencies. Remove a prerequisite and its downstream records are held, even when a later checkbox remains selected.
