COMPONENTS
One institution. Connected work.
02
Digital platform
CMS, domain infrastructure, search, and archival migration.
03
Scholarship
Catalogue, provenance, archive intelligence, and evidence review.
04
Institutional knowledge
Documents, governance, records, and decision history.
05
Operations
Administrative workflows and assistance.
06
Development

METHOD
Begin with one hundred works.
Labor measured before and after. Accuracy compared with known records. Human correction and review time recorded.
GOVERNANCE
Partners contribute resources, not ownership.
Partners contribute resources to the Foundation’s project, not ownership over its scholarly corpus. The architecture is vendor-neutral and modular. Institution-specific data and scholarship remain with the institution.
RESULTS
Results will be published here, including failure cases.
Until measurement is complete, no productivity percentage will be presented as a result.
