Requirements
Each requirement must eventually be verifiable — not policy prose.
Every project must have a system-generated Project ID matching IET-YYYY-NNNN, assigned at Project Creation and never reassigned or edited.
Evidence: System recordVerification: SystemBlockRequire
Every project must also have a human-readable display name, stored separately from the Project ID, which may change without affecting the ID.
Evidence: System recordVerification: System
No other system record may reference a project by its display name — every cross-reference uses the Project ID.
Evidence: System recordVerification: SystemBlock
- Future system rule
System auto-generates the Project ID; manual override is blocked.
Compliance measurement
Projects with a non-conforming or duplicate Project ID ÷ total projects — should be zero once IDs are system-generated.
