It was an inherited governance condition. A forensic systems investigation into how a reefer temperature exception, REC-041, lost its owner across fragmented institutional layers — told in six A4 evidence frames.

02 · Question
Why did a reefer temperature excursion keep recurring — seven incidents in 48 hours — without anyone owning it? The investigation argues the cause was not a missed alert or a software bug. Corrective action CAPA-2241 had been open for 11 days. The owner field was unassigned. A monitoring dependency, REEFER-MON-VQ1, was dead; sync age was unknown; escalation was blocked; Shift B-2 ran an undocumented workaround. The method has four steps — incident reconstruction, evidence clustering into a six-category taxonomy, a recurrence map and a failure-chain map — held together by one semantic colour code, so each colour carries one meaning.
03 · Mechanism
Rebuilt live from the frames' own colour tokens. Every figure in this section: investigation narrative; data provenance not stated.
System-chain map · exception ownership pathSignal origin → institutional recurrence
[ Trace the chain ]
Node 08 / 08 · Governance recurrence · governance layer — failure pattern repeated across ownership gaps
The trace follows the order printed on Frame 04. It is a narrative chain, not a timed or measured sequence. The dashed return arc to node 01 is this sheet's reading of “recurrence”; Frame 04 does not draw it. Investigation narrative; data provenance not stated.
It failed because responsibility moved faster than documentation.

Filmic pushes bright saturated emissives toward white, so the rendered lilac and pale yellow are tone-mapping artefacts. Anything on this sheet that encodes meaning uses the source hex, never the sampled one.
