The headroom

What is deliberately left unallocated.

The part

What it is

Unplanned work is a normal feature of a business, not an anomaly. A team planned to a hundred per cent will absorb it by dropping planned work silently.

Leaving explicit headroom is what makes the absorption visible rather than invisible.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
