01In brief

The short answer.

Institutional Rails is the Nexus Foundry system for protocols, obligations, handoffs and receipts between institutions. It serves 7 platforms, among them Nexus Registry and Nexus Agency, and its stated limit is that a receipt is not settlement or external acceptance. Access is through an authorized project with an accountable owner, data terms and a review plan.

02Geography

Infrastructure networks in Tanzania.

Major roads, railways, ports and airports, and the density of the transport network, shown for Tanzania as an example geography for this subject.

04The problem it addresses

Decisions without records cannot be corrected.

When evidence is corrected, the decisions that relied on it must be found. A record of handoffs and obligations with references to evidence versions makes that possible, and makes accountability concrete.

  • Obligation and handoff records.
  • References to evidence versions.
  • Receipts that survive staff turnover.
