IVC
IVC stands for Internal Value Chain.
It is the traceability model that links work performed to proof captured, metrics updated, decisions made, and enterprise value logic.

What it is
The SkillSystem does not treat a company as a loose collection of departments. It treats the company as a directed graph of meaning where each node has a clear role and each edge has a clear handoff.
That graph is the Internal Value Chain.
Why it matters
- It prevents execution from becoming disconnected from outcomes.
- It creates a shared spine across teams, metrics, and proof.
- It makes value creation easier to explain and govern.
The 9-node graph
- ValueLog
- Task
- Process
- KPI
- OKR
- ValuationOps
- AAA
- IRI
- Valuation
The two important paths are:
- Cash-flow path: ValueLog -> Task -> Process -> KPI -> ValuationOps -> Valuation
- Risk path: AAA -> IRI -> Valuation
The operating idea
Work is only truly useful when it can be traced forward into outcomes and backward into evidence.
That is what the IVC does. It turns disconnected activity into a chain that leadership can inspect.
Why it is a graph, not just a hierarchy
The point is not only to show where work sits. The point is to show how evidence, measurement, accountability, risk, and value translation all connect.
That is why the site now mixes a navigation hierarchy with graph-style relationship panels. Humans need the hierarchy. Search engines, answer engines, and operators need the relationships.
How it fits on the public site
The public ValuationOps route structure is one readable projection of the same graph:
ValuationOps -> RevenueOps -> Suites -> Flows -> Processes
Tasks, KPIs, OKRs, and ValueLogs then remain as canonical reusable entity pages that connect back into that spine.
