Knownworking

Knownworking is a concept in software development and project management that refers to the practice of documenting and sharing the steps and processes that have been proven to work in a particular context. This practice is often used to improve efficiency, reduce errors, and facilitate knowledge transfer within a team or organization. By knownworking, teams can avoid reinventing the wheel and instead leverage proven methods to achieve their goals more effectively. This approach is particularly valuable in complex projects where the same tasks or challenges may arise repeatedly. Knownworking can be documented in various formats, such as runbooks, standard operating procedures, or even simple checklists, and can be updated as new information or best practices emerge. The term "knownworking" emphasizes the importance of leveraging existing knowledge and experience to achieve reliable and consistent results.
