Why it Matters?
Playbooks capture institutional knowledge that would otherwise reside with individual counsel and be lost on transition, which is their principal value for organizations facing recurring claim types. The corresponding risk is mechanical application to matters whose facts warrant departure, which makes explicit guidance on when to deviate as important as the standard approach. Annual revision keeps the content current.
