Key points in this article

  1. Set retrofit quality bar
  2. Fit daily use

On the topic of retrofitting existing sites, what quality should mean is the step that decides whether the project holds up over the years. A clear answer before installation beats a rushed fix once the site is busy and users depend on it daily.

Why what quality should mean matters for retrofitting existing sites

Discussions about retrofitting existing sites often jump straight to hardware and point counts. The real work, however, is what quality should mean, because that is where responsibility, capacity, and cost either line up or quietly drift apart, and correcting it later is far more expensive.

Practical notes on what quality should mean

Carrying what quality should mean through to the end means matching the plan to the actual site. A charger that fits the location beats a bigger one that ignores it, and the difference shows up clearly in real utilization over time.
