Overview: how GICA works

GICA helps organizations stay coherent by combining clear classification with governance rules and operational logic — so reporting matches reality.

Less confusion Better reporting Accountability Maintainable growth

Quick definition

GICA is a framework for organizing “what exists” (categories), “who can change it” (governance), and “how it behaves” (operational rules).

It’s not theory for theory’s sake — it’s structure you can implement.

The model (simple version)

1) Classification (what is it?)

Define categories that are mutually clear and operationally meaningful.

  • Define a small number of top categories
  • Use subcategories only when needed
  • Give every category a clear definition

2) Governance (who controls it?)

Define how categories, records, and rules are created, approved, and changed.

  • Owner/admin approvals for key changes
  • Standard naming and identifiers
  • Change logs for traceability

3) Operational logic (how does it behave?)

Define how work flows from inputs → checks → outputs → reporting.

  • Inputs go into controlled tables
  • Calculations are protected
  • Reports always pull from the same source-of-truth

4) Accountability (how do we defend it?)

Make it easy to answer compliance questions with evidence and traceability.

  • Receipts / evidence references
  • Approval states (pending/approved)
  • Monthly printable summaries

Practical examples

Here’s how GICA shows up in real systems.

NGO reporting

Programs → activities → expenses → outputs → donor reports.

Schools

Courses → classes → students → attendance → grades → reporting.

Small business

Services → quotes → jobs → time logs → invoices → dashboard.

GICA becomes powerful when it’s implemented in the tools your team actually uses — often Excel.
