+        <section class="case-section"><h2>Approach</h2><p>The common design principle is repeatability. GUI configuration is documented, then moved into PowerShell, Group Policy, task sequences, or version-controlled deployment files wherever practical. That reduces one-off knowledge and turns troubleshooting discoveries into reusable operating procedures.</p></section>
