The SPP 1921 pursues the approach and the aspiration to harness a successful principle of "forgetting" in humans for socio-digital systems of the organization. Over the entire six-year period, SPP 1921 has set itself the goals of harnessing the mechanisms of human forgetting processes for a technical-organizational context. In the second funding phase of the SPP, the results achieved in the first funding phase are to be transferred to the application context of the factory and the administration. In this sense, the focus of the co-ordination project is increasingly directed towards public relations and the presentation of results for those interested in the field.Based on the results of the internal evaluation, the offers in the context of equal opportunity as well as for the doctoral candidates will be extended by offers for experienced junior scientists in addition to offers for newcomers thematically and differentiated according to soft skills and science skills. In the tandem workshops, the developed exhibits and the discussion with practitioners, e.g. in the context of participation in the Hannover Messe, are posed in the center.In addition, a content-related and theoretical integration will take place in a “Z project”. The aim of the content and methodological linkage in the Z project is to develop, complete and use a scientifically sound and practice-oriented framework for procedures and management, methods and descriptive techniques as well as tools, and to make them usable across disciplines. Through the more detailed analysis of the use of individual terms and approaches in tandem projects, principles of order or facets can be gained that represent clearly defined areas of research and application. Parallel to the contextual linking, the methodical exchange between the tandem projects is to be systematized. From a classification system, a meta-model should also be generalized, which allows the principles of order, the classification and the connection of the individual approaches.Through the meta-model, practical and domain-related aspects of the second funding phase can be systematically integrated into the system of order. Newly funded projects will be integrated under extension of the system of order. The following areas should be examined in more detail: a) Technical approaches under the topic "Forgetting Analytics", b) Psychological approaches under the topic "Directed and Motivated Forgetting", c) Organizational and management theoretical approaches under the topic "Managing forgetting", d) Design approaches under the topic "Modeling forgetting". The meta-model developed here makes it possible to link the individual practice-related areas with one another and to make them usable in practice in a process model. Specifically, this allows domain-specific standard models, e.g. derive a model for forgetting in manufacturing companies or for forgetting in administrations.
