Questions to answer before deciding

  • Which second workstream is essential?
  • What can wait without compromising the result?
  • Who is accountable for each outcome?

How the result is interpreted

The 0–100 result is calculated only from confirmed rows. Document completeness is shown separately so that a completed worksheet is not confused with a favourable decision.

What it does not replace

The tool structures a decision. It does not replace financial, legal, tax, technical or human review when specialist verification is required.
