  • Budget-versus-actual variance commentary

    Before the month's results go to management, the finance lead gets written commentary on every line that moved past the threshold: the figures, the budget owner's explanation marked confirmed or to be confirmed, a bridge from budget to actual, and the questions still open. No cause is invented.

  • Funder report draft

    Before a funder report is due, the grants manager gets a draft written to the funder's own questions, with every number tied to a record, an index of the evidence behind each statement and a list of what is still unanswered. People verify it, approve it and submit it.

  • Program outcome map

    Before an evaluation, the program and evaluation leads get one map linking each activity to the outcome it is meant to serve, with proposed measures, data sources, assumptions and the questions the evidence cannot yet answer. It claims no impact.
