Audit commercial technical commitment integrity
Audit signed commercial promises against explicitly allocated technical scope, dependency order, funded capacity, acceptance criteria and evidence; expose orphan scope, double allocation, cycles, late plans and maximum contractual penalty without interpreting legal rights from engineering activity.
What it's for
Shows when sales has promised technical scope that is orphaned, double-sold, dependency-impossible, unfunded or planned after the contractual date—before it becomes a customer and cash crisis.
What you give it
Inputs split into evidence read from your connected systems, calibration your team owns, and numerical controls that affect precision but never the result's meaning.

} How it works
Constrained optimization — Pick the best feasible option under real limits — budget, headcount, dependencies, capacity — rather than ranking a list and hoping it fits.
- 1 Freeze signed commitment, promised date, acceptance criteria, contracted scope, funded capacity and maximum-penalty facts, then join technical scope only through governed commitment and scope-item identities.
- 2 Reconcile fraction-weighted technical scope to each contracted amount and every shared scope item's total allocation to at most one, retaining unfunded scope and unverified evidence rather than netting gaps away.
- 3 Audit dependency existence, acyclicity and planned temporal order, compare the latest technical completion with the promise, and return bounded commitment-level exposure diagnostics.
Before you trust it
Every tool in the catalog ships with the conditions under which its answer is meaningful — and the conditions under which it should abstain instead of guessing.
Assumptions & guardrails
- Objectives use commensurable locally governed value units, constraints reflect real feasibility, and uncertainty covers plausible adverse inputs.
- Scope and capacity units are comparable; commitment/scope versions are point-in-time; shared technical work uses explicit fractional allocation; dependencies and schedules are complete; promised dates, acceptance criteria and maximum penalties come from authoritative contract review.
- The recommendation is optimal only for its stated objective, feasible set, evidence, and solver guarantee; it is not a universal management optimum.
- The function is a cross-system integrity audit, not legal advice, contract interpretation, revenue recognition or proof that code activity satisfies acceptance. It never ranks customers or workers.
Minimum evidence
- commitments: at least 1 rows/items
- scope_allocations: at least 1 rows/items
How to validate it
Backtest the chosen action against simple feasible baselines on held-out scenarios, sweep costs/constraints/risk tolerance, and require constraint feasibility under adverse inputs.
Calibrating it to your org
Same for everyone
The mathematical kernel, validation rules, method version, and JSON output semantics are organization-independent; no tenant-trained coefficients or company benchmark is embedded in the function.
Specific to you
- point-in-time cross-system obligation graph joining reviewed commercial terms to versioned product/engineering scope and finance-approved capacity without overwriting earlier promise or plan vintages
- legal obligation and remedy perimeter, scope/capacity unit, allocation policy for shared work, dependency completeness, schedule epoch, acceptance authority, funding boundary, reconciliation tolerances, pseudonymization, retention and accountable contract/product/engineering/finance owners
Calibration workflow
- 1 Define the management decision, target outcome, aggregate unit, privacy boundary, cadence, and prediction/intervention horizon for this organization.
- 2 Build a tenant-scoped historical cohort using only information available before each prediction or decision; preserve zero periods, censoring, assignment probabilities, and unresolved outcomes when the method requires them.
- 3 Estimate statistical parameters on training history, but obtain costs, utilities, risk tolerance, practical-effect thresholds, capacity, and policy constraints from accountable decision owners.
- 4 Validate on later time windows or held-out aggregate units at the deployment grain, against a simple baseline and the function-specific validation strategy.
- 5 Deploy only if the returned decision clears evidence, overlap, calibration, robustness, and guardrail checks; warning, unsupported, schema-gap, and fallback decisions are abstentions.
- 6 Monitor realized outcomes, data drift, coverage, and decision regret; recalibrate at a governed cadence or after a detected regime/definition change, never merely because a stakeholder dislikes the result.
