From a claim to a defensible decision record

Seven controlled research steps

1. Agree the single decision, client inputs, deadline, conflict and legal boundaries

   Each material source and omission is dated, attributed and treated according to its evidential limits.

2. Match identity, aliases, product identifiers or assets across records

   Each material source and omission is dated, attributed and treated according to its evidential limits.

3. Log originals, timestamps, dates of effect, access permissions and coverage

   Reconcile supplier identity, facilities, filings, public contracts and adverse events.

4. Create a claim-to-evidence matrix with independent contrary-source search

   Reconcile supplier identity, facilities, filings, public contracts and adverse events.

5. Resolve chronology, entity relationships and alternative explanations

   Each material source and omission is dated, attributed and treated according to its evidential limits.

6. Review reliance categories and missing records; apply human quality assurance

   Each material source and omission is dated, attributed and treated according to its evidential limits.

7. Deliver a finite written record with a question pack for the professional decision owner

   Each material source and omission is dated, attributed and treated according to its evidential limits.
