Quantum | Jack Butler-Kettle

= a figure built to be scrutinised: every number traceable down through its build-up to a record the other side can be shown. That trace is the work, and it is the difference between a valuation that gets followed and one that gets discounted.

Hover or tap any node in the trace for the detail behind it. A figure is only worth its weakest layer, so the other side works from the bottom up: where the record is missing, the discount follows.

A claimed figure drawn as a traceability chain: decomposing a single number down to its proof, to show where it holds and where it breaks.

Problems

Find the one that reads like your problem. Each page explains what is actually happening and the way out of it.

An adjudication is running and we're out of hands

The timetable is live, the quantum is the biggest workstream on the file, and everyone who could build it is already committed.

I have this problem

The other side has taken our figures apart

Their surveyor's response goes through our valuation line by line, and some of the hits have landed.

I have this problem

Our case is strong but the numbers are thin

The entitlement is well argued and the events are proved, but the quantum is a spreadsheet nobody in the team fully trusts.

I have this problem

Nobody trusts the chronology

Every workstream keeps its own timeline, the timelines disagree, and the submission needs one story the record will actually back.

I have this problem

We have more claims work than quantum people

The pipeline is the best it has ever been, and the measuring capacity to deliver it is not there.

I have this problem

The extension of time was awarded and the money wasn't

Time granted settles the damages; the extended prelims and running costs behind it are a separate calculation nobody has done.

I have this problem

The disruption is real and we can't put a number on it

We know the sequence was wrecked. Turning that into measured productivity loss is the part that keeps failing.

I have this problem

We know we've lost money and don't know what to claim under

The costs are real and nobody has separated them into heads a tribunal will recognise.

I have this problem

The prolongation cost needs building and we don't know what goes in it

Time-related costs, thickened preliminaries, and the line between them.

I have this problem

The other side's number looks invented and we can't say why

It needs taking apart line by line by somebody who builds these for a living.

I have this problem

We need to stress-test our own quantum before they do

Nobody has gone through it looking for the soft spots.

I have this problem

The records arrived as ten thousand files and no structure

Before anything can be valued, somebody has to make the evidence usable.

I have this problem
