How evidence and economics are stated

Leania separates delivered results, released capacity, identified opportunity and forecast value so leadership can see exactly what has — and has not — been achieved.

The classes are never blended. A forecast is never restated as a realised saving, and released capacity is never presented as cash.

How the capacity number is built

Every input stated separately, so finance can challenge any one of them

  1. Observed demand (cases per year)
  2. Recoverable effort (minutes per case)
  3. Coverage (%)
  4. Adoption (%)
  5. 60 (minutes per hour)
  6. Recoverable capacity (hours per year)

Every term carries its unit. This calculation yields hours per year, not money: the value model applies the rate that converts those hours into a value pool.

Each input carries how it was established
  • Measured
  • Client-supplied
  • Derived
  • Assumption

Adoption is shown as a variable, not an assumption made on your behalf: capacity is only released if the redesigned way of working is actually adopted.

Where the capacity goes
  • Cashable

    Cost that leaves the business.

  • Capacity release

    Hours returned to fee-earning or absorbed volume, not cash.

  • Cost avoidance

    Cost that would otherwise have been incurred.

Each branch is shown three ways
  • Conservative
  • Expected
  • Upper

The three branches are never blended into one number, and the sensitivity range travels with the figure.

Evidence discipline

What has, and has not, been achieved

  • Realised cash benefit
  • Delivered operational performance improvement
  • Cost avoidance
  • Capacity released
  • Identified opportunity
  • Forecast business-case value
The boundary

Variables only. No figure is shown here, because a figure without a workflow behind it is an illustration of arithmetic rather than evidence.

Start where the evidence starts: one workflow.
