How scoring works

Each check is one point. Decision-ready means 9 to 12 checks and at least 3 in every section. A high total with an empty section is a warning, not a pass.

0 to 4: Not ready to decide

Define and show the standard before you judge.

5 to 8: Close the gaps first

Finish the unchecked steps before the next talk.

9 to 12: Ready to decide

Make the call, and make it this week.
