## Inquiry and proposal trends

![Illustrative monthly inquiries and proposals](assets/charts/trend.vl.json)

From April to September, fictional inquiries rise from 120 to 240 and proposals from 52 to 78. These figures alone do not establish a production bottleneck. Check inquiry quality, staffing and case complexity too.

## Working time by task

![Illustrative task hours and untested pilot targets](assets/charts/hours.vl.json)

A target of 7 hours against a 12-hour baseline implies 5 hours, or about 42%, less time. This is an untested pilot hypothesis, not a promised reduction.

## Measurement assumptions

Compare proposals of similar difficulty. Record working time from the first draft to approval. Separate waiting and meetings, and retain revision details so that differences in quality are not overlooked.
