Framework

## Case-Study Framework

This is an illustrative scenario, not a real client case. It shows the structure we use to document a verified case study on controlling cost and billing on projects.

A real case study would include the starting situation, what was changed, how results were measured and the client's permission.
- Situation: describe the business and the problem
- Approach: list what was changed and why
- Results: only measured outcomes the client has approved
- Lessons: what the team would do differently
