Reports

A Capacity Brief is a dated answer to one bounded question.

Every claim in it carries its source, its retrieval date, its reviewer, and a status that says how far it can be relied on. It is written to be printed, cited, and corrected.

Anatomy

What every brief contains, in this order

  1. 01

    Cover

    Title, code, version, publication date, research cutoff, next refresh, sponsor, reviewers.

  2. 02

    Scope and inclusion

    The decision question, the geography, the work packages, and the rule that puts a firm in the register.

  3. 03

    Coverage

    Bare counts with a date. Never a share of a universe nobody has measured.

  4. 04

    Register

    One row per record: claims, how many are open, the weakest status, the latest retrieval.

  5. 05

    Claims and evidence

    Every claim opens into its sources, retrieval dates, verbatim excerpts, reviewer, and rationale. Each has a stable reference.

  6. 06

    Stated limits

    What the brief does not know, written down at publication.

  7. 07

    Colophon

    The open source classes used, each with its freshness window and how it is handled.

  8. 08

    Change history and corrections

    Every version, and the free route to correct a record.

Stated limits

What this page does not claim

  1. 01

    One brief is published, and it is a research preview.

    Its register is illustrative. It exists to show the structure a buyer receives, not to publish a finding about any firm.

  2. 02

    A brief answers one bounded question.

    It is not a directory of a sector and does not attempt to be complete. Coverage is stated as a count with a date for that reason.

  3. 03

    A brief does not rank, score, or certify.

    A status is a routing instruction — what to verify next. Absence from a register is not a negative finding.

Commission a brief

Bring a decision that needs a brief.

A geography, a work package, an evidence gap. Commissioning defines the question; it never defines the answer.
