When to bring us in / 02 GMP

Set the GMP basis before it becomes history.

The GMP-stage handoff settles one open basis question before the estimate narrative is issued.

How a GMP-stage review is framed. We build the brief around one decision, set the documents that control it side by side, and hand it to the person who owns the call. The brief below shows the shape of that handoff.

Illustrative brief. Composite example, not customer work.
