    The Decision

    In their words

    Name the exact authorization or sign-off call they are making, using buyer language.

    02

    The Stakes

    Their number, not your fee

    What does getting it wrong or delaying cost them in unbudgeted downtime, risk, or re-work?

    ROI Stakes CalculatorAuto-Fills Stakes
    Pro Tip: Expressing risk as a ratio frames your fee as risk insurance rather than an expense.
    03

    The Method

    One short paragraph

    What you capture and why it fits without technical jargon.

    04

    The Proof

    Accuracy & QA standards

    Tolerance, RMSE, and the specific QA/compliance report referenced by name.

    05

    The Delivery

    In their schema

    Where it lands in their existing system (ArcGIS, BIM 360, SAP, CMMS) with matching asset tags.

    06

    The Ask

    Unmistakable next step

    Price, timeline, execution window, and one clear action required.

    Why This Architecture Works

    Commodity proposals list drone specs, flight hours, and payload models. Procurement strips those down into $150/hr line items.

    Executive Decision Briefs anchor to the business decision and quantify the stakes. By stating accuracy standards and delivery schema up front, you eliminate buyer friction and anchor fees to business outcomes ($15K–$50K+).
