COMPLEXITY BAND
Foundation
01 / SITUATION

THE OPERATING MOMENT

The decision is already in motion.

Two defensible-looking numbers are headed into the same executive meeting. Their disagreement is small enough to ignore—and large enough to change the story.

YOUR MANDATE

Establish what each figure measures, reconcile the evidence, and leave leadership with a scorecard whose definitions and limitations can survive review.

02 / OPERATING CONDITIONS

WHAT THE WORK DEMANDS

Interrogate before you recommend.

You receive access to a bounded part of Meridian’s synthetic enterprise estate. The briefing defines the decision—not the analytical path or a preferred answer.

SQL / EVIDENCE CONSTRUCTION

Establish the facts.

Profile grains, scales, cohorts, duplicate interactions, and response coverage.

PYTHON / ANALYTICAL JUDGMENT

Stress-test the decision.

Reproduce the profile in Pandas, visualize scale/cohort differences, and create the scorecard artifact.
