Management question

Locked evidence · 2026-09-16

The customer wants a concession. How far can we negotiate without giving away the return we need?

The booking is healthy. Management can concede up to R27 500 before the 22.0% target margin is crossed.

What PP sees

Current pricing already clears the approved return; this is negotiation headroom, not a corrective alert.

Clean source versus ambiguous source

The donor's fictional XLSX cases prove that PP can show what it read and refuse commitment when material evidence is unclear. Reviewing these fixtures writes only to the authorised sandbox and is cleared by reset.
