Never Build It Twice
The problem
Someone drops out at 11pm and the whole chart has to be rebuilt.
What this does about it
How any couple can absorb every change without it costing them the whole job again.
What it is
Change one thing and only what actually moved changes.
What we ascribe to it
CA$470. Six to eight hours of rework avoided across three to five rebuilds. Anchored on the same rate as the core.
That figure is what this would cost you to solve another way, not a claim about what it is worth. Five of the nine parts anchor to something real and four are a judgement call, which is why the total is always stated as what paying for each separately would come to.
