Completion revenue
Contribution before overhead
Model boundary and monthly ledger

Constant monthly inputs; zero opening backlog; new orders can complete in the same month; no cancellations or seasonal change. Capacity represents the entire delivery chain, including external approvals. Fractional projects represent expected volumes. Revenue is modeled at completion, not cash collected. Contribution excludes overhead, tax, financing and acquisition costs. No household savings, market size, or emissions forecast is implied.

Research agenda and evidence
QuestionEvidence to collectExperiment
Where does work stall?Stage timestamps, rework, approval delaysCompare time to completion before and after guided intake
Who benefits?Owner bills, provider costs, labor hours, system outputTrack household, worker and provider outcomes separately
Does continuity improve service?Equipment history, repeat faults, renewal and handoff outcomesTest a property record that persists across providers
What should we build next?Measured friction, affected users, delivery costRank interventions by observed constraint and testable benefit

Structure: Daniel’s brief and HomeGrid direction. Process reference: DOE solar process guide. Scenario inputs: invented for experimentation, not benchmarks. Property and service-contract primitives are recorded gaps in the HomeGrid memory; their live implementation has not been independently verified here.
