Action register — the top fixes, ranked by money on the table

Each fix: the team that owns it, the specific change, the lost calls that prove it, and the estimated first-year revenue it could recover. Every action was adversarially re-checked against the underlying calls. Dollar figures are estimates — assumptions in Methodology.

Signals

Operational spotlight — call-handling failures

Revenue at stake by loss reason

Estimates. Per lost call: first-year customer value × probability the call closes/saves if the underlying issue is fixed. Assumptions in Methodology.

Who owns the fix × why we lose

Losses by accountable team and loss reason.
