Put the decision first.
Present fixes the storyline. Unique design makes the readiness comparison easier to read.
The task
Steering committee: approve a bounded pilot and confirm its owner.
Complete fictional notes. No company records.
Try this workflow ↗# Quarterly update — illustrative brief Create a short steering committee update for Project Horizon. Lead with the decision the committee needs to make. Show the delivery status, three workstreams, and the next 90 days. Keep the figures and caveats exactly as supplied. Finish with the decision and owner. Use a quiet editorial style with warm paper, forest ink, and one terracotta accent. ## Fictional source material - Q3 delivery: 8 of 10 milestones completed; two are scheduled for October. - Readiness: Product 84%, Operations 68%, Enablement 52%. These are illustrative readiness estimates, not audited measurements. - Next 90 days: validate in October, pilot in November, review in December. - Decision: approve a bounded pilot; sponsor to confirm the owner before launch. No customer or company records were used. These figures are fictional and must not be cited as business results.

Unique design · Slide 3 · readiness
Enablement already has an accent bar, but its label shares the same visual weight and the qualification sits below the comparison.
Attention reaches Enablement without changing labels, percentages or qualification.
Retained: Forest ink, warm paper, terracotta accent, common zero-based bar scale, all three readiness labels and values, the exact qualification, delivery slide, timeline and Present controller.
