Report
methodology.
How a Meridian report is structured, and how to read it.
§ A — Structure
From headline to detail.
| Executive summary | The position in brief, for the person who carries the decision. |
| Scope and basis | What was covered, what was not, and the reference points used. |
| Findings | Each grounded in evidence and marked for confidence. |
| Observations | Matters outside scope that a reasonable reader would want to know. |
| Recommended actions | Where relevant, what to do next and why. |
| Sources and confidence | How each finding is grounded, so the reasoning can be checked. |
§ B — Reading it
What we cannot establish, we report.
Where evidence was expected and not found, the gap is reported as a finding. A report is a defensible account of a position at a point in time.
Not a legal opinion, a classification decision or a certificate.
