Benchmark: cross-reference validation after renumbering
Noor HaddadPrivacy Counsel4 min read
The problem
The short version: cross-reference validation after renumbering is easier to get wrong than most teams assume, and the failure is usually silent.
How we measured it
In the current build this runs as part of the standard pass, so it applies to every document in the set rather than only the ones someone thought to check.
Where it breaks
Scanned originals with poor image quality remain the weakest input. So do agreements that were assembled from three precedents and never reconciled, which is common in long-lived supplier relationships.
