Practice note: sequencing consents so closing does not slip

Priya RaghunathanDirector of Research6 min read

The problem

We keep coming back to sequencing consents so closing does not slip, because the cost of a miss here compounds across a portfolio.

What we do about 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.
