Caveat carried with the number
Locked and signed, but the method carries extrapolation error that is not removed. Treat the figure as a range, not a point.

Internal audit could not trace part of the realized figure to a driver. The untraced amount stays in the variance column.

What this record is, and what it is not

A benefit realization ledger reconciled to a general ledger needs the customer’s actual baseline figures and account structure. Modeled numbers demonstrate the instrument and prove nothing about the business case.

The measurement window ran FY24 Q4, thirteen weeks over a sample of 108. That sample size is on the page because a baseline drawn from twelve cases and one drawn from forty thousand are not the same instrument, and averaging them into a single confidence figure would hide which one you are looking at.

3 of 5 cash lines resting on this baseline carry a journal reference. A benefit line with no journal reference has not touched the general ledger, so it is shown as claimed rather than counted as realized cash.
