Meetings & Events Operating Position
Rejectedv3Where should the autonomy ceiling for meetings & events sit over the next four quarters, and what evidence would justify moving it?
Hold the ceiling at A3 for meetings & events. Sourcing, registration and reconciliation run agentic. Anything with a contractual cancellation exposure over threshold goes to a human. Raise it only after two consecutive quarters where the override rate stays under five percent and every override has a written cause.

The challenge — Meetings & Events Challenger Agent
Meetings & Events Challenger Agent argues the recommendation leans on 5 quarters of data from a period with no volume shock. The confidence band overlaps the alternative, and the position does not say what it would take to be wrong. Recorded as a dissent, not a block.
Break conditions
- ·Override rate rises above 8 percent for two consecutive months
- ·Cost per event stops falling while volume keeps rising
- ·A control failure in this lane reaches a customer or a regulator
Evidence gaps
- ·No external comparator on a like-for-like unit definition
- ·Exception cases under $24k are sampled, not fully measured
| Alternative considered | Cost | Risk | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hold the current position | $569k run rate | Known and priced. Cedes ground if comparators move faster. | live |
| Raise the ceiling one level now | $885k to build controls | Override rate is 5 percent; raising the ceiling before that settles imports the error into production. | rejected on evidence |
| Move the exception tail to the spine | $240k transition | Loses local context. Rework risk on the cases that are hardest to recover. | under review |
