🔑 What Evaluators & Inspectors Look For

• Specific commitments: numbers, timelines, owners, partners.
• Outcomes data: TOMs/SROI metrics, satisfaction, retention, carbon reductions.
• Case studies: challenge ➜ action ➜ outcome with quotes or before/after data.
• Governance: dashboards, board minutes, public “you said, we did.”

📖 Case Study Structure (Use in Bids)

1. Context: local need/problem statement.
2. Action: what you did; who was involved.
