Ajay wrote this. Everything below is what Corto can show about where it came from and whether it holds up — including what it cannot stand behind.
Where it came from
A goal Corto proposed has a reason it exists. This is that reason, with the record behind it.
No finding sits behind this one. It was written by its owner rather than proposed from the diagnosis, which is not a fault — but it means Corto cannot tell you why it exists, only whether it holds up.
It serves Bring the top four below two-thirds of billing without losing any of them, a department goal.
What Corto read
2Every record under every number in this goal — where it came from, how it was read, and when it was true.

Why these key results are enough
If every one of them lands, is the goal true? If the answer is no, the goal is measuring the wrong things.
Growth that costs its own margin is not growth. Volume up, conversion up, discount down — all three or the goal is not true.
Is it a good goal
5 of 5SMART, checked against the goal itself. Where Corto asks more than SMART does, it says so — it is not a badge, it is what was actually tested.
- S
Specific
holdsThe goal names a change, and leaves every number to its key results.
SMART asks a goal to be specific. Corto asks it to be specific WITHOUT a number in it, so the target can move without rewriting what the company is trying to do.
- M
Measurable
holdsAll 3 key results carry a start value, a target, a unit and the record they are read from.
SMART asks for a number. Corto asks WHERE THE NUMBER COMES FROM — the actual record — because a target nobody can read is not measurable, it is only numeric.
- A
Achievable
holds1 initiative is under it, and every key result reads from a record that exists.
Corto does not judge whether an ambition is realistic — that is the founder's to set. It checks the two things it can see: that somebody is working on it, and that the number can actually be read.
- R
Relevant
holdsIt serves “Bring the top four below two-thirds of billing without losing any of them”, which is Sales's.
SMART asks whether a goal matters. Corto asks WHAT IT SERVES, by name, all the way up to one of the three destinations — so relevance is a chain you can follow rather than an opinion.
- T
Time-bound
holdsIt runs to FY 2026-27, and nothing is scored before that period begins.
What Corto cannot stand behind
2Read this before you argue with anybody using the rest of the page. A case that states no limit is a sales sheet.
What Tally - party-wise sales ledgers, via the read-only agent cannot tell you

Assembled from records that already existed — the diagnosis, the interview, the derivation registry and the goal itself. Nothing on this page is written about the goal after the fact. The line to the destination
