Change request CR-001 — extend DCF-1043 from 6 to 8 weeks

Case DCF-1043 · Webinar Lead Program · Northbridge Health (fictional, seeded)
Raised by Approver, when returning package v1 with Request changes
Reviewer note (verbatim, seed data) "Six weeks is too tight for hospital procurement cycles. Extend to 8 weeks and reprice."
Client confirmation Analyst-recorded: "client agreed on the call of 10 Nov (see call notes)" — labelled as analyst evidence, not client text
Decision Accepted; package v2 created and sent for a new review

1. What changes

Item v1 v2
Timeline requirement 6 weeks (from the brief) 8 weeks (edited with a reason; marked as an override of the brief)
Required delivery rate 1,500 ÷ 6 = 250 leads/week 1,500 ÷ 8 = 187.5 leads/week
Pricing priced on 6 weeks re-priced on 8 weeks (new pricing run, same rate card)
Package v1, status changes requested v2, new hash, awaiting approval

2. Impact analysis

Area Impact Handled by
Requirements Timeline no longer matches the brief → must carry a reason and an override flag FR-05 (versioned edit with reason)
Capacity Lower weekly rate; the capacity check is re-run on the new pricing FR-08
Pricing v1 pricing is stale against the confirmed timeline → package gate blocks until re-priced FR-09 (pricing target must match the confirmed requirement)
Package v2 is a new frozen snapshot with its own hash; v1 and its review note stay unchanged FR-11, FR-21 (append-only)
Approval No approval carries over; v2 needs a new review, and the reviewer sees a diff (timeline 6 → 8) plus the previous note FR-10, FR-11
Execution Nothing was authorized for v1, so no external system is touched FR-14
Audit Edit, re-pricing, new package and both reviews are audit events with request IDs FR-21
