What to do with this result
Check management and pipeline capacity before approving the hiring cohort; bookings capacity alone does not prove headcount ROI.

Calculation method
For each remaining month, productivity = min(1, (month since start + 0.5) / ramp months). Sum quota / 12 × attainment × productivity across hires.
Assumptions and limitations
- Example inputs are editable scenarios, not Aryo results or independently verified industry benchmarks.
- Use matched cohorts and fully loaded costs. Attribution is an assumption, not evidence of incremental lift.
