TIER III — NARRATIVE ARCHITECTURE
The record a buyer's diligence team confirms instead of challenges.
The Seller's Earnings File, built to the standard a Quality of Earnings review tests against. QoE engagements are published from $6,500 for limited scope to $20,000 and beyond in full form — and examine one gate. This is the work that decides what it finds. Scope defined by Tier I findings.

Prerequisite
Tier III engagement requires completion of Tier I. The structural foundation must be established before narrative is constructed. CIM architecture built on undocumented operations does not survive diligence. Engagement fee determined upon completion of Tier I Diagnostic.
Four Deliverables
What the engagement installs
01
Institutional-Grade CIM
Confidential Information Memorandum prepared under the Northbridge Standard. Reflects structural governance, not just financial recast.
02
Normalization Bridge
Converts owner-reported income into a defensible, transaction-ready earnings baseline — the same analysis a buyer's Quality of Earnings team performs, built from your side first.
03
Structural Valuation Summary
Valuation thesis anchored to structural conditions, not revenue alone. Defensible under buyer and lender scrutiny.
04
Earnings Defense Documentation
Supporting documentation for all normalization adjustments. Source-documented. Independently verifiable.
Scope follows structural evidence.
Tier I defines whether this engagement is appropriate and what must be addressed.
