    The adjustment usually costs less than expected

    8 minNo file attached in the prototype

    Shifting an extension visit schedule, adding a second consultation time, or translating a form into the language most applicants actually use are typically marginal design changes, not new budget lines. This lecture costs three such adjustments against a real programme budget to show how small the increment usually is.

  2. Block 2 · text

    State the cost against the gap it closes

    A costed adjustment presented beside the participation gap it is meant to close - not as an abstract 'inclusion cost' - is far easier for a budget officer to approve, because the return on the marginal spend is stated in the same breath as the spend itself.
