Two pools. They are deliberately not added together: one is arithmetic on your own invoices, the other rests on a benchmark and needs a person to agree with it before it becomes money.

Every figure above is already discounted. Each dollar is multiplied by a capture haircut of 0.45 for the headline number and 0.75 for the base case, because theoretical leakage is not collectable leakage - contracts, relationships and timing block some of it. Before those haircuts these same findings total $695,520. The headline is the low number.

Can this data be trusted?

Data health grade A — 0 error-level and 0 warning-level problems; 100.0% of sales dollars have cost coverage; 0 SKUs excluded from dollar rules. The accompanying data_health.md lists every gap and assumption; read it before acting on any number here.

2. Top 20 opportunities

Ranked by annual value × confidence × how easily it can actually be collected. Dollars and confidence are shown separately, so a benchmark-based estimate can never hide inside a headline total.
