Funding and implementation questions
Evidence gap: A current state-funded expansion grant, district budget, and purchase-specific eligibility were not verified.
Agency / district next step: Start with approved local program needs and confirm the funding cycle and implementation capacity.

What is still needed before sizing revenue?
No buyer, available budget, price, contract or sales probability has been verified in this planner. State allocations cannot be treated as Pearson’s addressable revenue.
Obtain validated quantities, net prices, contract term, delivery scope and costs. Distinguish contract value, annual recurring revenue where applicable and Finance-recognized revenue. Agree attribution across Pearson teams so the same opportunity is counted once.
