# Lead Followup Timing Consistency Check

## Inputs
The new lead list with created times, the first-touch activity log and the response time commitment.

## Workflow
1. List new leads with their creation timestamps.
2. Match each lead to its first-touch activity and elapsed time.
3. Flag leads first touched outside the committed window.
4. Return the timing map without contacting leads.

## Output contract
Lead | created | first touch | elapsed | in window | reviewer

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional week: 25 new leads; 18 got a first touch within 1 business day and 7 waited 3 or more days. Flag 7 leads.

## Review gates
Re-check elapsed time in business hours before flagging. The check surfaces the gap; it never messages the lead.
