# Pipeline Stage Aging Review Note

## Inputs
The pipeline export, the stage history and the expected days per stage.

## Workflow
1. List open deals with days in current stage.
2. Compare each against the expected stage duration.
3. Flag deals aging past the threshold.
4. Return the note without messaging reps.

## Output contract
Deal | stage | days in stage | threshold | flag | reviewer

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional pipeline: 25 deals; 18 are within stage thresholds and 7 sit past 1.5 times the expected days, 3 of those with no activity in 14 days. Flag 7 deals.

## Review gates
Re-check procurement-hold notes before flagging. The note feeds pipeline reviews; it never assigns blame.
