The "Audit" Gap
In the financial world, if a company says they made $1M, they have to Prove it. An independent auditor checks their bank stamps. If they lie, they go to jail.
In the AEC world, if an architect says they "Designed that tower," Nobody checks. There is zero audit trail. This is why the industry is full of "Signal Fraud."
The "Mark-to-Market" Professional
Imagine if your career was "Mark-to-Market" every year.
- You provide your project list.
- The system checks the Verification Stamps from your consultants.
- Your "Market Value" is adjusted based on verified throughput.
This would eliminate the "Imposter" problem instantly. It would also eliminate the "Undervalued" problem—where a genius at a small firm is ignored because they don't have a "Brand."
