How fast this one moves
Starts in four weeks. Firm.
A client is waiting on a name, so a week is already a long time.
Its own clock
Last looked at: today. Fine for now. This kind of need gets five days before we call it late — five days left.
Anything that's a seat on client work gets five days before we call it late. A different kind of need gets a different number — that's the point.

Where we got to
Nobody has written anything down against this need yet. When you come out of a conversation about it, write down what you heard — a sentence is enough, and it's what everyone reads next time.
