Dispute Outcome Tracking & Reporting

Dispute Outcome Tracking & Reporting

Available from v0.1.44

This feature enables agencies to record the final adjudicated outcome of each dispute and aggregate those outcomes into actionable reports — helping teams understand where deductions succeed, where they fail, and why.


Overview

Once a dispute reaches an adjudication decision, the outcome can be recorded directly against the dispute record. These outcomes flow into an agency-level reporting dashboard that highlights patterns across all disputes, providing a data-driven foundation for agent training and policy improvements.


Recording an Outcome

For each adjudicated dispute, the following fields can be captured:

FieldDescription
Amount AwardedThe monetary amount granted by the adjudicator (may be zero, partial, or full)
Award TypeOne of: Full Landlord Award, Partial Award, or Tenant Wins
Adjudicator ReasoningNotes or categorised tags describing the stated basis for the decision

Outcome records are append-only and immutable once saved — they cannot be edited after submission to preserve audit integrity.


Agency-Level Reporting

The reporting view aggregates all recorded outcomes across an agency's disputes and surfaces the following metrics:

Win/Loss Breakdown

A summary of how disputes resolved, split by award type:

  • Total disputes with a full landlord award
  • Total disputes resulting in a partial award
  • Total disputes where the tenant won

Average Award Amounts

The mean award value across all disputes (and per award type) over a configurable time period. Useful for benchmarking deduction amounts against realistic adjudication outcomes.

Common Adjudicator Reasoning

A frequency view of the reasoning categories logged across outcomes — highlighting the most cited justifications for both successful and unsuccessful claims. This is particularly useful for identifying:

  • Evidence gaps that frequently cost landlords awards
  • Claim types that are consistently upheld
  • Language or framing issues in deduction notices

Use Cases

  • Agent training — use outcome patterns to coach agents on which evidence types and deduction categories perform best at adjudication
  • Policy improvement — identify systematic weaknesses in how deductions are documented or communicated
  • Benchmarking — compare average awards to claimed amounts to refine future deduction strategies

Scope & Limitations

  • Outcome tracking applies to disputes that have reached a formal adjudication stage
  • The dispute submission and evidence upload flows are unchanged
  • Reporting is scoped to agency level; individual property or tenancy drill-down is not available in this release
