Begin with the decision

Clarify what the team must decide: shortlist a material, approve a specification, compare presentations or review a released lot. The document request should serve that decision.

Separate the layers

Catalog summaries support discovery. Configuration records help define what may be supplied. Lot-specific records support conclusions about the identified lot.

  • Discovery context
  • Configuration definition
  • Released-lot evidence

Record what remains open

A useful review preserves unresolved method, accreditation, coverage and commercial questions instead of smoothing them into a universal quality statement.
