INSPECT THE WORK

Follow the evidence. Then examine the change.

Inspect a prepared Proposal Review finding, then explore a separate six-week pilot through its recommendation, source evidence and proposed change. Both examples are separate from the pursuit video.

Prepared example. No customer upload or live AI run.

01 / RECOMMENDATION

Start with the decision, not the draft.

Read the source, distinguish the interpretation, and identify what needs to be confirmed before choosing a direction.

“Proposal approvals take too long.”SOURCE

The supplied note also records missing commercial inputs and unclear approval ownership.

INTERPRETATION · TO CONFIRM

The bottleneck may involve decisions and handoffs, rather than writing speed alone.

Next decision

Confirm ownership and the pilot objective before selecting the response.

02 / PROPOSAL REVIEW

See the gap. Check the correction.

Compare a supplied requirement with a proposal excerpt. Examine the gap and a transition plan template your team can complete.

ILLUSTRATIVE PROPOSAL REVIEW · FR-001

A requirement. A gap. A correction you can complete.

Supplied requirement

Include a transition plan with named owners and milestone dates.

Sample bid requirements · Section 4.2

Proposal excerpt

Transition activities will be agreed after award.

Sample proposal · Page 8

Finding · High priority

The excerpt does not identify the owners or milestone dates requested.

Suggested correction

Add a transition plan naming the owner and target date for each milestone. Complete the missing details before deciding whether the requirement has been met.

Transition plan template · details to complete
MilestoneNamed ownerTarget date
[Name the milestone][Name the owner][Set the date]

Suggested wording, not applied. Missing details still require your decision.

Illustrative example using invented sample material. Not customer work or a live product result.

03 / CHANGE IMPACT

See what the shorter schedule affects.

The request changes from six weeks to four and removes specialist coverage. Examine the affected work before treating the original promise as unchanged.

A request changes the work.
