Frequently asked questions
Is one document checklist valid for every government bid?
No. This is a control framework. The current solicitation, amendments, and official portal instructions define the required documents for each opportunity.
What should happen when an amendment is issued?
Add it to the source set, identify changed requirements and dates, update assigned work, verify acknowledgment rules, and recheck the final package.
