## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Government Procurement & Tendering](https://ailawframework.com/practice/government-procurement-and-tendering.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the dates and documents the lawyer enters, list each event in order, with the document name and the page. Do not draft a protest ground and do not state that a filing is timely. |
| What the lawyer must review | FAR 3.104-3(a) provides that a person described in paragraph (a)(2) must not, other than as provided by law, knowingly disclose contractor bid or proposal information or source selection information before the award of a Federal agency procurement contract to which the information relates. Paragraph (b) provides that a person must not, other than as provided by law, knowingly obtain that information before award. FAR 15.306(e) provides that government personnel involved in the acquisition shall not favor one offeror over another, reveal an offeror's technical solution or, without that offeror's permission, its price, subject to the exceptions stated in that paragraph, reveal the names of individuals providing past-performance references, or knowingly furnish source selection information in violation of FAR 3.104 and 41 U.S.C. 2102 and 2107. The chronology is an internal file. The lawyer decides whether any protest is filed and what it says. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: From the dates and documents the lawyer enters, list each event in order, with the document name and the page. Do not draft a protest ground and do not state that a filing is timely.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- The chronology does not apply a protest filing deadline. No deadline was taken from 4 C.F.R. part 21 for this entry.
- Contractor bid or proposal information and source selection information stay in the system the lawyer names.
