## 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 | Work with the lawyer on the record: assemble the value, scope, market history and supporting documents, set out the condition or exemption the lawyer has selected, and help draft the statement of circumstances and the value-for-money record under the lawyer's direction. Do not select the condition or exemption and do not assert that it is satisfied. |
| What the lawyer must review | Select the condition or exemption, decide whether the facts actually meet it rather than merely sit near it, test the value-for-money conclusion independently, and confirm the reportable code and the reporting deadline before the record goes to the delegate. |
| Written for / versions | 1 jurisdiction versions below |

## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Trace relied-on content to independent sources and check for relevant material the output has missed.

- What the AI does: Work with the lawyer on the record: assemble the value, scope, market history and supporting documents, set out the condition or exemption the lawyer has selected, and help draft the statement of circumstances and the value-for-money record under the lawyer's direction. Do not select the condition or exemption and do not assert that it is satisfied.
- What the lawyer does: Select the condition or exemption, decide whether the facts actually meet it rather than merely sit near it, test the value-for-money conclusion independently, and confirm the reportable code and the reporting deadline before the record goes to the delegate.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a court classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Confirm the instructions, the jurisdiction and the complete relevant material before starting.
2. Select the condition or exemption, decide whether the facts actually meet it rather than merely sit near it, test the value-for-money conclusion independently, and confirm the reportable code and the reporting deadline before the record goes to the delegate.
3. Check the output against the source documents named in it before it is relied on.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
