## 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: From the executed contract, extract every obligation, milestone, deliverable, KPI, reporting duty, insurance and security requirement, option and notice period into the entity’s plan template, with the clause reference and the responsible officer field left for the entity to complete.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer checks the obligations register against the contract, sets the risk ratings and escalation points, confirms notice periods and option dates are right, and decides what the business area must do and when.
- 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. Check every extracted obligation against its clause.
2. Confirm option and notice dates independently from the executed contract.
3. Confirm the plan names an owner for every obligation before it is approved.

## 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.
