Give delivery a brief it can accept

Missing costs and unclear commitments can turn a promising enquiry into a difficult project. Inspect the estimate, available team time and proposed terms before the delivery lead accepts the work.

01 / HANDOFF DESIGN

What goes in. What comes out. Who decides.

Select a stage to inspect the records it needs, the work it prepares and the person who accepts or returns it. Follow a role link to try its own fictional example.

  1. Enquiry & fit (SAL.1) — Pursuit partner receives authorised enquiry and produces pursue, decline or clarify. The handoff is fit decision. Partner decides fit.
  2. Discovery (SAL.2) — Pursuit partner receives fit decision and stated need and produces bid / no-bid record. The handoff is qualified brief. Partner owns bid decision.
  3. Scope & fee (SAL.3) — Partner + finance receives qualified brief and cost inputs and produces approved proposal. The handoff is approved scope and economics. Finance and partner approve fee.
  4. Signed terms (SAL.4) — Authorised signatory receives approved proposal and negotiated terms and produces signed obligations. The handoff is signed obligations record. Signatory approves terms.
  5. Delivery accepts (DEL.1) — Engagement lead receives signed obligations and access needs and produces accepted delivery brief or return. This is the recorded outcome. Delivery lead accepts handoff.

Return path: Brief rejected / scope unclear sends work from Delivery accepts to Scope & fee.

02 / WHY ASSESS IT

What would make this worth changing?

Fewer scope returns and incomplete handoffs may protect partner time. A no-bid decision can be the right outcome.

MEASUREMENT BASIS

Records to inspect

Enquiry and consent, discovery, conflict/capacity check, approved cost, signed terms and delivery acceptance.

STOP / RETURN

Where it can fail

Conflict, weak economics or missing authority leads to no-bid. Delivery can reject an unusable brief and return it to the partner.

DESIGN ACCEPTANCE

Cases to test

Test fit, no-bid, missing cost, changed terms and rejected handoff; verify exact signed and received versions.

03 / SPECIALIST ROLES

Give each supporting role a clear job.

These candidate roles prepare specific parts of the work. Inspect the output and the reviewer before deciding whether a person, existing software, a rule or AI role is appropriate.
