- tender documents and a query register.

Input checklist for this project
- Start with tender documents and a query register. Keep file names and revision dates intact.
- Include an example that demonstrates gaps that cannot be resolved from the documents.
- Share anonymised samples for initial discussion and identify the owner of the originals.
Questions to answer together
- Which source is authoritative, and which version applies?
- Can a complete example and an incomplete example be supplied?
- Who can approve sharing the files and explain their fields?
What to have at the end
An input register with file names, versions, owners and missing information.
Record the decision on gaps that cannot be resolved from the documents alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
