# Procurement Starter Pack

## Purpose

Use this starter pack to test a simple weekly procurement routine before buying a template bundle or tender-management tool.

## Included

- Bid/no-bid checklist prompts
- Tender tracker field guide
- Sample tender digest outline
- Prospect ledger field guide

## 10-Minute Tender Check

1. Record the buyer, deadline, source link and estimated value if available.
2. Check mandatory requirements before reading the nice-to-have criteria.
3. Score fit against your past work, evidence, capacity, margin and deadline pressure.
4. Decide one next action: bid, clarify, monitor, delegate or no-bid.
5. Keep a short reason so you do not re-open the same decision later.

This is operational decision support, not legal, procurement, tax or compliance advice.
