FINANCE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Review authorized scopes of work, proposed quantities, unit prices, and draft bid totals with the source, context, and next decision in view.

For authorized work involving authorized scopes of work, proposed quantities, unit prices, and draft bid totals, prepare a line-item estimate from a supplied project scope for an estimator to reconcile. Document extraction can omit work or misread quantities, and an estimate can become a commercial commitment. Check every item, unit, allowance, tax, and safety requirement against the original scope, protect client documents, and require an authorized estimator to approve the complete bid before sharing. Explain information use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.

Set currency, period, tax, duplicate, rounding, and discrepancy checks.

Restrict and expire financial copies

Use least-privilege access and remove temporary documents when no longer required.

Keep financial decisions human-led

Do not transfer, charge, trade, file, or make a consequential recommendation without qualified approval.
