A diagnostic for oversight teams who need an independent, evidence-based answer on whether a vendor has delivered the milestones and evidence its contract requires. The result is a recorded baseline against which later oversight cycles are measured.
The 13 sections
A repeatable method that turns contracts, scope documents, milestone evidence and issue logs into an obligation register and a graded evidence inventory. Defined measures for acceptance, evidence coverage, control exceptions and unresolved findings. A decision rule with four possible verdicts. An options comparison that separates cash, timing and capacity effects. Execution, governance and KPI tables with named owner roles. A labeled synthetic case, a failure case and a practice exercise. Copyable tools, including the register, the inventory, a questionnaire, a clinic challenge log and a review record.
