Contract management

Through a public contract's whole life, the buyer and the supplier, and agents acting under either's mandate, work from one shared record: milestones and their acceptance criteria, deliveries with evidence, acceptance or rejection with reasons, invoices matched to accepted work, payments confirmed by the buyer's payment system, performance against agreed measures, change requests decided with reasons, and contract notices published on the Central Digital Platform. Every decision that affects the supplier carries its reasons and can be disputed to a named reviewer.
