A well-prepared EDGE application connects the business objective, activity rules, provider scope, budget, company information and planned evidence. Assign each item an internal owner before submission.
Checkmarks are temporary and reset when this page reloads. Use print to keep a copy.
Make the proposal easy to verify
Read the proposal, quotation and intended application side by side. They should tell the same story about what will be delivered, by whom, during which period and at what cost.
Assign responsibility for the internal work too. Data cleanup, customer access, staff training and management decisions can affect whether the provider’s work produces the intended result.
Start the evidence file before delivery
Record what proof is required for each deliverable and who will retain it. Keep supplier invoices, payment records and project outputs linked to the approved scope.
A complete payment trail and a complete delivery trail answer different questions. Both are needed when the relevant activity requires them.
