How to use it

  1. Send during bidding so exclusions or unavailable coverage can be discussed before award.
  2. Request agent contact details and policy evidence through a secure submission route.
  3. Revalidate selected bidders before work starts because a bid-stage certificate may no longer be current.

Example in practice

A roofing bidder discloses that it hires a separate crew for torch work. That changes the review questions for both the roofing policy and the lower-tier company.

Limit requests to information needed for the evaluation, and manage confidential claims or underwriting records through an approved process.
