1. Identify the authoritative buyer source
Can the team point to the source material that drives each relevant requirement?
Draft complete should be the beginning of the final review, not the release verdict. This checklist makes the final control questions explicit.
Can the team point to the source material that drives each relevant requirement?
Are the buyer requirements represented clearly enough to review coverage and changes?
Is it clear who owns each decision and whether it is ready, under review or blocked?
Can material claims still point to the approved proof that supports them?
Is the response tied to the relevant requirement rather than reviewed as isolated prose?
Are unresolved review gaps named as decisions instead of hidden in memory or scattered notes?
Is the candidate being released the same candidate that passed the final control review?
