Questions
about the workflow.
Is this legal advice?
No. It organizes the contract record and flags issues for your contracts/legal team to review.
Can it compare versions?
Yes. It can identify deltas between solicitation, amendment, award, and mod language.
Does it support post-award?
Yes. The same extracted obligations become the starting point for post-award oversight.
