Checkout audit packets that survive prime contractor review
How to structure packet outputs so they are trusted by procurement, compliance, and reporting teams without manual reconstruction.
Packet core schema
- Capture order identifiers, timestamps, and buyer organization context.
- Attach clause and threshold decisions at line-item granularity.
- Store source references for supplier and product evidence fields.
Distribution format
- Provide both human-readable and JSON export representations.
- Embed integrity hash and generation timestamp in every artifact.
- Use stable field names so downstream systems can parse consistently.
Review operations
- Define exception statuses and closure reasons in packet metadata.
- Track who approved and when for each control gate.
- Retain packet revisions as append-only records.
