How do I run this job?
Prepare the materials
Original draft, counterparty revision, approved negotiation positions and the represented party; identify the version of each file. Use only an approved tool and authorized material. Identify unreadable pages and missing versions before continuing.
Produce the draft
Return each original/revised clause, proposed response, approved basis and unresolved decision. Distinguish accepting the change from drafting an alternative. Produce text proposals, not an assumed tracked-changes file.
Check the result
Use a document comparison to verify every actual change before sending. Check that comments do not disclose internal fallback positions. Check every output against the original material and relevant amendments.
