Why it matters

A single document that answers every LPA question.

  • Demonstrates whole-market search — not a single-supplier decision.
  • Shows comparable, standardised quotations — not incomparable emails.
  • Documents due diligence on the selected provider and scheme.
  • Records the decision rationale, so it survives scrutiny at appeal.
  • Provides a time-stamped audit trail suitable for legal review.
