Create your first useful output

Before you start

• Use the signed contract details where available, including the correct form and edition.
• Have the project reference, parties, important dates and the people responsible for review ready.
• Gather the strongest contemporaneous records first: notices, instructions, programmes, correspondence, meeting records, site records and cost evidence.

Follow the core workflow

1. 1Complete your personal and company setup, then confirm the workspace subscription.
2. 2Create a project using the signed contract details rather than assumptions or tender-stage information.
3. 3Record the event while the facts, dates, recipients and immediate effects are still clear.
4. 4Open the event workspace and add files, pasted text or notes.
5. 5Wait for each source to become ready and select only the material relevant to the task.
6. 6Ask focused questions or choose a clear creation action such as Build case file, Draft claim or Create timeline.
7. 7Open the completed output, resolve unsupported points, complete professional review and export the approved version.

What a good first result looks like

A useful first output does not need to prove the whole claim. It should organise confirmed facts, identify the likely contractual route to verify, show the evidence used, expose contradictions and list the information still required.
