## More time for the idea, less for the dossier around it

### Twelve award criteria and 50 pages before the idea exists

Ziva sets chapter, points and page budget for every criterion. You see where the points are before the concept starts.

Screenshot: Bid outline in Ziva: chapters, points and page budget per award criterion of the regiosuisse mandate, with sources.

### The idea is yours. The dossier around it eats the time for it.

Ziva drafts each chapter in the buyer’s outline and page frame, in Word. You write the idea into it.

Screenshot: Draft of chapter 1.1 on understanding the brief in Ziva, saved as a Word file in the Project.

### Contradictions in the specification cost points if nobody asks

Ziva lists each contradiction with its source and drafts the forum questions. Your own decisions are listed apart.
