Strategic briefing #002: the five questions that expose weak control
The signal
In high-demand procurement, risk rarely says “I’m risk.”
It shows up as vagueness, urgency, and resistance to being pinned down.
So here’s a simple control: ask questions that force the deal into a written shape.
The five questions
Use these before you commit:
- What exactly is the deliverable—and what is explicitly excluded?
- What is the verification path, and when does it happen?
- If verification fails, what happens automatically?
- Who is accountable end-to-end?
- What’s the most common failure mode—and what’s your contingency?
If someone can’t answer these cleanly, you’re not buying certainty.
You’re financing uncertainty.
