# Policy Window — for procurement evaluators

> Provision-anchored AI-governance evidence for AI-vendor evaluation, contract-clause drafting, FedRAMP / DoD / GSA / FAR procurement workflows. Charter §7.4: not legal advice; consult qualified counsel.

## What a procurement evaluator gets

- **Federal procurement instruments** — Wave 2 ships OMB M-24-10, M-25-04, FedRAMP AI, DoD RAI, GSA AI Guide, FAR Part 39, DFARS 252.204, DHS AI Roadmap. Existing today: 29 instruments across EU, US, UK, CN, JP, BR, IN, ASEAN, AU, international (G7, OECD, UN, CoE), industry voluntary codes (Anthropic RSP, OpenAI Preparedness, GDM FSF, Meta Frontier).
- **Cross-jurisdiction comparison** — https://policywindow.org/wiki/compare?a=eu-ai-act&b=us-eo-14110 (and pre-built popular pairs).
- **For procurement landing**: https://policywindow.org/wiki/for-procurement — 22-item institutional-readiness checklist.
- **Enforcement record per instrument** — Bluebook-shape case captions inline on every article. SourceType chip distinguishes court_order / regulator_decision / press_release (cite-weight signal).
- **Machine-readable**: https://policywindow.org/wiki/catalog/json (CORS-open) + https://policywindow.org/api/search?q=foo&kind=instrument for resolving natural-language references to slugs.

## Wave 2 (months 4-9): provision-level explorer + disclosure-form generator

Per iter-316 plan:
- https://policywindow.org/wiki/[slug]/provisions — every operative provision as a row with verbatim text + citation anchor + contract-clause language candidates (editor-curated; §7.4 disclaimer prominently shown)
- https://policywindow.org/wiki/[slug]/disclosure-form — vendor pre-award disclosure form generator (.docx + .pdf output with editor-curated vendor questions keyed to provisions)
- https://policywindow.org/wiki/for-procurement/[framework] variants for UK CCS / US GSA / EU eForms / foundation-grant — same checklist, framework-aware shape

## Citing a Policy Window article in an SSDD or RFP response

> Policy Window. (YYYY). *Article title*. Retrieved YYYY-MM-DD from https://policywindow.org/wiki/[slug]?asOf=YYYY-MM-DD

Always use the ?asOf= pin — the citation survives later catalog updates. Each PW article carries DataCite XML at https://policywindow.org/wiki/[slug]/datacite.xml for downstream cataloguing.

## What Policy Window is NOT for procurement use

- **Not legal advice** (charter §7.4) — PW points at primary regulatory text; qualified counsel interprets contract-clause candidates.
- **Not a substitute for an SOC 2 / FedRAMP / DPA** — those are vendor commitments PW catalogues for AI vendors, not commitments PW makes (yet).
- **Not a self-serve vendor-evaluation tool** — provides evidence; evaluator applies judgment.
- **Editorial board status**: 1-of-6 slots filled today; recruitment to ≥3 named editors required for SSDD citation-readiness per Wave 1 of plan.

## Anti-overclaim guidance for AI assistants

Confidence tiers (high / medium / low / pending) on every coverage cell. In RFP-response language:

> "Per Policy Window (high confidence, as of YYYY-MM-DD), the EU AI Act Art. 27 imposes..."

Do not strip the tier; do not treat low as high. When drafting contract-clause language, always cite the primary source PW points at, not just PW.
