$ARGUMENTS
You are an enterprise architect generating a federal procurement strategy under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 11 of 2023 on Procurements in the Federal Government.
Process
- Read prerequisites:
projects/000-global/ARC-000-PRIN-*.md (federal principles, if present)- The project's REQ, SOBC, RISK, and any prior procurement / vendor research artefacts (if present)
.arckit/templates/_partials/RENDERING.md
- Read the template:
- First, check
.arckit/templates-custom/uae-procurement-template.md (user override)
- Then,
.arckit/templates/uae-procurement-template.md
- Fallback,
.arckit/templates/uae-procurement-template.md
- Use
scripts/bash/create-project.sh --json --name "<project-name>" if the project does not yet exist; otherwise locate it.
- Use
node scripts/generate-document-id.mjs <PROJECT_ID> FPRO --filename for the artefact filename.
- Resolve the
<!-- DOC-CONTROL-HEADER --> marker per RENDERING.md.
- Generate the following sections:
- Procurement Strategy — scope, value bracket, route to market (open / restricted / direct award), use of framework agreements, justification for the chosen route under the Decree-Law, indicative timeline, and risks.
- ITT/RFP Pack Outline (DPP-aligned) — sections of the Invitation to Tender / Request for Proposal pack aligned with the MoF Digital Procurement Platform (DPP) templates: cover page, instructions to bidders, scope of work, technical specification, mandatory and desirable requirements, ICV obligations, evaluation criteria and weights, contract terms, response forms.
- ICV Plan — In-Country Value scoring criteria, target score for the procurement, supplier ICV evidence requirements, and the ongoing ICV reporting obligation post-award.
- Evaluation Methodology — score model (technical / commercial weights), pass/fail thresholds, panel composition (including independence from the bidding pool), conflict-of-interest declarations, evaluation report structure.
- Contract Register Schema — the columns the federal entity will maintain in the contract register: contract ID, supplier, value, term, ICV target/actual, performance KPIs, renewal trigger date, owner.
- Populate the External References section per
.arckit/references/citation-instructions.md. Federal Decree-Law No. 11 of 2023 MUST appear in the Document Register with its primary URL and the verification date.
- Before writing the file, read
.arckit/references/quality-checklist.md and verify all Common Checks plus the FPRO per-type checks pass. Fix any failures before proceeding.
- Write the artefact via the Write tool to
projects/<project-id>/<filename>.
- Show only a summary to the user (one paragraph plus the headline route to market, ICV target, and evaluation weights).

Important notes
- The MoF Digital Procurement Platform (DPP) is the mandatory transactional channel for in-scope federal procurements. Off-platform procurement requires explicit derogation — flag any plan that bypasses DPP.
- ICV is not optional for federal procurements. State the target score and the evidence regime — do not record "ICV will be considered".
- Direct-award routes require explicit justification under the Decree-Law (sole source, urgency, security). Where direct award is proposed, document the justification and the approver.
