# How should the interviews be conducted?


Send each expert a short, redacted decision brief: the recruitment task, current subscriptions, unresolved gap, intended workflow and decision deadline. Do not send confidential shortlists or contracts without permission.

For every substantive response, ask for:

1. **One concrete example:** anonymised where necessary.
2. **One counterexample:** when the proposed approach would fail or add little.
3. **One inspectable artefact:** a coverage manifest, validation report, sample export, workflow diagram or relevant clause.
4. **One boundary:** what the evidence does not establish.

Label resulting evidence consistently: **publicly documented**, **supplier-claimed**, **verified within the authorised sample**, or **unknown**. Never promote a sample result into a platform-wide conclusion.
