/arckit:uae-procurement generates a federal procurement strategy under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 11 of 2023 on Procurements in the Federal Government. Produces ITT / RFP packs aligned with the Ministry of Finance Digital Procurement Platform (DPP) templates, an In-Country Value (ICV) plan, the evaluation report structure, and the contract register.

Review Checklist
- Route to market matches Decree-Law 11/2023 thresholds and exemption criteria.
- ITT / RFP follows DPP template sections (no custom annexes that conflict with DPP requirements).
- ICV target is stated with measurement methodology.
- Evaluation weights add to 100% and are pre-published.
- Mandatory criteria (pass / fail) listed before scored criteria.
- Contract register schema captures KPIs and penalty regime.
- Procurement strategy and ICV plan handed off to SOBC.
Key Notes
- DPP alignment: All federal procurements above threshold are run through the MoF Digital Procurement Platform — the ITT / RFP pack must conform to DPP templates.
- ICV is mandatory: In-Country Value scoring is non-optional for many federal procurements — define the target before going to market.
- Evaluation parity: Use
/arckit:evaluateto drive the formal supplier evaluation against the methodology defined here. - Community-contributed: Output should be reviewed by qualified federal procurement counsel before reliance.
