NDA available before file transfer
We can complete an NDA before non-public documents are shared. The service agreement or statement of work then records the approved scope, responsibilities, and file-handling terms.
Security & confidentiality
Agree on file access and handling before non-public documents are shared.
The first review begins with public information. If the approved work requires non-public project files, the workspace, access, and handling terms are agreed before transfer.
Start without sending project files
Send the public contract or award number, project stage, deadline, and a short description of the task. That is enough for the first review and proposal.
Client-approved workspace
We agree the workspace before transfer. Where practical, work remains in a client-approved workspace rather than moving through unapproved channels.
Access limited to the engagement
Only the people named for the engagement receive access to project files. Access can be reviewed before any documents are shared.
Storage and transfer terms
The proposal identifies the approved workspace and the storage, sharing, and transmission controls available for the engagement.
Retention and deletion
Retention and deletion terms are set in the written engagement. When work is complete, we can confirm which files were delivered and the agreed treatment of working copies.
Information we do not accept
Do not send login credentials, classified information, Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), export-controlled data, or restricted personal information. If a document may contain any of these, contact us before sharing it.
