Thinking

Done: seven steps

The tender asks for three things: a technical proposal, a price and credentials. None depends on the others, so all three can run at once. First read the tender; at the end, lay it out, review it, and let the owner set the timeline.

Think first, then plan

What can run at once, runs at once

Each step goes to the AI employee in charge
