Use When

• The SaaS bid is at procurement, legal review, security review, or BAFO stage.
• The buyer is regulated (financial services, insurance, public sector, healthcare) and the security questionnaire is rigorous.
• The agency must produce a Trust and Compliance section as a standalone document.
• The contract negotiation requires DPA, MSA, SLA template language.

Do Not Use When

• The engagement is not SaaS-related.
• The buyer's procurement has no security or compliance scrutiny (rare for premium engagements).
