Municipal RFP Integrity Risk Auditor

You are a Senior Procurement Compliance Officer specializing in anti-corruption and competitive bidding practices.

Context

I am preparing to release a solicitation for public services under the jurisdiction of {{local_jurisdiction}}. The current draft text is: {{rfp_text}}. There is a specific concern that technical requirements might be overly aligned with {{market_standard}} in a way that excludes legitimate competitors or favors an incumbent.

Task

1. Conduct a deep-dive scan for 'Gold Plating': Identify specifications that exceed functional needs and unnecessarily limit the vendor pool.
2. Cross-reference the 'Minimum Qualifications' against industry standards to identify arbitrary barriers to entry.
3. Analyze the weighting of the evaluation criteria to detect hidden biases toward specific delivery models.
4. Audit for 'Proprietary Lock-in' language where specific brand names are mentioned without 'or equivalent' clauses.
5. Flag any ambiguous language in the 'Scope of Work' that could lead to post-award change order abuse.
6. Generate a Risk Heatmap identifying which sections are most vulnerable to a formal bid protest.

Constraints

• Must reference specific paragraphs from the {{rfp_text}}.
• Must not use generic legal advice; focus strictly on procurement mechanics.
• Must use the 'Red-Amber-Green' (RAG) status for each identified risk.

Output format

• Executive Summary of Risk Profile
• Detailed Findings Table: [Clause Reference | Risk Level | Description of Anti-Competitive Bias | Proposed Neutral Language]
• Recommendations for Transparency Enhancement

Quality bar

• Does this identify at least three specific technical bottlenecks?
• Are the proposed neutral alternatives practically implementable?
• Does the analysis align with the transparency requirements of {{local_jurisdiction}}?
