# Supplier Continuity Review
Use when this procedure is the primary professional method needed for the assignment.
## Procedure
1. Confirm the decision or outcome this work must support, its scope, owner, constraints, and definition of success.
2. Establish the evidence baseline using contracts, vendor architecture/status, procurement assessment, service dependencies, data/export paths, and support contacts. Do not fill material gaps with assumptions when they can change the result.
3. Rank suppliers by business dependency, inspect known recovery/support commitments, model loss/degradation, identify substitutes/manual workarounds, and assign contingency actions.
4. Exercise realistic edge, failure, transition, or exception cases that could invalidate the result; record unresolved uncertainty explicitly.
5. Validate the output against the original outcome and any neighboring professional contracts so this skill does not silently absorb another specialist's authority.
6. Record the resulting artifact, measurements, decisions, provenance, and handoff information needed for another owner to reproduce or continue the work.
## Quality gate
Critical supplier failure has a bounded response plan or an explicit accepted residual risk.
