PLENA Procurement Pack

Give legal and procurement a reason to say yes faster.

The procurement pack turns institutional interest into a lower-friction approval path: clear boundaries, security answers, data-flow language, draft legal terms, and implementation scope.

Positive definition

Use this paragraph wherever procurement or counsel needs to know what PlenaProof is.

PlenaProof is verified-receipt and case-readiness infrastructure for institutions. It helps teams organize evidence, route checks, preserve review trails, generate audit-ready packets, and issue portable verification receipts. PLENA outputs are designed to support, not replace, regulated review by qualified staff, licensed professionals, official bodies, or public authorities.

Procurement bundle contents

This page is not a substitute for final legal review. It gives procurement, legal, IT, and compliance teams the documents they expect before approving a pilot.

Security questionnaire

SIG-Lite / CAIQ-style short answers covering data minimization, access control, audit logging, retention, incident response, and AI-use boundaries.

Template · requires legal review

Data Processing Addendum

Draft GDPR-ready DPA shell: roles, purpose, subprocessors, international transfers, deletion, security measures, and data-subject request support.

Template · requires legal review

Master Services Agreement

Sample MSA terms: pilot scope, service boundaries, acceptable use, fees, confidentiality, public badge rules, suspension, and support.

Data-flow diagram

Plain-language map: institution submits case data, PlenaProof creates packet/receipt, verification link exposes only selected receipt fields.

Sub-processor list

Public list placeholder for hosting, email, analytics if any, payment provider if any, and AI provider only for non-trust-bearing assistance.

Implementation checklist

Roles, pilot workflow, user count, data classification, retention period, export format, badge placement, and renewal calendar.

PLENA Procurement Pack 1. Service type: verified-receipt and case-readiness infrastructure. 2. Trust boundary: outputs support human review; PlenaProof is not a law firm, bank, forensic laboratory, government agency, or emergency service. 3. Data posture: receipts travel; databases stay home. Verification links disclose selected receipt fields only. 4. AI posture: no generative AI should be used inside trust-bearing functions such as sealing, receipt hashing, archive status, or verification status. 5. Access model: institution defines admin, reviewer, intake, auditor, and observer roles during pilot scoping. 6. Audit model: each important action should create a timestamped event suitable for audit-pack export. 7. Procurement next step: define one workflow, one department, one reporting cycle, and one exportable output.

One-page data flow

  1. Institution creates case or intake queue.
  2. Staff attach or summarize evidence according to data-minimization rules.
  3. PLENA routes the case to the correct suite and creates a readiness record.
  4. Human reviewer approves, escalates, or marks missing items.
  5. Selected action creates a VRX-1-style receipt with a durable receipt handle.
  6. External party verifies only the receipt fields the institution makes public.

Sales-cycle rule: do not make legal teams hunt. Link this page from Trust Center, Pricing, Readiness Assessment, and Request Pilot.

AI governance alignment

PLENA receipts are designed to give you evidence in the vocabulary your governance teams already use. This is reference alignment, not certification.

NIST AI RMF · Govern

Documented roles, review responsibilities, and AI-use boundaries — the accountability trail your governance function can point to.

NIST AI RMF · Map

Receipts record where an AI-mediated step sat in a workflow and who was responsible for the human decision around it.

NIST AI RMF · Measure

Timestamped events make review rates, overrides, refusals, and deadlines countable for your own measurement.

NIST AI RMF · Manage

Exportable audit packs support incident review, escalation records, and board/regulator reporting.

Truth boundary. PlenaProof does not certify AI Act compliance, NIST compliance, GDPR compliance, or any regulatory compliance. References to the EU AI Act and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework describe the vocabulary PlenaProof helps you evidence — they are not claims of conformity, and they are not legal advice. Your own counsel and assessors determine compliance.

How PLENA relates to C2PA

PlenaProof does not replace C2PA / Content Credentials. C2PA describes how a piece of content was captured or edited — its provenance. PlenaProof adds the layer C2PA does not cover: who reviewed a case, who decided, who refused, who authorized, and what evidence a human had at the moment of an institutional decision.

Content provenance answers "where did this file come from?" PLENA answers "who took responsibility for what happened next?" The two are complementary, not competing.

Complement, not affiliation

PlenaProof is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified against C2PA, the Content Authenticity Initiative, or any standards body named on this page. These references describe where PLENA fits alongside tools you may already use.

Where PLENA fits — and where it does not compete

Tool categories institutions already run, and the distinct layer PlenaProof adds. Named tools are neutral category examples, not partners.

CategoryExample toolsWhat PlenaProof adds
Content provenanceC2PA / Content CredentialsHuman-review and institutional-decision receipts on top of file provenance.
E-signatureDocuSign-style signingA portable receipt of who reviewed and decided — not just who signed.
Credential verificationDegree / ID verification servicesA reusable receipt and refusal/non-response record across workflows, not a single lookup.
Audit & GRCInternal GRC platformsA portable, externally verifiable receipt format your auditors can check without your servers.
NotarizationOnline notary servicesAn institutional decision and review trail; PlenaProof does not notarize or confer legal status.

PlenaProof is not affiliated with any tool listed. PlenaProof does not adjudicate, certify, or confer official status — it records what happened and who reviewed it.

Status legend

What maturity labels across PLENA mean, so procurement can read every page the same way.

Sample / demo only Illustrative content, not real activity.

Public information surface A published page; no backend implied.

Client-side preview Runs in your browser; nothing is stored server-side.

Pilot-ready template A starting structure you configure during scoping.

Publicly active Live and reachable today.

No label on any PLENA page should be read as production deployment, official verification, legal certification, court acceptance, regulatory compliance, or an active partnership unless that specific page says so explicitly.

AI Oversight Receipts

PlenaProof adds Human Review Receipts, AI Harm Defense, AI Agent Action Receipts, and Proof of Human Agency so individuals and institutions can document who acted, who reviewed, who approved, and what evidence was available.

Sector AI Trust Suites

PLENA Sector AI Trust Suites add civilian sector-specific AI trust workflows for universities, churches, NGOs, legal aid, finance, publishers, employers, and government central services. Each route names the buyer’s standards vocabulary, human-review receipt logic, VRX-1 public verification, and exportable proof outputs.
