Confirm the complete final version, attachments, signatories and applicable signing instructions. Recheck any change made since your last review.
Slow down at the last handover
Printing and arranging attendance can feel like routine steps after the drafting is done. Yet a missing schedule, old page or last-minute edit can change what is signed. Keep the agreed version easy to identify and ask anyone making changes to explain them. If you do not understand a correction, have it reviewed before approving the document rather than promising to fix it later.
Keep signing instructions with the approved document
If several people are involved, make sure each receives the same approved version and instructions. Check that referenced schedules and annexures are included in the set. If someone proposes an alteration at the last minute, identify it and obtain the necessary review before proceeding. Keep a record of the version that was actually executed.
Points to work through
- Keep the complete version with all referenced annexures.
- Resolve blanks and disputed entries before execution.
- Confirm the signatories and any representative authority.
- Ask which supporting records and execution arrangements are required.
The next step
Confirm the version with the person handling execution. Keep an approved copy and compare the completed document when you receive it.
Can I sign only the pages sent to me as screenshots?
