Why this Ken exists

Problem, timing, and public value

Smaller jurisdictions often reuse brittle templates and do not have time to audit every draft manually.

Public technology contracts keep getting more complex while local review teams stay small.

Improves public procurement quality and makes bidding requirements easier for smaller vendors to understand.

Allocation voice

Assign scarce voice credits to this Ken

Stronger support costs disproportionately more than broad support. That lets people show intensity without turning the board into a money contest.
