# Turn a Research Brief into Slides and Speaker Notes

Authored ToolFlowKit practice material. These records are teaching examples, not customer data, current vendor offers, or measured software results.

## What does the supplier slide outline need to retain?

The presentation should not call one supplier cheapest while the underlying amounts remain incomparable. The storyline can still be useful by obtaining agreement on the questions and buying criteria.

Use this authored outline as the compact review version; the six-part example below can serve a longer meeting. In Canva, create a presentation from a current template and copy the reviewed content, or use the currently documented in-Doc slides route. The discontinued Docs to Decks conversion button is not a required step. Check layout and source notes in the resulting editor file.

| Part | Audience job | Evidence to retain |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Decision and requirement | Understand what must be bought | Quantity, specification, destination |
| Available offers | See the candidates | Dated quote IDs |
| Comparability gaps | Understand why prices differ | MOQ, currency, missing charges |
| Candidate questions | See what must be resolved | Source-linked open terms |
| Decision criteria | Agree how to shortlist | Buyer priorities |
| Next action | Assign the clarification work | Owner and confirmation state |

## Check the completed record



| Slide | Visible message | Evidence / speaker note |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 / Decision | Agree what we need to buy | Quantity, specification, destination from buyer brief |
| 2 / Offers | Three quotes use different buying conditions | Quote IDs; do not rank bare unit prices |
| 3 / Questions | Resolve freight and minimum-order scope | Keep each unanswered term beside its quote |
| 4 / Next step | Ask the supplier questions before shortlisting | Assign a buyer to obtain the missing terms |
