Every blank artefact described in one place, matching the schema documented on the page that explains each one.

The generated files themselves (the actual CSV/XLSX/DOCX downloads) are a documented next step for this site and are not yet built. Request the current version of any artefact below by email in the meantime.

How these are produced

Generated from the schema, not maintained by hand

01Field lists come from the published schema, so a template column and a required field cannot diverge.
02Validation rules in the spreadsheets implement the same rules the build enforces: weightings summing to 100, closed coverage values, framework version pinned.
03Each artefact is stamped with its own version and date, independent of the framework version.
04A template is never edited in place after issue. A change means a new version at a new address.
Templates and the framework itself

Two different download pages, deliberately

Framework downloadsThe framework itself: statements, structure, glossary and citation forms. What you read and cite.
TemplatesThe blank artefacts you fill in: coverage maps, specifications, proposals, applications, matrices. What you produce.
