Tender document wallet: free Excel workbook

The tender document wallet is a free, multi-sheet Excel workbook for a Kenyan business: compliance documents with expiry, reused across tenders.

Every tender needs the same certificates, and half of them have quietly expired.

Questions

How does a document wallet help?
It holds each compliance document once, with its expiry and whether it is verified, so you reuse them across tenders and never submit an expired tax compliance certificate or an out-of-date CR12.
Is the tender document wallet free?
Yes. Download the tender document wallet as a ready-to-use Excel workbook, with no sign-in and no payment. It is yours to keep and edit.
What is inside the tender document wallet workbook?
Six sheets: a Start Here guide, the Tender document wallet register (Document, Entity, Document No, Issue Date, Expiry Date, Tender Categories Used, and more), a Dashboard that adds everything up, a Lists sheet for the dropdowns, a Settings sheet, and a Next step sheet. It opens in Excel, Google Sheets or WPS, with no macros.
Does it work in Google Sheets and on my phone?
Yes. The workbook opens in Excel, Google Sheets or WPS. There are no macros, so it works on a phone or a laptop. Keep your own copy before you share it.
How do I keep the tender document wallet consistent?
Use the dropdowns where they appear, and fill one row per entry. The Dashboard counts and summarises your entries, so you can see the picture at a glance without a formula.
How is this different from the SawaAfrik app?
A workbook is a file you fill in yourself. Inside a free SawaAfrik workspace the same shape fills from your real records, invoices, payroll and expenses flow in once and appear everywhere, deadlines remind you before they are due, and statutory figures are computed with their source and date. The workbook is the start; the app is when you stop retyping.
