    Bordeaux-specific realities (what changes the approach)

    Export/trade chains can be complex

    Confirm the contracting entity, payer entity, and delivery/acceptance milestones.

    Documentation chain matters

    Invoices, shipment/delivery evidence, acceptance confirmations, and any variations should be organized upfront.

    "Delay" can be cycle-driven

    Use dated written commitments and enforce escalation gates if missed.

    Professional, options-based approach

    Preserve relationships where appropriate while maintaining pressure.

    What to submit (document checklist)

    • Contract/terms, PO(s), accepted quote(s)
    • Invoice(s) + statement of account
    • Delivery/performance/acceptance proof (and any shipment/service evidence available)
    • Communication log + debtor contact list + entity details
