Establish 8-card
major suit fit ?
2
Do you have support for partner's suit, so that you can raise it
and establish a fit?

1
Raise partner's suit ?
1
A single level raise of partner's suit will establish your fit.

1
Unbid 4 card suit ?
6
With an unbid 4 card suit it is correct to bid it now.
There is an exception to this. If partner has limited the number of cards
he has in the suit, to 3 there is no longer any reason to bid it.
If he has 1 or 2, then it is good to show you have the suit.
If he has 4 then you establish the fit.
But if he has 3, he is likely to raise and there is no need.

1
Bid it
3
Find and bid the unbid 4 card suit.
If you and your partner have already combined to bid the other 3 suits,
bid NT instead.

1
Rebiddable 6 card suit?
1
Do you have a six card suit that you have only bid once?

1
bid it
1
Find and bid the 6 card suit at the cheapest available level.

1
Found minor suit fit?
1
Have you and your partner already established a fit?

1
Distributional ?
3
Even once having found a minor suit fit it is usually better to play in
NT unless you are very distributional.
Check for singletons or voids.

1
Should sign off ?
3
Check to see whether it is right to start cue-bidding or whether it is right
to sign off. If you have within 2 points of the number of points you have
already shown, you should sign-off.

1
Which minor ?
1
Sign off in the agreed upon minor.

Bid cheapest NT
3
With a balanced hand and a minor suit fit, bid NT unless the opponents have
bid a suit and you do not have a stopper. If they have bid and you do not
have a stopper then bid their suit, asking for a stopper.

1
Can you establish one ?
1
Check to see if you have support for one of partner's minor suits.

1
What level ?
4
If it is only an 8 card fit and you are balanced, you might as well just
bid NT. If you have a 9 card fit and can rebid your minor without bypassing
3NT, do so.  Otherwise bid 3NT. If you have a 10 card or greater fit,
than it is ok to bypass 3NT.

1
Cheapest NT ?
3
It is now correct to bid NT as cheaply as possible so long as you have
a stopper in the opponents suits or so long as the opponents have not
bid anything.
