Use case

Pick the staff and projects for an RFP response

Ask RFPM Agent recommends the staff and projects for a pursuit, with the records behind each. Your team makes the selection. The resumes, project sheets, and first draft follow from it.

What it does
Matches a solicitation's requirements against your staff profiles and project records and recommends a team and example projects, with the evidence
What it does not do
Decide. A person keeps, changes, and confirms the selection; nothing joins a pursuit without that
Best for
AEC firms of 15 to 200 staff selected on qualifications: who has done this before, for whom, how recently
The question

The question every pursuit starts with

Before anyone writes a word, someone has to answer: which of our people and which of our projects are the strongest evidence for this solicitation? In most firms the answer lives in a few heads and the last submittal. Projects finished last quarter, staff who moved between offices, and registrations earned since the last pursuit are the ones that get missed.

The cost is not only time. A resume that omits the one project the evaluator was looking for, or an example project that does not match the work category, loses points the narrative cannot win back.

How it works

How the recommendation works

Four steps, the last one yours. Pick a step to follow it through, or wait for the selection and make it yourself.

  1. The solicitation sits on the pursuit. Ask RFPM Agent reads it for work categories, required registrations, minimum experience, agency, geography, and the evaluation criteria.

  2. Staff profiles carry registrations by state, certifications, and every project role. Project records carry scope, client, contract value, delivery method, dates, and the staff who worked on them. The match runs on that data, not on the text of old proposals.

  3. For each requirement: the people and projects that fit and the records that show it. A requirement with nothing on file is marked as needed, not filled.

  4. The proposal lead keeps, swaps, or adds people and projects and confirms the selection. Only then are the tailored resumes and project sheets generated.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Does RFPM pick the team and projects automatically?
No. Ask RFPM Agent recommends them. It reads the solicitation, matches the requirements against the firm's staff profiles and project records, and proposes the people and past projects that fit, with the records behind each recommendation. A person reviews the list, keeps or changes it, and confirms the selection before any resume or project sheet is generated. Nothing is added to a pursuit without that confirmation.
What does the recommendation match on?
Whatever the solicitation asks for and the records contain: discipline, project type, agency or client, geography, contract value, delivery method, the role a person held on a project, registrations by state and certifications, and recency. The evidence is the firm's own structured data, not general web content. A requirement with nothing on file is marked as needed rather than filled.
Which firms is this built for?
AEC firms of 15 to 200 staff that are selected on qualifications: civil, transportation, water, and multidiscipline engineering firms and construction management consultants responding to SOQs, RFQs, state DOT prequalification, on-call contracts, and SF330s. It is not a general RFP tool for software, IT, or other firms outside architecture, engineering, and construction.
What happens after the selection?
The selected people and projects belong to the pursuit. Resumes generate in the firm's own Word or InDesign template, SOQ formats, or SF330 Section E, and project experience sheets generate for SOQ, state DOT, and SF330 Section F formats, each tailored to the projects and qualifications chosen for this pursuit. The pursuit record keeps the team, the selected projects, reviewer comments, and open items in one place.
Does it write the proposal?
RFPM writes the first draft in your template, suggests the people and projects, and your team reviews and edits. Ask RFPM Agent also drafts individual sections grounded in the firm's records, with sources. A person edits, approves, and submits.
