When to use it

Once the tender summary is ready and before the bid team starts work. Run it again if a clarification answer changes the picture.

What to attach

  • The tender documents
  • Your company context block
  • Your own bid/no-bid criteria, if you have them

What the prompt asks the AI to do

  1. 01Check the entry conditions first (selection criteria, exclusion grounds, mandatory certificates, minimum turnover, references).
  2. 02Score the opportunity from 1 to 5 on each criterion: strategic fit, capability to deliver, evidence we can show, relationship with the buyer, competitive position, commercial attractiveness, contract risk, effort to respond.
  3. 03For each score, give the reason and the evidence.
  4. 04Recommend bid, bid with conditions, or no bid, and name the conditions.

What you get

A blockers list, a scoring table (criterion, score, reason, evidence, source), the recommendation, and five questions the leadership team should answer before deciding.
