analyzing-competitors
Produces a Black Hat competitive assessment for a US Federal opportunity as a wiki of competitor entities. Use when the user needs competitive analysis, a Black Hat review or session, competitor profiling, an incumbent assessment, or to understand the competitive field for a federal bid. Creates and enriches one competitor entity page per likely bidder (modeling each competitor's probable solution, price posture, and win themes from that competitor's point of view) records the team's exposures as risk entities, and renders the competitive-assessment view.
qualifying-opportunities
Runs a structured bid/no-bid gate review for a US Federal opportunity and bootstraps the pursuit's knowledge wiki. Use when deciding whether to pursue or bid a federal solicitation, RFP, RFQ, RFI, sources-sought notice, or IDIQ task order — for a bid/no-bid decision, pursuit decision, gate review, opportunity qualification, go/no-go, or pWin assessment. Creates the pursuit wiki and its schema, builds the customer and bid-decision entities, and renders the opportunity-profile and bid-decision views.
analyzing-competitors
Produces a Black Hat competitive assessment for a US Federal opportunity. Use when the user needs competitive analysis, a Black Hat review or session, competitor profiling, an incumbent assessment, or wants to understand the competitive field for a federal bid. Identifies likely competitors, models each one's probable solution, price posture, and win themes from the competitor's point of view, and derives counters, ghosting opportunities, and the team's own exposures.
analyzing-debriefs
Prepares for and analyzes a US Federal procurement debrief. Use when the user needs to request a debrief, prepare debrief questions, analyze a government debrief, conduct win/loss analysis, or capture lessons learned from a federal bid. Structures the debrief request, interprets what the government said about the evaluation, and turns it into lessons that feed future bid/no-bid and capture decisions.
developing-key-personnel
Develops key personnel resumes and the staffing case for a US Federal proposal. Use when the user needs key personnel, tailored resumes, staffing qualifications, personnel write-ups, or letters of commitment, or needs to map proposed personnel to the labor-category and qualification requirements of a federal solicitation. Tailors each resume to the position's required qualifications and the Section M evaluation criteria, and substantiates that the named people will be available.
developing-solution-approach
Designs the proposal-ready solution for a US Federal bid. Use when the user needs a solution approach, a technical solution design, solutioning, a solutioning workshop, a staffing or management model, a transition or risk or quality approach, or needs to turn requirements, win themes, and constraints into a designed solution before drafting. Produces the solution design that storyboards and section drafts are built from.
developing-teaming-strategy
Develops the teaming strategy for a US Federal pursuit. Use when the user needs a teaming strategy, a partner gap analysis, teammate selection or scoring, workshare planning, teaming agreements or letters of intent, subcontractor data calls, small-business participation or subcontracting-plan input, or teaming OCI screening. Identifies what the prime cannot cover alone and builds a defensible, compliant team.
developing-win-strategy
Develops the win strategy for a US Federal proposal. Use when the user needs win themes, discriminators, a win strategy, a value proposition, key messages, proposal themes, or ghosting language for a federal bid. Validates discriminators against a value-and-rarity test, builds substantiated win themes that connect customer hot buttons to provable strengths, maps each theme to a Section M evaluation factor, and addresses the team's competitive exposures.
drafting-proposal-sections
Drafts narrative sections of a US Federal proposal from approved storyboards. Use when the user needs to draft, write, or develop proposal sections, technical volume or management volume narrative, a solution approach, or section content for a federal bid. Writes customer-focused, benefit-led narrative that threads the section's win theme, lands its proof points, stays traceable to the compliance matrix, and is organized so a Section M evaluator can score it easily.
estimating-price-to-win
Produces a price-to-win analysis for a US Federal opportunity. Use when the user needs price-to-win, PTW, a competitive pricing analysis, a price target or price range, or wants to understand pricing strategy, cost drivers, and pricing levers for a federal bid. Estimates the competitive price range and a target price the bid must reach to win, independent of a bottom-up cost estimate, and reconciles that target against the team's likely cost.
managing-proposal-operations
Runs a US Federal proposal as a managed project. Use when the user needs a proposal management plan, a proposal schedule or calendar, a proposal kickoff, volume plan, author assignments or RACI, an action item register, a question log, amendment impact tracking, review logistics, or production planning. Owns the operational backbone that turns the proposal artifacts into a coordinated, on-time, compliant submission.
narrating-cost-volumes
Drafts the cost or price volume narrative and basis-of-estimate text for a US Federal proposal. Use when the user needs a cost volume narrative, price volume narrative, cost narrative, basis of estimate or BOE, cost-realism narrative, or to check cost-technical consistency for a federal bid. Explains and justifies proposed costs, builds the rationale for each cost element, and verifies the cost volume matches the technical and management volumes.
outlining-proposals
Builds a compliant annotated outline and storyboards for a US Federal proposal. Use when the user needs a proposal outline, annotated outline, storyboards, a proposal structure, section plans, a page budget, or wants to plan a proposal before drafting. Builds the structure directly from Section L and the compliance matrix, and annotates each section with the requirements it covers, the Section M factors it is scored under, the win themes to thread, proof points, graphics concepts, page allocation, and author.
planning-capture
Builds and maintains a living capture plan for a US Federal opportunity in the pre-RFP capture phase. Use when the user needs a capture plan, capture strategy, customer call plan, customer engagement or shaping plan, or wants to organize pre-RFP positioning work, intelligence gaps, teaming actions, and capture milestones. Produces a capture plan artifact with assigned, dated action items aimed at raising probability of win before the RFP releases.
preparing-orals
Prepares an oral presentation for a US Federal proposal. Use when the user needs orals prep, an oral presentation, a proposal briefing or pitch, slides for orals, presenter assignments, or evaluator Q&A rehearsal for a federal bid. Builds the presentation from the win strategy and technical approach, structures it to the Section M evaluation factors, assigns presenters, and rehearses likely evaluator questions.
qualifying-opportunities
Runs a structured bid/no-bid gate review for a US Federal opportunity. Use when deciding whether to pursue or bid a federal solicitation, RFP, RFQ, RFI, sources-sought notice, draft RFP, or IDIQ task order — triggered by requests for a bid/no-bid decision, pursuit decision, gate review, opportunity qualification, capture gate, go/no-go, or pWin assessment. Produces an opportunity profile and a weighted scorecard with a defensible recommendation.
responding-to-rfis
Drafts pre-RFP shaping responses for US Federal opportunities. Use when the user needs to respond to a sources-sought notice, a request for information (RFI), or a draft RFP, or to draft a capability statement, a white paper, or a draft-RFP comment matrix. Produces responses that demonstrate capability, inform the government's market research and set-aside decision, and legitimately shape the requirement and the evaluation before the RFP releases.
reviewing-color-teams
Runs proposal color team reviews for a US Federal bid — Blue, Pink, Green, Red, Gold, and White Glove. Use when the user needs a color team review; a Blue, Pink, Green, Red, Gold, or White Glove (book check) review; a proposal or cost-volume review; an evaluator-perspective assessment; a mock evaluation; or a proposal scored before submission. The Red Team scores the proposal as a source-selection evaluator would, against Section M, identifying strengths, weaknesses, significant weaknesses, and deficiencies; every review produces prioritized, actionable findings for recovery.
running-review-recovery
Runs proposal review recovery for a US Federal bid. Use when the user needs to work color team findings, run recovery after a Pink, Red, or Gold review, assign and track finding closure, verify fixes against Section M and the compliance matrix, or produce a recovery status dashboard. Turns review findings into assigned, completed, and verified corrections before the next milestone.
shredding-solicitations
Shreds a US Federal solicitation into a requirements and compliance matrix. Use when the user needs to shred or analyze an RFP, RFQ, RFI, or task order, build a compliance matrix or requirements matrix, extract shall statements, or cross-walk Section L instructions, Section M evaluation factors, and the Section C/SOW/PWS/SOO requirements. Produces a numbered compliance matrix that maps every requirement to the proposal location that will address it, plus a register of format and submission rules.
writing-executive-summaries
Writes the executive summary for a US Federal proposal. Use when the user needs an executive summary, an executive summary volume, a proposal summary, or the opening volume of a federal bid. Writes the executive summary as a persuasion document organized around customer hot buttons and win themes (not a table-of-contents recap) built to make the evaluator favor award before reaching the detailed volumes.
writing-past-performance
Builds past performance write-ups for a US Federal proposal. Use when the user needs past performance, a past performance volume, past performance citations or references, CPARS or PPQ-based write-ups, or relevance narratives for a federal bid. Selects references for recency, relevancy, and quality; maps each prior contract to the current requirement on the dimensions Section M evaluates; and substantiates performance quality with evidence.
