Seven award criteria, each with its own weighting, yet the only one anyone calculates before submission is price.

The draft passes through three pairs of hands: specialist author, bid manager, partner. Each reads it front to back rather than against the scoring matrix, because the matrix sits in the tender documents, not in the text. How many points the concept section really earns only becomes a question when the rejection arrives with the score breakdown.

7award criteriaThe tender documents score concept, team, references, quality assurance, schedule, sustainability and price.
40points for conceptThe concept criterion alone carries 40 of the 100 available points.
3reading roundsSpecialist author, bid manager and partner read the draft in turn, each from front to back.
6gaps in the draftSix passages cost points, 32 of 100 between them, each with a reference to the bid's own text.

Six gaps, each with a reference, are on the table before submission, and that is what the 45% higher win rate rests on, not on a glimpse of competitors' bids.

The 45% higher win rate is this agent's headline figure. The number of criteria, the point weighting and the reading rounds trace a typical bid management process and are illustrative, not measured.

Three steps through the process.

The agent gives every award criterion an estimated score with a reference to the draft itself; no competitor's bid feeds into the estimate.

Import the scoring matrix from the tender documents

The agent reads the tender documents and adopts the criteria, weightings and scoring scale. It records which section of the draft contributes to which criterion.

Matrix for tender no. 2026-B-0472, 7 criteria worth 100 points, 4 draft sections mapped

Score the draft criterion by criterion

The agent works through the draft criterion by criterion and estimates the achievable score. For each estimate it names the passage that supports it.

Self-assessment 68 of 100 points, quality assurance criterion at 9 of 20

Name the weak spots before submission

The agent lists the criteria furthest from full marks and names the missing information for each. The bid manager and partner choose what to add before submission.

What the agent does not do.

It does not submit the bid.

It presents the score estimate and the named gaps. The managing partner signs off approval and submission.

Competitors' bids do not feed into the estimate.

It measures the draft against the scoring matrix, not against the field. Whether 68 points is enough in this tender only becomes clear from the contracting authority's score breakdown.

It does not write the missing passages itself.

It names the gap and where it sits, such as the missing description of the quality assurance procedure. The specialist author writes the text, and the bid manager works it into the draft.

The questions that come up before the first meeting.

How quickly is the Bid Self-Assessment Agent ready to use?

A pilot typically runs on your own data within 4 to 6 weeks. The agent connects to your existing systems rather than running as a separate, parallel environment.

Where is the data processed?

EU cloud, private cloud or on-premises. Processing is GDPR-compliant and models are never trained on your data. Details in the Trust Center.

Where does the figure “45% higher win rate” come from?

It is based on experience from comparable projects and process benchmarks, not a commitment. We work out the realistic effect for your organisation during the assessment before the pilot.
