Proposal Generation & Follow-Up

Get professional proposals out faster—and keep them from going cold.

Transforms approved estimates into consistent proposals and manages follow-up until the opportunity is won, lost, delayed, or rebid.

The operational problem

Why this system exists.

Even a correct estimate loses value when the proposal is late, inconsistent, missing qualifications, or never followed up. Estimators often recreate the same scope language, exclusions, alternates, and attachments while live bids go cold because ownership and follow-up timing are unclear.

What you are buying

A functioning operating system—not a prompt, chatbot, or generic workflow.

The system converts an approved estimate and scope package into a controlled proposal using the contractor's templates and commercial rules. After approval, it records delivery, schedules professional follow-up, captures GC feedback, and keeps the opportunity active until there is a defined disposition.

BUILT FOR

Estimators producing proposals manually and relying on memory or spreadsheets to follow up with multiple general contractors.

How it works

From raw project information to controlled action.

The exact integration changes by contractor. The operating sequence and accountability do not.

01

Assemble

Pull approved pricing, scope, inclusions, exclusions, alternates, qualifications, and supporting documents.

02

Generate

Create a consistent proposal in the contractor's format with project-specific content and version control.

03

Approve and send

Route the draft through the required commercial approval before release.

04

Manage pursuit

Schedule follow-ups, capture feedback, track revisions, and close the loop as won, lost, delayed, or rebid.
