Bidding Assistant
Scenario Description
Your company received a project bidding document with 18 days until the bid deadline. You need to understand qualification requirements, write technical proposals, develop pricing strategies, and ensure the bid documents are flawless. Any oversight in any step could lead to disqualification.
The Bidding Assistant agent can help you systematically complete the entire bidding process: interpreting bidding documents, self-reviewing bidding qualifications, generating technical proposal frameworks, analyzing optimal pricing, and item-by-item checking bid document completeness.
Recommended Agent
Bidding Assistant -- Bidding process management expert, responsible for bid document preparation, qualification review, and pricing strategy.
Teaching First: Building Your Company Profile
The most time-consuming part of bidding is repeatedly compiling company qualifications and past performance. Teach once, and every new project gets automatic matching from then on.
Teaching Rules
You: Let me teach you about our company profile for future bids:

[Upload Recent Projects.xlsx]
A few rules to add:
1. Minimum profit margin on quotes: no less than 15%, skip the bid if below (mandatory)
2. When citing past performance in technical proposals, prioritize projects from the same industry and similar scale (preference)
3. All bid documents must use the company template format, with company logo and qualification number on the cover (mandatory)
Bidding Assistant: 📝 New learning recorded

Type: Rule (Bidding strategy)
Level: Mandatory × 2, Preference × 1
My understanding:
Automatically match relevant company qualifications and similar
past projects when bidding. Ensure profit margin ≥15% during
pricing, otherwise recommend passing. Prioritize same-industry
cases in technical proposals. Use company template for all
document formatting.
