  • List View provides you with an overview of all of the projects available in your pipeline, including what stage they are at in your bidding process and a match score about how well they align to your business' capabilities, location, etc. Use this view to quickly compare projects and ensure that your business development efforts are focused where they need to be. In this view, you can also review and export projects your company has opted to not bid on or archived projects for reporting and
    historical purposes.

  • Tab View helps you track and manage your entire bid pipeline. The tabs at the top indicate how many projects you have at each stage of the bidding process, including tracking how many projects you’ve won. Advance projects to the next stage as you complete your initial assessment or assign specific projects to others in your organization. Use this view to also determine when invitations to bid are due so that you can map them to your internal workflows, or to review and get reporting for projects that you opted to not bid on or have archived as part of your reporting on your entire end-to-end business development pipeline.

  • Calendar View helps map all the bid days for the projects in your entire pipeline. Using this view, work backwards from a particular bid day to create an internal project plan or assign work to others in your organization (i.e., estimators) as needed.
