Features
One workflow. Three stages. Better pursuits.

BidWERX connects opportunity discovery, source-document analysis, pursuit decision support, response evaluation, and partner matching into one structured intelligence platform — organized around how federal pursuit work actually moves.

BidWERX is organized around the way pursuit work actually moves.

Each module creates context for the next step, so teams can move from discovery to decision to submission without rebuilding the pursuit record from scratch.

Find It — Matching
Triage opportunity options before the pursuit gets expensive.

Matching helps users search, filter, compare, and move better-fit opportunities into source analysis with the right context already attached. Every opportunity carries forward the alignment signals that informed why it surfaced — no re-keying, no re-search, no losing context between steps.

Find It — FitScore
Use alignment signals to prioritize pursuit decisions.

FitScore supports opportunity triage by surfacing alignment signals across available SAM.gov fields, capability indicators, set-aside status, certifications, and source context. FitScore is not win probability, a guaranteed outcome, or predictive certainty — it's structured information that helps your team decide what's worth a closer look.

Work it — Analyze
Make source documents drive the pursuit plan.

Source Analysis turns solicitations, NOFOs, attachments, and instructions into a structured view of requirements, risks, evaluation criteria, questions, and response outline inputs. Five tabs cover every angle reviewers will care about — extracted, organized, and ready to inform every downstream step.

Work It — Partner Network
Find the partner who fills your gap. Get found by the orgs who need you.
(Available on Org Starter and above)

Some federal opportunities require capabilities no single organization has. Partner Network gives Org accounts a way to find the right teaming partners — and to be found by others who need what you bring. BidWERX handles the matching automatically; you handle the relationship.

GAP
Automatic match
On any opportunity screen, BidWERX compares the opportunity's capability requirements against your organization's profile. Where gaps exist, it surfaces Partner Network members who have those missing capabilities.
Invite
One-step outreach
Send a teaming invitation by email directly from BidWERX — for existing BidWERX users and organizations not yet on the platform — asking them to join and team on the specific opportunity.
Status
Passive discovery
Your capability profile works for you even when you're not actively looking. When another organization pursues an opportunity where your capabilities match, BidWERX can surface you as a potential teaming partner. Default on; switchable off any time.
Work It — Go/No-Go Scorecard
Turn the bid/no-bid meeting into a defensible recommendation in 30 minutes.
(Available on Team Starter and above)

Most pursuit decisions get made from memory and gut feel — and they're hard to defend when the team disagrees. The Go/No-Go Scorecard evaluates each opportunity across nine criteria, returns a recommendation, and shows the rationale your team can review, push back on, and align around. Replace the hour-long debate with a structured decision your BD lead, capture manager, and executive sponsor can all read in five minutes.

Structured
Nine-criteria evaluation
Every Go/No-Go uses the same nine criteria — capability fit, competitive position, customer relationship, contract vehicle, schedule realism, financial impact, strategic value, risk, and resource availability. Consistent inputs, comparable outputs across every opportunity your team reviews.
Defensible
Rationale you can show your team
The scorecard returns a recommendation and the rationale behind each criterion's score. Bring it to your bid review meeting and walk the team through exactly why this opportunity scored where it did — no more "trust me, I read the RFP."
Fast
30 minutes, not three hours
Build a complete Go/No-Go case in the time it usually takes to assemble a meeting. Reallocate the hours you used to spend on bid/no-bid prep to the responses that actually win.
Win It — Evaluate
Review draft responses before the final scramble.

Response Evaluation helps users review draft responses against compliance, responsiveness, risk, persuasiveness, and available evaluation criteria so teams can improve content before submission. Five evaluator-aligned dimensions, one structured view.

Win It — Academic Evaluation Mode
Evaluate scholarly work the way reviewers actually evaluate it.
(Available on Individual and all Org plans)

Academic Evaluation Mode is purpose-built for review of scholarly works — manuscripts, journal articles, abstracts, conference papers, and other academic content. Get reviewer-aligned feedback that mirrors how academic peer reviewers, editors, and committee members actually assess scholarly writing — clarity of argument, methodological rigor, evidence quality, and presentation — before you submit.

Win It — User-Defined Rubrics
Evaluate against your criteria, not just ours.
(Available on Org Starter and above)

Every funding agency, program, and reviewer scores differently. User-Defined Rubrics let your team build custom evaluation rubrics from any source — FOA-specific scoring criteria, prior reviewer feedback, journal guidelines, internal review standards — and apply them to every response evaluation. The evaluator-aware intelligence is the same; the criteria are yours.
