Scenario

Bid Manager

120-camera government tender — EMD due Friday

State CCTV tender received — 120 cameras, EMD and deadline buried in a 40-page NIT

“What is the EMD amount and submission deadline for this tender?”

Requirement: 4MP IP camera, IP67, 30m IR range — need a matching product

“Find a product matching: 4MP IP camera, IP67, 30m IR range”

22 BOQ line items — need full compliance matrix before committing to bid

“Run a full compliance cross-match for this tender against our product catalog”

18 Compliant, 3 Partial, 1 Missing — gaps need review before submission

“Which line items are Non-Compliant or Missing, and why?”
