The Scenario

On a Thursday afternoon, a government contractor received an 18-page RFP due the following Tuesday. Historically, building the compliance matrix, structuring the outline, and assembling a first draft would have taken several days and multiple team members.

The Result

With the platform's auto-extraction and response structuring tools, the government contractor had a complete first draft, fully aligned to the solicitation, in under 40 minutes.
