Tenders & Acquisition
The tender radar queries official sources for public tenders, downloads freely accessible documents, has the local AI read them and assesses transparently what fits your operation – with reasons, deadlines and changes.
- Official sourcese.g. TED (EU), German federal notice service
- Capture matchesDetect duplicates, report changes
- Read documentsBill of quantities as GAEB, Excel or PDF
- Assess fitwith reasons and verbatim evidence
- Create a caseon to costing and quote
Your team decides which tender to pursue.
Today, searching for tenders is manual work.
Portals are searched by hand, documents downloaded and read – often only shortly before the deadline. Whether a tender really fits sometimes only becomes clear after lengthy reading.
- Searching several portals by hand on a regular basis
- Downloading and reading documents and bills of quantities one by one
- Judging fit by gut feeling
- Tracking deadlines and changes in lists
- Transferring interesting tenders into the quote by hand
What the module covers.
Official sources
Contract notices via official interfaces, exports or RSS – e.g. TED and the German federal procurement notice service (Bekanntmachungsservice). Terms of use are respected; login requirements are not circumvented.
Documents & bill of quantities
Freely accessible documents are downloaded and read; bills of quantities in GAEB-XML, GAEB 2000, Excel or PDF are imported in structured form.
AI analysis with evidence
The local AI summarizes, classifies and assesses. Every statement carries a verbatim quote – without evidence in the source text, it is discarded.
Traceable fit
Assessment by trade, material, manufacturing, machines, region, capacity, certificates and timing – with reasons and visible exclusion criteria.
Deadlines & changes
Submission deadlines are monitored; changed notices are reported with a before/after comparison.
Transfer to a case
One click turns a tender into a case – after that, costing, quote and approval run as with any inquiry.
From contract notice to quote.
This is where your team reviews and decides.
secondFactory prepares. At these points, a person confirms, corrects or deliberately approves – nothing slips through unnoticed.
Decide on relevance
The AI assesses and gives reasons – your team decides whether a tender is pursued. The automation never overrides human decisions.
Create a case
Only after a deliberate decision does the tender become a case with documents and data sheet.
Approve quote
Costing and quote go through the usual approvals – nothing goes out unchecked.
What improves day to day.
