Should you bid on this Canadian tender?
A decision-grade dossier for one opportunity, built from public Canadian procurement data: who the buyer awards to, who you are up against, what comparable work costs, what could disqualify you, and a clear bid or no-bid recommendation.
What the report covers
Buyer dossier
How the department buys: what it has awarded, to whom, how often competitively, and how its spending is trending.
Competitor cards
The vendors already winning with this department in this kind of work, with their disclosed contract history.
Pricing benchmark and posture
What comparable awards actually cost, and a recommended pricing posture for this bid.
Pipeline signals
Contracts with this buyer coming up for renewal, its other open tenders, and funded programs that point to more work.
Deal-breaker checks
The mandatory requirements that disqualify a bid, checked against what you would need to show.
Evaluation criteria and proof matrix
How the bid will be scored, and the evidence each requirement calls for.
Risk register
Contractual, commercial and delivery risks in this solicitation, each with a mitigation.
Bid calendar and submission checklist
Every date that matters and everything the submission must include.
Win themes
Draft positioning angles grounded in what this buyer has rewarded before.
Decision quality
What the public record confirms, and what you still need to verify before committing to bid.
Bid or no-bid recommendation
A clear recommendation with the reasons behind it, and a capture plan if you go ahead.
Where the public record is too thin for a section, the report says so instead of padding it, and every figure is dated to the disclosure data it came from.
How it works
- 1. Send us the tender. A CanadaBuys link, a solicitation number or the documents. Nothing from your own systems.
- 2. We build the dossier. From Government of Canada disclosure data: over 1.3 million federal contract records, contract awards, standing offers and departmental budgets, hosted in Canada.
- 3. You decide. Within 48 business hours you have the evidence and a recommendation to take to the bid or no-bid meeting.
Questions
- What is a Bid Intelligence Report?
- A decision-grade dossier for one Canadian government tender: the buyer's contracting history, the vendors likely to compete, what comparable awards cost, the mandatory requirements that could disqualify you, the main risks, and a bid or no-bid recommendation. It is built entirely from public Canadian procurement data.
- How much does it cost and how long does it take?
- $1,500 per opportunity, delivered within 48 business hours. It is a one-time service with no subscription. You can also run reports yourself: every ProposalForge account gets 1 full report a month for free, and the Intelligence add-on ($499 a month, included with Enterprise) makes them unlimited.
- What do I need to provide?
- The tender: a CanadaBuys link, a solicitation number or the documents. Nothing from your own systems is needed, because the report is built from public disclosure data.
- Does the report predict whether we will win?
- No. It gives a recommendation and the evidence behind it, not a win probability. Where the public record is thin, the report says what it could not confirm rather than guessing.
- Which tenders does it cover?
- It is built for Canadian public-sector tenders. Federal data is the deepest: over 1.3 million federal contract disclosure records, plus contract awards, standing offers and departmental budgets. Coverage of provincial and municipal buyers is narrower, and the report flags any gap.
