Federal Proposal and Bid Decision Resources

Make the next pursuit decision with a usable worksheet, the actual instructions and the evidence your team can supply.

Start with the decision in front of you

Before you write

Federal bid/no-bid checklist

Record the requirement, participation route, missing evidence and remaining work. End with a provisional pursue, partner or pass decision.

Use the decision worksheet

While you prepare a response

Proposal compliance matrix

Connect each instruction to a response location, evidence owner and unresolved question. Includes a fictional row and blank worksheet.

Use the blank matrix

Before you make a claim

Federal evidence checklist

Organize product facts, test conditions, interfaces and approvals so the draft reflects what your team can support.

Prepare your evidence package

Useful without an email gate

Read, use and print these tools without supplying contact details. They are original Thesis Federal working frameworks for technology companies considering federal opportunities.

The notice, incorporated instructions and applicable amendments determine the actual submission requirements. The worksheets below organize a decision; they do not certify eligibility or replace agency instructions.

Each guide names its sources and source-check date. A guide is not a live-opportunity alert. Recheck the actual notice and amendments before acting.

When you want a second set of eyes

The free funding plan applies the decision to one company and one opportunity, with sources. One page showing whether the notice fits (pursue, partner or pass), the project we would propose in the agency’s terms, what it would take, and the next step.

For a document already in progress, choose writing support or an independent draft review. The scope and fee come before your approval.
