What is RFP Response Software?

RFP response software (also called proposal management software or bid management tools) helps businesses efficiently create, manage, and submit responses to Requests for Proposals. Instead of manually reading through hundreds of pages and writing responses from scratch, RFP software automates the tedious parts of proposal development.

Modern AI-powered RFP tools like RFP Extract go beyond basic document management. They use artificial intelligence to automatically extract requirements from solicitation documents, generate first-draft responses tailored to each requirement, and ensure your proposals are compliant with government standards like FAR, DFARS, and agency-specific regulations.

Whether you're responding to federal government RFPs, state and local bids, or commercial proposals, the right RFP response software can reduce your response time by up to 78% while improving win rates through better compliance and more comprehensive responses.

This reduces response time by up to 78% while improving accuracy.

RFP Extract handles all types of solicitations including federal government RFPs (DoD, GSA, civilian agencies), state and local government bids, commercial RFPs, RFQs (Request for Quotation), RFIs (Request for Information), and IDIQs/Task Orders. It supports FAR compliance, Section C/L/M structures, and CLIN-based pricing formats.

A compliance matrix is a document that maps each RFP requirement to your proposal response, showing where and how you address each item. It's essential for government proposals as evaluators use it to verify compliance. RFP Extract automatically generates this matrix, saving hours of manual work and reducing the risk of missing requirements.

RFP Extract offers three tiers: Starter at $49/month (3 RFPs), Professional at $199/month (15 RFPs), and Enterprise with custom pricing for unlimited usage. Compared to the $10,000-$50,000 cost of manual proposal development or hiring consultants, this represents a 90%+ cost reduction.
