Operate bid management modules
Operate Bid Management brings every part of your bidding process into one smooth flow. Each module reflects how you already work — just simpler, smarter, and faster.
Build your pipeline with confidence
Turn every connection into an opportunity. Operate CRM brings together your leads, contacts, and project prospects in one centralized system. From developers and contractors to repeat clients, track relationships, set reminders, assign follow-ups, and gain real-time visibility into your pipeline by region, team, or sector. Instead of chasing scattered data, your team can focus on what matters most — building relationships and winning more bids.
Create, coordinate, and submit with precision
No more lost files or missed deadlines. Operate Tender Management centralizes every document, deadline, and submission detail, keeping your teams aligned and organized. Automated workflows ensure accuracy and compliance, while real-time progress tracking keeps estimating, legal, and executive teams on the same page.
Deliver complete, competitive tenders — on time, every time.
Simplify procurement and supplier selection
Operate RFQ Management helps you find the best value without the chaos. Issue RFQs directly from your opportunity or tender stage, manage vendor responses, and compare quotes side-by-side — all within one streamlined dashboard. Automated reminders, clarifications, and version control ensure transparency and speed.
With everything connected, RFQs move seamlessly into tenders and contracts, cutting down on manual rework.
Stay in control from award to execution
Operate Contract Management ensures every agreement stays compliant, traceable, and on schedule. Store all client, subcontractor, and supplier contracts in one secure platform. Automate routing and approvals, track milestones and deliverables in real time, and link every contract back to its bid, tender, and RFQ for full project context.
Reduce risk, maintain compliance, and manage every contract with confidence.
Manage the entire bid lifecycle
from first lead to signed contract
Every successful bid starts long before submission day. It begins with a lead, a conversation, a file dropped in your inbox. From that moment, Operate Bid Management is with you — guiding, connecting, and automating each stage of your journey so your team can focus on what truly matters: winning the work.
Pre-bid
Spot opportunities before your competitors do
Operate’s CRM doesn’t just log leads — it helps you see opportunities as they form.
Every new contact or inquiry is captured and organized instantly in your pipeline, giving you a clear view of clients, deadlines, and sectors in real time.
With AI-driven lead scoring, Operate studies past performance, client patterns, and market trends to highlight your best prospects. It feels like having a digital strategist who knows where your next win is most likely to come from.
Spot, qualify, and plan smarter with Operate CRM and built-in AI intelligence.
Bid phase
Collaboration without chaos
When bid day nears, Operate brings calm to the chaos. The Tender Management module keeps every file, deadline, and update in sync so your team moves together without confusion.
Automated workflows and AI-powered checks review your submission for accuracy and compliance, giving you confidence it’s right the first time.
Meanwhile, RFQ Management simplifies supplier coordination by letting you send, track, and compare quotes in one view.
Operate’s AI quote insights identify the best-value suppliers based on pricing and past reliability.
Bid smarter and submit stronger with Operate Tender and RFQ.
Post-bid
From winning to delivering
Winning is just the start. Once a contract is awarded, Operate ensures a seamless handoff from bid to execution.
The Contract Management module connects directly to your tender and RFQ data so every term, deliverable, and payment detail is already in place. Automated approvals and e-signatures keep things moving, while AI highlights key clauses and potential risks before anyone signs.
Real-time dashboards track milestones and compliance, turning what was once a rush into a calm, transparent process.
Operate Contract — manage every agreement with confidence and clarity.
Continuous improvement
Learn, adapt, and win smarter
Operate doesn’t stop when the bid ends. Every result — win or loss — becomes insight.
Its AI-driven analytics break down success factors by client, project type, and bid value, revealing where your team performs best and where there’s room to improve.
Imagine knowing which proposals resonate most, which pricing strategies win more, or which clients offer the highest lifetime value. Operate transforms every data point into a competitive advantage — so your next bid starts smarter than the last.
Operate: the way you already work — just smarter
Operate doesn’t reinvent how you manage bids. It simply removes the friction. From first lead to signed contract, it mirrors your real-world workflow — CRM, Tender, RFQ, Contract — and supercharges it with automation, collaboration, and predictive intelligence. You still do the work. Operate just helps you do it better — faster, safer, and with a higher chance of winning.
