- Make bid or no-bid decisions based on data rather than estimates
- Compare multiple teaming partners to identify the strongest fit for a specific opportunity
- Identify capability gaps before starting proposal development
Before you begin: For accurate simulation results, upload relevant company documents (past performance narratives, capability statements, resumes) in the Documents section. The simulation uses these files as input for the capability assessment.
How to run a simulation
- Go to the Simulation section in the Workspace panel.

- Choose the source of the opportunity:
| Source | Description |
|---|---|
| SAM | Federal opportunities sourced from SAM.gov. |
| Custom | Opportunities created manually by your organization. |

Simulation results
After generation, the results screen displays:- The requirements extracted from the selected opportunity
- A capability assessment based on your uploaded documents, company profile, and past activity
- An alignment evaluation comparing your capabilities to the opportunity’s requirements

What to do next
After reviewing simulation results:- If the results indicate strong alignment, proceed to Proposal Generation to create a response.
- If the results show capability gaps, consider adding a teaming partner through the Administrator Workspace Partners section, or upload additional documents to improve your profile.
