NOT free-form proposal narrative authoring, NOT contract redline, NOT marketing collateral. context fork version 2.8.0 author claude-code-skills license MIT tags [\"commercial\",\"rfp\",\"rfi\",\"rfq\",\"shipley\",\"win-theme\",\"proof-points\",\"structured-response\",\"bid-management\"] compatible_tools [\"claude-code\",\"codex-cli\",\"cursor\",\"antigravity\",\"opencode\",\"gemini-cli\"] rfp-responder Purpose Help Bid Managers, Proposal Leads, and Directors of Sales answer five questions at the response-strategy moment: What is this RFP actually asking? (parse sections, tag every requirement MANDATORY / WEIGHTED / NICE-TO-HAVE, extract scoring criteria, surface deadlines and format constraints) What is our true fit? (proof-point matrix per requirement: STRONG / PARTIAL / GAP, each backed by a verifiable source — case study, certification, customer quote, technical attestation, benchmark) What is our win-theme strategy? (Shipley method: 3-5 themes that ladder up across requirements, not generic value-prop bullets) What is our realistic winrate? (Shipley-derived factor model: fit, incumbent, relationship strength, decision-criteria alignment, late-entry, competitor count, deal size — produces estimate + confidence band) Should we bid? (deterministic verdict: BID / PARTNER-BID / NO-BID with named factors driving the call) The skill surfaces GAPs explicitly. Leadership decides whether to close them, partner around them, or no-bid. It never invents claims. When to use A 30+ page RFP / RFI / RFQ has landed with a 7-14 day response deadline A security questionnaire (SIG, CAIQ, custom-buyer) needs structured Q&A — not prose The team is preparing a bid / no-bid review and needs a defensible winrate estimate Sales Engineering has a proof-point library but no system to map proofs to requirements Leadership wants to see fit % (STRONG / PARTIAL / GAP) before committing pursuit budget A late-entry opportunity needs honest assessment of the relationship deficit Do not use for: Free-form proposal narrative authoring → business-growth/contract-and-proposal-writer Contract redline AFTER award → c-level-advisor/general-counsel-advisor Marketing collateral / category content → marketing-skill/* Discount approval on the awarded deal → commercial/deal-desk Pricing-model design for a new product → commercial/pricing-strategist Workflow Step 1 — Parse the RFP Drop the RFP markdown / text into scripts/rfp_parser.py . Output: structured JSON listing every requirement, tagged MANDATORY / WEIGHTED / NICE-TO-HAVE based on cue words (must / shall = MANDATORY; should / weighted scoring numbers = WEIGHTED; may / preferred / desired = NICE-TO-HAVE). Captures section structure, scoring criteria if disclosed, deadline, submission format constraints. python scripts/rfp_parser.py --input rfp.md --output json > parsed.json Step 2 — Score fit per requirement Fill assets/rfp_intake_template.md with your proof-point library (each proof tagged with type + verifiable source + which requirement-tags it covers) and proposed win-themes. Feed parsed RFP + intake into scripts/response_drafter.py . Output: proof-point matrix per requirement with STRONG / PARTIAL / GAP, win-theme injection, GAP audit. python scripts/response_drafter.py --input draft_input.json --output markdown > matrix.md Hard rule: GAP requirements are surfaced, never invented around. Leadership reads the GAP audit and decides: close the gap, partner-bid, or no-bid. Step 3 — Apply win-theme strategy Shipley method: 3-5 themes that span requirements. Each theme answers \"why us over the incumbent / competitor on the criteria the buyer named.\" response_drafter.py shows which themes thread through which requirements — a theme appearing in <2 requirements is decorative, not strategic, and gets flagged. Step 4 — Estimate winrate Feed deal context (fit %, incumbent strength, relationship, decision-criteria alignment, late-entry, competitor count, deal size vs. average) into scripts/winrate_predictor.py . Output: Shipley-derived estimate 0-100% + confidence band + factor breakdown + BID / PARTNER-BID / NO-BID verdict. python scripts/winrate_predictor.py --input deal_context.json --profile enterprise-software --output markdown No-bid threshold: estimate < 20% triggers automatic no-bid recommendation. Step 5 — Decide Take parsed RFP + proof-point matrix + GAP audit + winrate estimate into the go / no-go review. Skill does not commit pursuit budget — leadership does. Scripts scripts/rfp_parser.py — section + requirement extractor (regex + cue-word heuristics, stdlib only) scripts/response_drafter.py — proof-point matrix + win-theme injection + GAP audit scripts/winrate_predictor.py — Shipley-derived factor model + bid/no-bid verdict, industry-profile-tuned All scripts: stdlib only (argparse, json, sys, pathlib, re, collections, statistics). --help and --sample work on all three.

If the buyer asked it, answer it — in the order they asked, in the format they specified. Re-organizing for narrative flow is for proposals, not RFPs. Proof points must be verifiable. A claim is only as strong as the case study, certification, customer reference, or technical attestation backing it. Unsourced claims become GAPs. Win-themes are buyer-side, not seller-side. \"We're the leader in X\" is a marketing claim; \"Your operations team reduces incident MTTR by 60% with the same headcount\" is a win-theme. Shipley canon, not optional. Winrate estimates are directional. The model is a discipline tool to force honest pursuit-qualification — not an oracle. Confidence band always wider than the point estimate suggests. Industry profiles tune base rates — government RFPs reward compliance discipline; enterprise SaaS rewards reference accounts; healthcare rewards regulatory + security depth. Late entry is a structural disadvantage. Entering after the RFP issued, with no relationship history, drops base rate ~15%. The skill names this, doesn't hide it. Anti-patterns Inventing a proof point to fill a GAP. Hard rule violation. GAPs surface for leadership decision, not for prose-laundering. See references/rfp_anti_patterns.md . Responding to every RFP. Without a qualified bid / no-bid gate, the team burns capacity on <20% winrate pursuits and loses the 50%+ pursuits to lack of focus. Bain commercial-discipline research. Generic response with no win-theme. A proposal that could be sent verbatim by any competitor is decorative. Shipley failure mode #1. Missing a mandatory disqualifier late. FedRAMP / HIPAA / ISO 27001 / SOC 2 / on-shore data residency caught on Day 12 of a 14-day response = wasted pursuit. Parser surfaces these on Day 1. Answering the question YOU wanted asked. RFP responder discipline: answer what they asked, in their words, in their order. Re-framing belongs in cover letters, not in the compliance matrix. No compliance matrix. Every requirement should map to a response section + page number. Evaluators score on a matrix; respondents who don't provide one self-disqualify on traceability. Late-entry without acknowledging the relationship deficit. Entering cold against an incumbent with a 3-year relationship and no champion = sub-20% winrate. Pretending otherwise wastes Sales Engineering capacity. Treating WEIGHTED requirements like MANDATORY. Score-weighted requirements reward depth on the high-weight items, not uniform mediocrity across all. Shipley capture method. Distinct from business-growth/contract-and-proposal-writer — free-form narrative proposals where YOU set the structure (executive briefs, capability statements, unsolicited proposals). RFP-responder handles buyer-dictated structured Q&A where the buyer set the questions, sections, scoring criteria, and format. Different artifact, different decision logic. c-level-advisor/general-counsel-advisor — contract redline and IP/risk review AFTER award. RFP-responder operates BEFORE award, on the response strategy. marketing-skill/* — external marketing assets (web copy, content, ASO, SEO, brand voice) for many-to-many audiences. RFP-responder produces a single-buyer artifact with deterministic compliance requirements. commercial/deal-desk — per-deal discount routing on a closing opportunity. RFP-responder is pursuit-stage; deal-desk is close-stage. commercial/pricing-strategist — pricing-model design for a new product. RFP-responder consumes existing pricing as input to the commercial-terms section. Forcing-question library (Matt Pocock grill discipline) Walked one at a time before any script runs. Recommended answer + canon citation per question. Never bundled. \"What's your STRONG / PARTIAL / GAP split on the MANDATORY requirements?\" Recommended: STRONG ≥ 70% on MANDATORY before bidding. PARTIAL/GAP on any MANDATORY = either close the gap pre-submission or no-bid. Canon: Shipley Proposal Guide v6 — capture-management discipline, \"Pgw (probability of win) is bounded by your weakest MANDATORY.\" \"Is there an incumbent, and how strong is their position?\" Recommended: strong incumbent (3+ years, no displacement event) drops base winrate ~30%. Don't bid without a named displacement trigger. Canon: Forrester B2B-RFP research — incumbents win 70-80% of renewal RFPs absent a named failure event. \"Did you enter the conversation before or after the RFP issued?\" Recommended: late-entry (after RFP issued, no prior engagement) drops winrate ~15% and signals the RFP was scoped to someone else's strengths. Canon: Tom Searcy + Henry DeVries How to Win Big Business — \"If you didn't help write the RFP, you're column fodder.\" \"What are your 3-5 win-themes, and does each thread through ≥2 requirements?\" Recommended: themes that appear in only one requirement are decorative. Themes must ladder up across MANDATORY + WEIGHTED sections. Canon: Shipley Capture Guide — win-themes are the buyer-side answer to \"why us\" across the evaluation criteria, not seller-side feature lists. \"For every claim in the response, can you name the verifiable source?\" Recommended: every claim → case study / certification / customer reference / technical attestation / benchmark. Unsourced claims = GAPs. Canon: APMP BoK — \"Substantiation: every assertion in a proposal must be backed by evidence the evaluator can independently verify.\" \"What's the bid / no-bid threshold you committed to BEFORE seeing this RFP?\" Recommended: pre-committed threshold (e.g., winrate ≥ 25%, STRONG ≥ 70% on MANDATORY, named champion). Post-hoc rationalization is how teams end up bidding 5% pursuits. Canon: Bain RFP-win-rate studies — disciplined bid/no-bid gates lift win-rate from ~15% to ~35%. \"What does the buyer's evaluation team actually score on?\" Recommended: if the RFP discloses scoring criteria, weight your response effort proportionally. If undisclosed, ask. If you can't ask, that itself is a relationship-deficit signal. Canon: Strategic Proposals proposal-management research — evaluators score on the rubric they were given, not on your narrative. Walk depth-first. Lock 1-3 before opening 4-7. After all 7 are answered, invoke rfp_parser.py → response_drafter.py → winrate_predictor.py in sequence. If question 6 lands on \"we don't have a threshold,\" set one now or no-bid.",
