About this session

Procurement is using AI to grade your tender response at first pass. Are you?

AI sits in the first cut of evaluation already across Australian government tenders. But bid teams still treat AI as a writer, not an evaluator. This webinar will discuss how you can use AI to effectively evaluate your tender against the criteria, and sit as an adversary to find where to strengthen your response.

Nicole Dunbar (Therisano) and Jake Dierckx (AutoRFP.ai) walk through how bid teams use AI as an adversary against the evaluation criteria matrix and buyer personas, with worked examples aimed at Australian government tenders.

The edge is knowing whether your draft would hold up when the criteria, a buyer persona, and a critique pass sit on the other side.

What you'll learn

  • A Claude skill that scores drafts against the evaluation matrix
  • How to brief AI with buyer personas for adversarial review
  • Worked examples you can reuse on Australian government tenders
