Qualifications built from projects you've already described well.
Architecture and engineering work is often won on qualifications before price is discussed. Paavya helps you decide which pursuits suit your portfolio, assembles project descriptions and team experience from your approved records, and coordinates the principals who have to sign off.
Project descriptions and team bios are reused with their approval attached.
Each pursuit's decision is recorded with its reasons.
What architecture and engineering bids ask of you
Qualifications first
Many public A/E selections rank firms on qualifications before negotiating fees, so the project portfolio and team experience carry the response.
Relevant projects and named staff
Similar project types, sizes and delivery methods, with the people who did the work named.
Principal time
Principals review and sign every pursuit while running projects. Their hours are the scarcest resource in the response.
Where Paavya does the work
The same seven steps every pursuit runs through, with the parts that matter most for architecture and engineering work.
Decide where your portfolio is strongest
Decide reads past performance and buyer history, so principals spend time on pursuits the portfolio supports.
