RFP Response Automation — Canonical Workflow
RFP Response Automation: provisional AI workflow implementation reference with candidate models, providers, tools, and architecture.
Overview
RFP response automation ingests an incoming request for proposal, extracts individual questions using a structured extraction model, and retrieves the best-matching answer from a versioned answer library for each question. A language model rewrites each retrieved answer to match the RFP's specific framing and context, with every claim linked back to the source answer-library entry and its approval date. Questions that have no library match are flagged for a subject-matter expert rather than synthesised, ensuring the final response is fully auditable and defensible.
