PROPOSAL REVIEW FOR CONSULTING PURSUITS

Catch it in the proposal.
Not in delivery.

Stratum checks your proposal draft against the client's requirements and your supporting evidence. Each finding points to the requirement and the proposal page behind it, so your team can fix it before you submit.

What a review flags

  • Requirements your draft doesn't address
  • Claims your supporting evidence doesn't back up
  • Statements that conflict across your proposal material

Proposal Review: USD 1,000 for 10 completed reviews · valid 90 days · no automatic renewal.

Suggested wording only. Your team decides every change.

THE OUTPUT

See one finding, start to finish.

This prepared sample shows what a review returns: the client requirement, the proposal page that misses it, the finding and suggested wording your team can accept, edit, decline or leave open.

HOW A REVIEW WORKS

You supply the material.
Stratum checks it. Your team decides.

  1. 01

    You supply

    Proposal draft
    Bid requirements
    Supporting evidence (optional)

    Your proposal draft, the bid requirements you want it checked against (an RFP, a client brief or other written requirements) and, if you have it, supporting evidence you're authorized to share.

  2. 02

    Stratum checks

    Against the client's requirements
    Against your supporting evidence
    Across your proposal material

    Stratum compares the draft with the requirements and your evidence. Findings are prioritized, and each one points to the requirement and the proposal page behind it. Anything it can't confirm is marked open, not guessed.

  3. 03

    Your team decides

    Review PDF
    Correction map

    Your choices for each finding:

    • Accept
    • Edit
    • Decline
    • Leave open

    You get a review PDF and a correction map. For each finding, your team accepts, edits, declines or leaves it open. Suggested wording never changes your original files.

Not included in Proposal Review: reviewing a supplied statement of work, native redlines or legal certification.

WHERE STRATUM FITS

Your team keeps the judgment.
Stratum takes the first pass.

The cheapest place to fix a missed commitment is before the client sees it.

01 / THE FIRST PASS


Today

Requirement traceability, compliance checks and the commitments that slip between discovery and the proposal. Analyst and senior-manager hours.

With Stratum

The first pass arrives done, with every finding tied to its source.

02 / THE SECOND READ


Today

An outside review happens only on bids big enough to justify one.

With Stratum

A second read before submission on routine bids too, not only the largest.

03 / PARTNER TIME


Today

Partners spend review time rechecking routine bids.

With Stratum

Routine bids arrive checked, with open questions named. Partner time goes to judgment and the bids that matter most.

Stratum doesn't replace the people who own the work. It makes their judgment defensible and surfaces the expensive mistake before it goes out.

STRATUM AND GENERAL AI

Built for the review, not the conversation.

General AI chat can read a proposal and answer questions about it. Stratum applies the same review structure every time and returns a review PDF and a correction map.
