AI for Writing and Scoring Procurement RFPs
AI builds and scores RFPs efficiently, but vendor selection still hinges on relationships and references.
Adults & Professionals · Operations & Automation · ~7 min read
The premise
AI can draft and score RFPs in a fraction of the usual time, but the final vendor decision should weigh references and chemistry that AI cannot evaluate.
What AI does well here
- Draft an RFP from a requirements doc with weighted sections
- Build a scoring rubric with explicit criteria
- Compare vendor responses side by side
- Generate clarifying questions for vague answers
What AI cannot do
- Make a reference call
- Know which vendor will actually ship on time
- Predict the vendor's behavior after the contract is signed
- Sense red flags from a sales call
