Add proposal sections that are suggested by your company

1. During Brief scoping, Glo will display suggested proposal sections to you for selection. Proposal sections contain questions for providers to answer. Mandatory proposal sections must be included and cannot be edited by the project team, while recommended proposal sections are optional and can be edited. The Preview button shows the proposal section’s questions from the provider’s perspective.

2. Select the proposal sections and click “Continue” to add them to your project’s proposal requirements.

Add proposal sections from your company’s proposal section library

1. From the proposal builder screen, click on “Proposal Section Library”.

2. Browse reusable proposal sections in the library and add them to your project’s proposal requirements. A proposal section contains questions for providers to answer. The Preview button shows the proposal section’s questions from the provider’s perspective.

3. Save your changes by clicking “Save and Continue”.

Have Glo suggest sections and questions

While you build your questionnaire during project creation, Glo can suggest sections and questions based on your project description and scope, any scoping documents you uploaded, guidance you give Glo by prompt, and any existing questionnaire you upload. This is separate from the proposal sections your company suggests, which come from your organization's library.

You can add each suggestion as-is, edit it before adding it, or remove it. Suggestions are additive and never replace content already in your questionnaire.
