Inside the Lucius Tender Analysis Workflow

Every tender uploaded to Lucius goes through the same five steps. Each one produces something a bid team can act on, with the page it comes from, not a generic summary.

1. 01

   1. Document ingestion across formats

   PDFs, Word files, Excel scoresheets, images and a ZIP of the whole pack, up to 40 MB a file. Scanned pages are read as well as text, so a scanned procurement form is not skipped.

2. 02

   2. Compliance matrix extraction

   Every requirement is listed with its page, the clause number where the document gives one, a quote from the source and a severity. Pass or fail gates, such as a minimum turnover or a mandatory certificate, are grouped under eligibility, so a gate you cannot meet shows before you read further.

3. 03

   3. Risk surface audit

   Liquidated damages and service credits, liability caps and indemnities (with a row of its own when no cap is found), payment terms, bonds, insurance, termination, TUPE and intellectual property are flagged, each with its clause, the exact wording, its page and a short note naming the risk. The verdict card adds a risk score from 0 to 100, counted from the high and medium risks and the mandatory requirements.

4. 04

   4. Clause-vs-clause contradiction detection

   Deep review reads the requirements against each other and lists the pairs that contradict, with both quotes and their pages. For instance, "remote delivery permitted" in Section 5.3 is contradicted by "on-site presence required" in Section 8.2. These are the traps that disqualify bids in compliance review even when every individual section reads fine in isolation.

5. 05

   5. Response draft generation

   Lucius drafts a first response from the tender and your company documents, drawing on the past bids in your Bid Library. A new draft keeps the previous one, so a senior writer can compare versions before signing off. Export to Word on your company's own template, uploaded once in Settings, so its headers, footers, fonts and styles carry through.
