CHOOSING THE WORKFLOW

Use the product that matches the job.

The deciding question is whether your team needs broad government market intelligence or a narrower commercial AV qualification workflow.

01

Choose GovTribe

Choose GovTribe when you need broad federal or state and local market data, award research, vendor and buyer intelligence, capture tools, or workflows beyond AV.

02

Choose AV BidSignal

Choose AV BidSignal when your team mainly needs current commercial AV notices screened for relevance and the requirements that drive a pursuit decision.

03

Use both when needed

Use GovTribe for broad market intelligence and capture research, then use an AV-specific shortlist to reduce day-to-day notice review for your integration team.
