RFP deadline tracking checklist.

Track public RFP deadlines with source references, owners, statuses, and verification notes.

Practical explanation

Deadline review should capture the date, source, owner, time zone, submission method, and verification status in one place.

Track Q&A dates, proposal due dates, portal cutoffs, site visits, amendment acknowledgments, and required pre-submission steps.

Use source citations so a reviewer can verify whether an amendment or Q&A response changed the date.

Treat extracted dates as candidates until a human confirms the governing source.

How to use this during RFP review
  • Record every date with a source citation.
  • Check amendments before marking a date verified.
  • Assign a review owner for each deadline.
  • Use a separate calendar only after the source-backed table is reviewed.
Common mistakes
  • Losing the source reference after copying text into notes.
  • Treating a draft artifact as final proposal guidance.
  • Ordinary business-confidential proposal material may be stored and manually organized only in a private_storage_only project. AI features, Human Review, and background processing are locked off for that project.
How SourceFlag helps
  • SourceFlag keeps answers, citations, excerpts, review flags, and proposal handoff work tied to the original public solicitation package.
  • Teams can inspect public-opportunity summaries before creating a workspace.
  • AI features and Human Review may be used only with customer-authorized public or unclassified solicitation material. Ordinary business-confidential proposal material may be stored and manually organized only in a private_storage_only project. AI features, Human Review, and background processing are locked off for that project. AI features, Human Review, and background processing are locked off for that project. Human review remains required before reliance.
