Licia · Tender Assistant

Present more tenders,
without growing the team.

Licia is the AI assistant that drafts the technical proposal from your own documentation —projects, financial standing, references— and lets you review and sign off. From €250 per month.

This page is about public tenders: administrative and technical tender documents, legal deadlines, award criteria and public-sector procurement.

Is your case a request for proposal from a private client? Then you are better served by automating your RFP response.

Licia is one of the assistants in onext Enterprise AI, the way to build your company's AI intelligence.

The problem

The tenders you don't submit aren't lost: you never even compete.

The deadline rules and the technical proposal is the bottleneck. The submission date is not negotiable. Everything else —reviewing the tender document, deciding whether you fit, assembling the administrative paperwork— can be squeezed; the technical proposal is the one that takes the weeks and ends up being written at night.

The knowledge is scattered. The projects that prove experience, the certificates, the financial-standing data and the proposals you have already submitted all exist — but they live in folders, emails and the heads of two people. Every tender starts by hunting for what you wrote last year.

You decide not to bid for lack of hands, not for lack of fit. That is the cost almost nobody accounts for: case files you fit and did not go for because there was no one to write them that week.

And there is a fourth, quieter one: in public procurement the award is formal and appealable. Every claim in the proposal has to be defensible before the contracting board with the document that backs it. Writing fast without being able to trace where each figure comes from is not speed: it is risk.

What Licia can do

From received tender document to submittable proposal

Four things, done end to end on your real documentation. None of them replaces your judgement: you review and sign off.

01

Respond to a public tender

The full flow in four phases: tender document → structure → proposal → delivery in DOCX or PDF. From received document to submittable document.

02

Tender-document analysis

It extracts scoring criteria, financial-standing requirements and critical warnings. In minutes you know whether you fit and where the points are.

03

Technical-proposal drafting

It writes the proposal section by section citing your corporate sources. Every claim points to the document it comes from, so you can defend it before the contracting board.

04

Results post-mortem

It records the outcome and draws out lessons. Every tender leaves the next one better prepared.

It is what makes Licia worth more in the second year than the first: your bank of proposals grows with every case file and the lessons from the post-mortem stay inside. It is not a tool that depreciates: it is an asset that appreciates.

The method

How Licia automates your response to public tenders

Licia indexes your documentation —submitted proposals, previous tender documents and corporate information— and integrates with PLACSP, Spain's public-sector procurement platform. From there it locates the tender-document requirements, writes with your real material and cites the source of every claim.

You review and sign off: there are human control points in the phases that require them. Nothing goes out to the contracting authority without a person on your team having validated it.

It is the same context engineering that onext deploys across the rest of its Enterprise AI assistants, applied to the vocabulary and the deadlines of public procurement.

The flow · 4 phases
  1. Phase 1 · Tender document
    Scoring criteria, financial-standing requirements and critical warnings, extracted and ordered.
  2. Phase 2 · Structure
    The proposal's outline, aligned with what the tender document scores.
  3. Phase 3 · Proposal
    Section-by-section drafting with your documentation, citing the source of every claim.
  4. Phase 4 · Delivery
    Final document in DOCX or PDF, ready for your review and signature.
Collections it indexes
Submitted proposals · previous tender documents · corporate information
Integration

Integrated with PLACSP, Spain's public-sector procurement platform

PLACSP is where the real work of anyone bidding for public-sector contracts lives: the case files, the administrative and technical tender documents, the dates. Licia integrates with it, so the case file enters the workflow without the round of downloading, renaming and sorting documents into folders that today eats up the first day of every tender.

The practical effect is that the bid/no-bid call comes sooner: instead of spending an afternoon working out whether you fit, you have the tender-document analysis —criteria, financial standing, warnings— on the table from the start. And the ones you decide not to bid for, you decide early, which is also time you get back.

What Licia doesn't do

Licia doesn't win the tender for you.

It writes with your material, does not invent references you don't have, and everything it produces goes through your review.

If a tender document asks for something your company cannot evidence, Licia tells you — it doesn't paper over it.

We say so because in public procurement over-promising is especially costly: the criteria are formal, the award is appealable, and a claim you cannot back with a document is a problem, not an ornament.

Licia · Tenders
€250/month

Per assistant and company. Whether it's used by your head of tenders or by all fifteen people in their department, it costs the same: you don't have to decide who gets a licence.

On top of that comes an initial setup — connecting and indexing your documentation and fine-tuning your company's context. It is what makes Licia write with your projects and your financial standing, and not in the generic.

Let's talk for 30 minutes: we'll see whether your tender volume justifies it and close the full figure for you before any commitment.

Licia is the catalogue's entry-level assistant. The other assistant available today is Marco, for marketing, and both are in the full onext Enterprise AI catalogue.

Frequently asked questions about AI for public tenders

What is the difference between responding to a public tender and responding to a private RFP?

A public tender is governed by public-procurement law: administrative and technical tender documents, non-extendable legal deadlines, published award criteria and a formal, appealable procedure. A private RFP is defined by the client and negotiated. Licia is built for the public sector. If your case is a request for proposal from a private client, the material that serves you is our analysis of how to automate your RFP response with AI.

Does Licia integrate with PLACSP, Spain's public-sector procurement platform?

Yes. Licia integrates with PLACSP, so the case files and their tender documents enter the workflow without downloading and reorganising documents by hand.

Does Licia guarantee that we win the tender?

No, and we do not say so anywhere. Licia helps you present more and better: it analyses the tender document, drafts the technical proposal with your real documentation and cites the source of every claim. The award depends on your bid, your financial standing and the competition. What Licia removes is the most common reason a company does not submit at all: not making the deadline.

Where does Licia get the content of the technical proposal from?

From your own indexed documentation: submitted proposals, previous tender documents and corporate information. It does not invent references or claim experience your company does not have. Every claim in the proposal points to the document it comes from, so you can defend it before the contracting board.

How much does Licia cost?

€250 per month per company, with unlimited users. On top of that comes the initial setup, which covers connecting and indexing your documentation and fine-tuning your company's context. The full figure is closed in the sales conversation, before any commitment.

How many tenders did you let slip last year?
Let's talk for 30 minutes.

We look at your volume of case files, your available documentation and which phase eats up your time. No commitment. You'll come out knowing whether Licia is worth it for you — and if not, we'll tell you.
