Requirement Assist — RFP upload & analytics

Paste or upload RFP text. SamMatch extracts contract fields and subcontracting goal analytics for human review — nothing goes live until your team confirms.

  • PIID / contract number
  • Primary 6-digit NAICS code
  • HUBZone, WOSB, SDVOSB, and 8(a) goal percentages
  • Suggested socio-economic category for the first match run
  • Supporting quote from the solicitation (source snippet)

Included with Prime ($299/mo). Your team approves every draft before ranked matching runs — extracted analytics are never auto-posted.

What you get after you sign up

Two paths — one platform. Primes subscribe for matching and compliance tools. Subcontractors claim a free profile and wait to be found.

Prime contractor path

  1. 1

    Create your Prime account

    Sign in, choose Prime, and confirm your company role. Subscribe at $299/mo when you are ready for full access.

  2. 2

    Upload an RFP (or enter fields manually)

    Use Requirement Assist to extract PIID, NAICS, goal percentages, and a source snippet from solicitation text — then approve before matching.

  3. 3

    Review ranked matches

    See ACTIVE, SAM.gov-verified small businesses scored by fit — not another manual SBS export.

  4. 4

    Reach out and log effort

    Message subs in-app. Every conversation supports your good-faith effort file.

  5. 5

    Track progress by contract

    Use the compliance dashboard to see category coverage across all active PIIDs before ISR / SSR season.

Subcontractor path

  1. 1

    Find your firm in the directory

    Search by legal name or UEI. SamMatch already caches ACTIVE SAM.gov registrants in federal contracting NAICS.

    Claim your listing

    Verify through the SAM.gov point of contact on file. Once verified, your profile is eligible for prime matching.

  3. 3

    Get alerted when primes post

    When a requirement matches your NAICS and certification, you receive an opportunity alert — free.

  5. 5

Pricing questions

What does Requirement Assist do?

Requirement Assist is SamMatch's RFP upload and field analytics tool for prime contractors. Upload or paste solicitation text and SamMatch extracts draft PIID, primary NAICS, subcontracting goal percentages, a suggested socio-economic category, and a supporting source snippet. Your team reviews and attests accuracy before the requirement enters ranked matching — SamMatch does not auto-post extracted data.

Why is Prime paid but subcontractor access is free?

Primes get ranked matching, the compliance dashboard, Requirement Assist, and outreach tools that replace days of manual SBS search. Subcontractors join free so the verified small business pool stays deep — a larger pool makes Prime subscriptions more valuable for compliance teams.

What is included in the $299/month Prime subscription?

Unlimited ranked matching against the live directory, Requirement Assist (RFP upload analytics), the FAR 52.219-9 compliance workspace, prime mailbox and outreach logging, SAM.gov + SBS data sync, and a team workspace with the billing owner plus one included teammate. Additional seats are billed separately.

Can I search firms that have not claimed a SamMatch profile?

Yes. Prime matching searches the full cached SAM.gov small business pool — not only claimed listings. Claimed, verified profiles surface first when scores tie, but you still get depth in narrow NAICS codes.
