OpenAsset, the leading digital asset management (DAM) platform purpose-built for architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) marketers, today launched the Proposal Power Index: a quick, interactive quiz that helps marketing and business development professionals evaluate the strength and efficiency of their proposal response workflows.

Why we built the Proposal Power Index quiz

Too often, AEC marketing teams spend more hours searching for content and managing revisions than on strategic proposal development and winning narratives. The Proposal Power Index helps respondents identify whether their current process empowers productivity or buries it under chaos in as little as two minutes. The quiz highlights broader bottlenecks and opportunities that AEC marketers have told us block the strategic thinking and creativity necessary for crafting compelling proposals.

“The best ideas happen when busywork disappears. With the Proposal Power Index, teams can benchmark their workflow health, uncover hidden inefficiencies, and discover a clear path forward, including how AI-enabled tools can transform the way proposals come together.” —Derek Ries, CMO, OpenAsset

Drawing responses across categories, including content sourcing, revision cycles, compliance review, and use of past winning material, the Proposal Power Index gives marketers actionable insights into how mature and efficient their process really is — or isn’t— and where meaningful improvements can be made.

Key insights quiz takers can expect from the Proposal Power Index:

  • Areas where specific content automation could save you time
  • Whether your proposal creation workflows are structured for efficiency
  • How the proposal process affects your satisfaction, strategic thinking time, and sense of empowerment
  • And much more!

The Proposal Power Index also surfaces how the right technology, particularly Shred.ai, OpenAsset’s AI-powered proposal writing assistant, can tackle common pain points by centralizing proposal content and automating manual tasks. Shred.ai leverages a firm’s own past proposals and digital assets to suggest relevant content, cut compliance risks, and accelerate first drafts, empowering marketers to focus on winning themes rather than formatting and search.

“The RFP response process moves incredibly fast. Marketers need clear diagnostic tools like the Proposal Power Index, and intelligent systems like Shred.ai, to help them stay competitive, efficient, and creative.” —Rachelle Ray, Head of AEC Marketing Innovation, OpenAsset
