Pricing

Costs less than one missed opportunity.

Pricing here is a conversation, not a price list. Twenty minutes about your team and your scope, and we send back a quote that fits.

Before we talk pricing

What status quo already costs.

Most pricing conversations start at “what does it cost.” The better question is what the existing way of working is already costing the firm. Three places that cost shows up.

One tender, read too late.

The team finds a high-fit bid in the second week of an eight-week submission window. The pricing is rushed. The methodology gets recycled from something close enough. The partner choice is a gut call rather than a deliberate one. The firm bids it because it would be a great win, then wonders why the win never comes.

Senior hours on the wrong work.

A senior estimator spends Tuesday and Wednesday reading a 1200-page tender. They are needed in pricing review on Wednesday afternoon and they show up half-prepared. The firm runs on what its most expensive people can read in the time they have. That is not a software problem to solve later. It is the firm’s default operating mode.

The next bid starts from scratch.

Every methodology gets written fresh. Every risk register rebuilt. Every comparison to past projects done from someone remembering rather than from a system that knows. The firm gets older without getting smarter. Whatever pricing Arched puts in a quote is being weighed against this, every day, whether anyone names it.

The math

What does Arched need to do to pay for itself?

Three independent thresholds. Crossing any one of them puts the engagement well into profit for a typical firm. Most cross all three inside ninety days.

One bid a quarter.

Catching one additional matched tender per quarter that the team would otherwise have missed. At typical infrastructure contract values, the platform pays for itself many times over on that single win.

Four hours a day.

Four hours per BD team member, recaptured from portal monitoring, document reading, and qualification work. Across a typical BD team that is over a thousand senior-rate hours returned to higher-leverage work over a year.

Three points of hit rate.

Moving the bid-to-win ratio from three percent to six percent on the tenders you pursue. Typical in the first ninety days. Two or three additional wins per year, and the platform cost is a rounding error against any one of them.

We model this specifically on the scoping call. Your average contract value, your category mix, and your current win rate decide where the math actually lands for you.

Pricing questions we get

The questions that come up on the call.

01.Why isn't a number on this page?
Because the honest number depends on team size, the sources you need watched, the integrations you want, and your compliance posture. The pick-a-plan pattern creates expectation mismatches on a mid-market B2B product. A twenty-minute scoping call gets you a straightforward quote and saves a month of onboarding surprises.
02.Is there a pilot?
We run a two-week pilot on a focused slice of your work: a couple of source categories, your actual credentials, real tenders. It is not self-serve. We configure it so the matches reflect what you would see in production. At the end you get a report of what surfaced and what would have been missed.
03.Can we start narrow and expand?
Yes. Most firms begin with a focused source set and one or two project categories, then expand once they have validated the matching quality against their actual win profile. The engagement scales as the firm does.
04.How long is onboarding?
From contract signature to the first matched tender in the team's inbox is typically five to ten business days. Most of the work is on our side: credential profile build, source linking, category calibration. Your team gets a single 45-minute walkthrough before daily alerts start.
05.Annual or monthly?
Both are available, with a meaningful discount on annual. Annual also unlocks a named customer-success check-in each quarter. Monthly works if you want to validate the fit before committing. Most firms shift to annual after the first ninety days.
06.What happens if we stop?
You keep the credential work we built together. It is yours. Any bid history or parsed documents we shipped into your workspace stay with you. Data export is available in structured JSON or CSV on thirty days notice.

Let’s scope it together.

Twenty minutes. We learn about your team, the sources you care about, and the shape of the integration. We come back with a quote and a plan that fits.
