DIMENSION 01
Adjacent-Capability Match
Surface contractors who have done something harder than the requirement, on a comparable axis, even when the literal industry-code match misses them.
Encore Services LLC
The decision intelligence engine senior contracting officers wish they had time to build themselves.
EADIE encodes the deeper market research and sources sought methodology senior COs already perform by hand, scales it with a pause-resume AI assistant that stays bound to your workspace, and produces audit trails that withstand protest review.

Beyond the standard four-axis match
Protest-Defensible
Auditable reasoning chain on every decision
The Problem
The standard four-axis match is missing most of how senior COs actually think.
Federal contractor search today operates on four axes: industry code, business size, past performance, price. That framework rewards what the giants are built to win on. It misses adjacent-capable smaller firms, modern-methodology innovators, and specialists who know the specific system the requirement touches.
Senior contracting officers already perform a deeper, multi-dimensional analysis by hand. It takes weeks per acquisition. Most COs do not have the time. The few who do cannot easily share their methodology with teammates or successors, cannot consistently document it for protest defense, and cannot calibrate it across acquisitions.
EADIE codifies that methodology, scales it, and produces the documentation that survives review.
The Ten Dimensions
The evaluation framework, end to end.
Each dimension is independently scorable, weightable, explainable, and accessible to the AI assistant as a conversational surface during the workflow.
DIMENSION 02
Modern-Methodology Premium
Score the methodology-modernity of each contractor against the requirement's methodology-sensitivity. Reward modern delivery where it produces better outcomes.
DIMENSION 03
Incumbent-Overcommitment Risk
Quantify the realistic risk of degraded delivery when a giant incumbent's current obligation pipeline exceeds their estimated capacity.
DIMENSION 04
Specialized-Domain Depth
Industry codes are coarse. Surface the contractors who have actually worked the specific system, regulation, or agency the requirement touches.
DIMENSION 05
Geographic and Cultural Fit
For requirements that benefit from local presence, weight contractors by surge-response capability, regional labor pool, and historical work in the region.
DIMENSION 06
Innovation Trajectory
Direction matters. Trailing trend across R&D investment, technical hiring, patents, SBIR pipeline, and publication activity.
DIMENSION 07
Subcontractor Network Quality
Evaluate the prime plus the planned or historical sub stack as a network. Flag where a weak prime has a strong network and vice versa.
DIMENSION 08
Counter-Concentration Value
Where category concentration exceeds policy-defined thresholds, surface qualified alternatives outside the top-N incumbents.
DIMENSION 09
Set-Aside-Beyond-Set-Aside
Treat set-aside status as one dimension among many. Surface contractors who match across multiple beneficial dimensions simultaneously.
DIMENSION 10
Cost-of-Failure Asymmetry
Quantify the asymmetric expected cost of contractor failure per archetype. Frame the risk-of-award decision honestly.
The Workflow
Pause anywhere. Ask anything. Resume with refinements applied.
Senior contracting officers do not run wizards end to end and then refine. They run, stop, think, refine, run, stop, think, refine, dozens of times per acquisition. EADIE is built around that reality. A persistent AI assistant travels with you across every step, bound to your active workspace, grounded only in your loaded methodology, your ingested data, and your prior decisions.
01
Pause
At any moment, in any step, you ask. The workspace state freezes in place. The AI assistant is already loaded with everything you have configured, ingested, and scored.
02
Refine
Suggested adjustments to weights, sources, dealbreakers, or dimensions are tagged as applied (workspace state updates and re-scores) or observational (logged but no change). Every exchange enters the audit trail.
03
Resume
Continue the analysis with refinements incorporated. Session-spanning persistence lets you close and resume days later, or hand the workspace to a teammate with full reasoning context intact.
Workspace forking and collaboration, built in
Run a what-if analysis in parallel without losing the original. Hand a workspace to a junior CO with the full reasoning chain preserved. Promote a methodology from personal to team to agency to federation level. Methodology knowledge transfers as a side effect of normal use.
Every refinement, every pause, every conversational exchange is captured in a configurable audit trail with disclosure controls the contracting officer sets per methodology.
Protest Defense
An auditable reasoning chain on every decision.
Federal acquisition protests are won and lost on documentation. EADIE produces a decision package that captures not just the result, but the full reasoning chain that produced it. Counter-arguments pre-staged. Protest grounds pre-addressed. Disclosure of conversational reasoning configurable per methodology.
Sources Sought Memo
The market research document, grounded in the analysis with full citation trail.
Decision Matrix
Per-dimension scores, weights, and resulting ranking, with every cell traceable to a source.
Counter-Argument Package
For each top-ranked contractor, the strongest argument against, with documented response.
CO Justification Statement
Narrative explaining the methodology applied and why it produces a defensible award basis.
Reasoning Trail
Summarized assistant exchange history by default. Full transcripts available on request. CO controls per methodology.
Protest-Defense Brief
Pre-staged response to the three most likely protest grounds for the acquisition type and award decision.
Built by federal-acquisition operators, for federal-acquisition operators.
Federal-first by design
EADIE is built for the Federal Acquisition Regulation, agency supplements, GAO protest precedent, and the realities of how contracting offices operate. Not a civilian tool retrofitted for government.
Gated premium tier
Available as a stand-alone application and as a gated add-on to existing federal procurement platforms. Per-user, team, or office-wide entitlement. Senior CO depth without disrupting your standard workflow.
Compound learning across acquisitions
Methodologies improve over time based on observed outcomes. Anonymized workspace data tightens dimension scoring and refines default methodology profiles. Every acquisition makes the next one sharper.
U.S. Provisional Patent Application Filed
EADIE's multi-dimensional evaluation framework, methodology-as-object architecture, stateful workflow with persistent context-bound AI assistant, and audit-trail-grounded refinement chat are subject to a pending U.S. provisional patent application.
Available for federal briefings and pilots.
