ProPricer Q3 2024

Federal agencies and contractors that must submit CAS/FAR-compliant proposals when above the TINA threshold must also effectively manage cost, pricing and compliance data and facilitate the capture, pricing, submission, audit and negotiation processes to win more bids. Proposal pricing software that offers enhanced usability and seamless integration is crucial for maintaining efficiency and accuracy in achieving that goal. The latest updates to the ProPricer suite streamline processes, improve user experience and ensure compatibility across various products. These enhancements empower users to manage their pricing proposals more effectively, leading to better decision-making and increased productivity.

Core Products are Now on a Quarterly Release Schedule

This release marks the start of our new release schedule for ProPricer Contractor Edition and Government Edition. To help maintain compatibility with our companion products, and to ensure that our government agency customers have access to the latest features, all products will be released each quarter.

Companion Products Gain User-Driven Enhancements

ProPricer’s companion products focus on our commitment to providing a comprehensive solution that caters to the diverse needs of its users, ensuring transparency, consistent analysis, efficient audits and streamlined negotiations across the board. The integration of these products into the ProPricer suite underscores our dedication to innovation and customer-driven enhancements.

Enhancing Data Management and Accessibility in BOE Pro

Starting with BOE Pro 3.5.104.1, users can look forward to a Bulk Import/Edit feature that simplifies the management of large datasets, including handling duplicates. This will help estimators and subject matter experts import data to multiple destinations at the same time, cutting down on overall import time. With Bulk Edit capabilities, you’ll be able to modify more than one row of data at a time, making it easy to finalize quick changes at the end of the proposal cycle.

The introduction of the Deltek Color Scheme will provide a fresh visual update, while the Alt-Text will now include Resource Descriptions for better accessibility making it easier for users to see relevant information about the resource without having to go into the details via a separate step.

A significant update to the synchronization feature for Travel and CERs ensures that Basis of Estimates (BOEs) are reset if updates occur in ProPricer Contractor Edition. This means that proposal managers and estimators alike will be notified when something changes, and be able to adjust any justification text so it always matches.

Cost Volume Pro Gets Contextual Help

Cost Volume Pro 3.5.104.1 will see an update to Deltek branding as well as the creation of a dedicated Help Website, enhancing our built-in support for users. Now all users will be able to click the help icon to see contextual help on any screen they’re on.

Don’t Worry, Be API

Connect for Web is expanding its capabilities with access to Audit Logs via our API, and a more efficient process with a Single Call for P Sheet Return Data, optimizing data retrieval for external applications. For those with external applications connected to the ProPricer database with their own API programs, more data will be available for internal reporting. IT will be able to access logs without access to the application.

Added Analytic Capabilities in Management Console

Management Console will now include Global Resource Fields in the Pivot Grid, offering a more comprehensive view of resources and giving you additional fields to filter by. Additionally, users can filter the proposal list by Proposal Selection, making it easier to narrow down which proposals you’d like to report on, a feature specifically requested by our user community.
