Elevate Proposal Management with Enhanced Security and AI Flexibility: What’s New in ProPricer Q4

For government contractors (GovCon), the pressure to deliver secure, compliant and high-quality proposals continues to rise. Between stricter cybersecurity mandates, increasing audit expectations and growing use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) across the industry, teams need tools that are not only powerful - but adaptive, governed and built for the realities of federal contracting. And with modernization initiatives under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and Golden Dome creating new opportunities in GovCon and A&D, firms must move fast without compromising security or accuracy.

The Q4 ProPricer release delivers on these needs - strengthening security, expanding AI flexibility, and introducing usability improvements that make proposal development more compliant, adaptive and efficient.

Whether you’re modernizing your pricing environment or scaling proposal operations across a large organization, these enhancements help you work with greater confidence where it matters most.

Fortifying Security & Compliance Standards

CAC Card Authentication

This release introduces CAC-based authentication, enabling certificate-driven login in ProPricer Contractor (CE) for organizations operating in government and defense environments.

New certificate-based login type to support authentication via Common Access Card (CAC)

By aligning with DoD-approved identity standards, ProPricer makes it easier for teams to meet security requirements without adding friction to the user experience.

Audit Log for OpenTelemetry

Compliance teams need deep visibility into system activity, especially during proposal development. With new OpenTelemetry-based audit log export, organizations can stream ProPricer logs directly into enterprise monitoring tools like Splunk, Grafana or Datadog.

This gives administrators real-time insight into user actions, supporting faster diagnostics, cleaner audits and stronger governance.

Monitor user and system actions in real time using external observability tools

Recycling Bin Retention Timer

To help teams enforce data lifecycle controls, the new Recycling Bin Retention Timer automatically clears deleted items after a configurable period.

This reduces clutter, aligns with retention policies and ensures cleaner, more maintainable environments.

Enhances data hygiene and system performance by automatically purging deleted items after a configurable period

Expanding AI Flexibility and Capability

Ask Dela Now Supports Both Local and Cloud LLMs

Contractors have different AI readiness levels and different data governance requirements. Some can use cloud-based AI models; others must operate entirely on-premise.

This release expands Ask Dela to support both:

• Self-hosted or local LLMs for secure or air-gapped environments
• Cloud-based LLMs such as Azure OpenAI for scalability and speed

Only one model can be active at a time, ensuring clarity, compliance and controlled AI usage. Administrators have full configurability and all actions are auditable. This flexibility allows every organization to adopt AI at its own pace, in alignment with its security posture.

Agentic AI in BOE Pro for Smarter Formula Generation

Estimators often spend significant time reviewing, cleaning and validating formulas. The new Agentic AI formula enhancement automates much of that work by:

• Removing irrelevant or non-useful formulas
• Applying clean, readable naming conventions
• Suggesting appropriate resources
• Allowing task assignment directly from the confirmation window

This reduces manual effort, improves consistency and accelerates BOE development.

Improve the formula confirmation experience by reducing manual work and improving clarity

Cost Volume Pro Enhancements: Accelerate Document Workflows

Teams can now import .docx files directly into Cost Volume Pro (CVP) with automatic mapping of headings to sections - preserving structure and reducing document setup time.

This is especially valuable for large cost volumes built from multi-author Word files. enables Users can streamline document setup by importing .docx files directly into CVP's Section View

Add Sections Directly from Section View

A new integrated “+ Add Section” option streamlines navigation, making it easier to add new content without leaving the main editing pane.
