Search Smarter in the Proposal Library

The Proposal Writer is linked to your own Proposal Library: a collection of previous answers, sections and proposals. This library is a powerful tool for working faster and more consistently, provided you know how to search it effectively.

Here's how to do it the smart way:
 
  1. Select a short, clear search term in your text.
    Think of: "sustainability in the construction sector" or "risk analysis for maintenance".
    ➤ Do not use entire sentences or paragraphs. The more concise your selection, the better the system will find relevant matches.
  2. Click 'Library Inspiration'.
    On the right-hand side, a side panel opens with text excerpts from previous proposals.
  3. Explore the suggestions.
    The results are based on content similarity with your selection.
Results not what you're looking for? Refine your search:
 
  1. Adjust your search term. Add more context or specific terms.
  2. Use filters on the right-hand side.
  3. Product group
  4. Region
  5. Contracting Authority
  6. Award criteria (quality, sustainability, etc.)
  7. Show more results.
    ➤ You can increase the number of results from 5 to 10, 15 or 20 for a broader overview.
 
 
🧩 Where do those filters come from?
The filters you can use in the Library are linked to information fields that you assign to projects in Altura. These include fields such as:
  1. Industry or sector
  2. Themes or areas of expertise 
 
📌 Important: Are these information fields not yet set up in your environment? Please contact your Customer Success Manager or check out the instructions in our Help Centre on how to easily set up these information fields yourself.
 
Once these fields are filled in correctly, you can make the most of the filters in the Library – and it will become easier and easier to quickly find the right content.
