Tips & best practices
✅ Give Muro your criteria. Upload the checklist your team already uses, or list it in the request. The score follows your rules.
💡 Add past projects. A simple list of past bids, with size, type and result, makes the comparison much better.
💡 Decide early. Run it the day the ITB arrives, before anyone starts a takeoff.
✅ Check the reasons, not just the score. Muro shows why. Your team makes the call.
Good to know
Without your criteria, Muro uses common go/no-go factors and tells you which ones it used.
The score is only as good as the information you add. Missing documents mean a less complete picture.
