Vendor Shortlist Builder
Vendor Shortlist Builder turns vendor selection & rfp material into an implementation scaffold with a concrete vendor requirement-to-response trace, shortlist vendor scoring rationale, and selection procurement decision memo. It is built for teams that need a usable draft artifact, not a broad summary with a familiar title. The skill asks for RFP, vendor answer, or procurement notes, must-have requirements and scoring criteria, and stakeholder concerns and commercial constraints up front, then organizes the output around vendor, shortlist, selection, rfp, and research. It is delivered with adapters for Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, and Antigravity so teams can use the same workflow across their preferred agent environment. Vendor Shortlist Builder is scoped to the Vendor Selection & RFP workflow and is distinct from adjacent catalog skills by producing this specific deliverable rather than a broad summary.

Vendor Shortlist Builder — Sample Brief
Headline
Builds a vendor selection artifact for vendor shortlist builder work, turning RFP, vendor answer, or procurement notes, must-have requirements and scoring criteria, and stakeholder concerns and commercial constraints into vendor requirement-to-response trace, shortlist vendor scoring rationale, and selection procurement decision memo. For public source packet, the example focuses on a concrete implementation scaffold: the evidence to use, the fields a reviewer can inspect, and the owner decision needed before the work leaves draft state.
Evidence Packet
| Input | Example | Status |
|---|---|---|
| RFP, vendor answer, or procurement notes | public source packet notes and excerpts | Provided |
| must-have requirements and scoring criteria | Three representative examples from the current workflow | Reviewed |
| stakeholder concerns and commercial constraints | Approval threshold and final reviewer | Confirm |
| decision owner and procurement timeline | Vendor Selection & RFP owner and downstream audience | Ready |
Review Focus
| Lens | What this skill must inspect | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Vendor | Evidence specific to vendor shortlist builder vendor / shortlist / selection | Keeps the artifact tied to the actual source packet |
| Shortlist | The boundary between Vendor Shortlist Builder and adjacent Vendor Selection & RFP skills | Keeps this skill from absorbing neighboring workflows |
| Selection | The final reviewer decision, rejection reason, or edit path | Gives the next owner a clear approval or edit path |
Acceptance Checks
| Check | Required evidence | Review action |
|---|---|---|
| Vendor depth | Trace requirement, vendor response, scoring rationale, gap, commercial concern, and decision owner. | Keep, revise, or ask a targeted follow-up |
| Shortlist boundary | Separate must-have failures from negotiable gaps and evidence-quality concerns. | Confirm this is not a renamed adjacent bundle skill |
| Builder handoff | Produce a procurement-ready decision memo or question list, not a generic vendor ranking. | Assign the owner decision before final use |

Vendor Shortlist Builder
Best when vendor selection & rfp work needs a concrete implementation scaffold.
Hold back
Missing evidence
Best deferred when a key input would change the artifact.
Reviewer note
The output is structured so an operator can validate the draft, edit the artifact, and hand it to the next owner without re-reading the entire packet. The final answer should label unknowns plainly and avoid inventing metrics, policies, quotes, or commitments.
This sample illustrates the skill's output format. Analysis is based on publicly available information; the companies and sources named are illustrative examples.
