Government · Custom AI DevelopmentCustom AI development for government contractors
Proposal software helps you write. It doesn’t run your whole capture pipeline. Custom AI development does.
RFP tools, compliance matrices, and CRMs each handle a piece. Government contracting spans opportunity discovery on SAM.gov, capture, proposal development, compliance, and post-award reporting — across Deltek and Unanet, all at once.
Nexum builds custom AI systems for government contractors — opportunity-to-proposal pipelines and compliance automation wired into Deltek, Unanet, and SAM.gov. A self-hosted option (OpenClaw) is available for sensitive data. Delivered in 6-8 weeks at a fixed price from $12,500.
Every build is scoped to your shop during a free diagnosis. These are the custom AI systems government contractors most often ask us to build.
01
Opportunity discovery & qualification
Monitors SAM.gov, GovWin, and grants.gov, scores each opportunity against your capabilities, NAICS codes, and past performance, and alerts your capture team with a structured fit summary — so nothing relevant is missed and nothing irrelevant wastes time.

02
RFP & proposal automation
Parses the solicitation, builds the compliance matrix from Sections L and M, drafts sections from your past-performance and proposal library, assembles the document, and checks compliance — automating the repetitive 90% so your team focuses on strategy and win themes.

HOW WE BUILD IT
From audit to production in 6-8 weeks
Fixed price confirmed before any build begins. Your team keeps operating normally throughout.
Weeks 1-2
Audit & architecture
We map your operation, the systems involved, and the exact workflows to automate, then design the system architecture and confirm a fixed price before any build begins.
Weeks 3-6
Build & integration
We build the AI logic and integrate it with your existing tools and data sources. Your team keeps operating normally throughout — no disruption.
Weeks 6-7
Testing & onboarding
We test every scenario against real data and walk your team through what the AI handles and what escalates to them. No technical training required.
Weeks 7-8+
Go-live & maintenance
The system goes live with documentation, a handover walkthrough, and a 30-day support window. Ongoing partnership keeps it optimized as you grow.
For sensitive or controlled data, builds can be deployed self-hosted via OpenClaw — keeping data inside your environment with no dependency on third-party cloud AI services.
