## For agents

Set up a focused routine for discovering suitable work and following changes to selected federal opportunities.

- The user's target market or requirement and authorized company evidence.

- A G2X account for the supported free manual research path; separately authorized Lumen access for the suggested document-analysis prompt.

1. **Define the market and review responsibility** Ask what the company sells, where it can deliver, which buyers it targets and who will review opportunity changes. Distinguish discovering new work from following a known solicitation. Do not assume a preferred agency, nationwide delivery or eligibility the user has not established.

2. **Prepare a useful procurement search** Use G2X standard federal opportunity search with relevant service terms and supported agency, location, notice-type or eligibility filters. Read sample results and refine the search before proposing a Saved View. Saved Views preserve filters and rerun searches; they do not send matching-procurement email alerts. Save a view only when the user requests it and verify the saved filters. [Open in G2X](https://g2x.com/docs/workflows/saved-searches)

3. **Follow selected federal records** Open each actual opportunity record and inspect Watch, its supported update triggers and notification settings. With the user's instruction, watch the record and verify its saved state and delivery preference. Check account notification preferences as well. Do not promise every change, instant delivery or automatic SLED alerts. The free path includes a limited Watchlist; select records tied to an active decision.

4. **Assess changed documents** Open the current original notice and attachments before reporting a change. With authorized Lumen access, upload only approved earlier and revised documents and confirm they are available. Suggested prompt: Compare these solicitation versions. Cite each changed passage, explain which response assumptions may need revision and identify missing attachments or unresolved dates. Follow up: What does our technical or pricing lead need to decide? A manual document comparison is the free alternative. Do not claim an unperformed comparison is complete.

5. **Return the monitoring plan** Return the proposed searches, selected record URLs, supported notification choices, review responsibility and next review dates. For SLED, use saved procurement searches and the issuing portal's update instructions; propose a CRM next action. Distinguish changes actually observed from future monitoring. Do not change records, notification subscriptions or contact a buyer without the user's instruction. [Open in G2X](https://g2x.com/docs/account/choose-your-alerts)

Expected result: A practical opportunity-monitoring plan with actual source links, focused searches, selected federal watches and clear review responsibilities.
