02 / Commercial analysis
Evaluate whether an opportunity is commercially viable.
Once requirements are structured, Brisora evaluates whether participating is commercially sound — comparing supplier and BOM options against landed cost, margin and feasibility constraints.
What gets compared, and on what basis.
- BOM comparison across candidate configurations, with unresolved or non-compliant options excluded rather than ranked optimistically
- Landed-cost reasoning across component costs — freight, duty, tax, handling, FX and financing — each resolved to a verified, estimated or unknown status
- Gross-margin controls that gate on the worst-case landed cost, not the best case
- Participation feasibility per lot: proceed, partner required, more evidence needed, or no-go
- Partner, reliance and subcontracting structure analysis for eligibility
| Option | Landed cost | Margin | Risk | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Supplier A | VERIFIED | Above floor | Low | Complete |
| Supplier B | ESTIMATED | Near floor | Medium | Partial |
| Supplier C | UNKNOWN | Unresolved | High | Missing FX rate |
Landed-cost components
Worst case governs the decision, not best case.
Every component below is resolved to a verified, estimated or unknown status. A margin check runs against the worst-case total, so an unresolved component narrows the outcome rather than being dropped from the total.
Component cost
The base unit or BOM cost from the supplier or bill of materials.
Freight
Transport cost to the delivery point, by the applicable route and mode.
Duty and tax
Import duty, tariff classification and applicable tax, where determinable.
Handling
Customs clearance, warehousing and handling costs along the route.
FX
Currency conversion exposure between quote currency and settlement currency.
Financing
Cost of capital tied up between commitment and payment.
Feasibility outcomes
Four outcomes per lot, not one verdict per tender.
Feasibility is evaluated lot by lot. A tender with ten lots can produce ten different outcomes, each with its own evidence and reasoning — see how this connects to policy in the architecture.
Proceed
Cost, margin and eligibility evidence support participating as evaluated.
Partner required
Eligibility depends on a partner, subcontractor or reliance structure.
More evidence needed
A required input — cost, quantity or eligibility evidence — is unresolved.
No-go
Cost, margin or eligibility constraints rule out participation as evaluated.

Every commercial action is checked against an explicit, human-issued mandate before it can proceed.
