BOE Narrative Generator

Generates a DCAA-defensible Basis of Estimate narrative, an LCAT-by-LCAT rationale table, and a gap report from a pricer's freeform IGCE paste, SOW/PWS text, and solicitation number. Use this skill when the user says "BOE narrative generator", "basis of estimate narrative", "BOE writer", "DCAA-defensible BOE", "BOE generator", "pricing narrative", or "BOE skill". Designed for pricing managers and federal-contractor prosumers who already built their IGCE in Excel, Costpoint, PROPRICER, or Unanet and need just the narrative without rebuilding the workbook. Auto-detects contract type (FFP, T&M, LH, CPFF, CPAF, CPIF) from input cues and emits the correct 8-section or 9-section BOE skeleton. Surfaces DAU estimating methods per activity, flags Expert Judgment alone as a DCAA fail mode, and enforces FAR 15.408 Table 15-2 and DCAA CAM Chapter 9 conventions. No FOUO, CUI, or classified content accepted.

What you get

A production-ready Claude skill that runs the workflow above on your own subscription — no SaaS contract, no procurement cycle, no third-party data layer. Install it and run it on the next pursuit that hits your desk.

How it ships

Delivered as installable source from Products/skills/boe-narrative-generator, with an install guide, a verification step, and a published scope (what it does, what it doesn't). Runs inside your Claude instance on the data you provide.

HIGH-TRUST discipline. Where this tool produces pricing, compliance, or past-performance artifacts, FAR/DFARS guardrails and "FOR INTERNAL ESTIMATE USE — NOT A PROPOSAL PRICE" disclaimers are embedded in the output. It does not replace qualified pricer, counsel, or color-team review.
