  2. Click a tab: Forecasts for you, All forecasts or Saved.
  3. Click a time card to narrow by timing. For example, Act now.
  4. Click All buyers, Federal or State and local to choose the buyers.
  5. Click a forecast to open it.
The Forecasts page with the five time cards, the three tabs and the buyer switch.

What each tab shows

  • Forecasts for you: the forecasts that Hunter matched to your business. Best match comes first.
  • All forecasts: every forecast, including the ones that Hunter rates as a weak fit.
  • Saved: the forecasts that you track. See Track or untrack a forecast.

What each time card shows

  • Act now: opens within 45 days. Get ready now.
  • Start capture: opens in 46 to 120 days. Meet the buyer and find partners.
  • Position early: opens in 121 to 365 days. Get your papers and past jobs ready.
  • Watch: more than a year away, or no date yet.

The date is the day the buyer expects to post the bid request. See Federal fiscal-year and state or local forecast dates explained.

What you see next

Each card gives the buyer, the estimated value, the place and the expected date. A fit chip such as Good fit shows when Hunter has scored the forecast. See What a forecast fit label means.

If Forecasts for you is shorter than All forecasts, a note under the list tells you how many more are in All forecasts.
