Abstract
A system for cognitive assessment of the competitiveness of deals may include a memory having stored thereon historical deal information for historical deals with each historical deal including a historical deal component. A historical deal component may include a historical work scope and associated historical work pricing. The system may also include a processor cooperating with the memory and configured to compare current deal information with the historical deal information. The current deal information may include a current deal component that may include a current work scope and associated current work pricing. The processor may use machine learning to determine whether the current deal component is non-competitive based upon the historical deal information, and for each non-competitive current deal component generate an alternative current deal component. The alternative current deal component may have at least one of a different current work scope and different associated current work pricing.
