# Document Repository: Use Cases and Example Prompts
### Turn Government Plans Into Actionable Insights
The earlier you understand what an agency is planning, the better positioned you are to engage before a purchasing decision is made.
With the GovSpend Document Repository, you can move beyond researching what agencies have already purchased to understanding what they're prioritizing next, all through the AI tools you're already using.

**Identify Opportunities Before They Become RFPs**
Government agencies often outline their priorities well before publishing a solicitation. Search strategic plans, budgets, and funding requests to identify projects and initiatives that could turn into future purchasing opportunities.
> Example prompt: "Which federal agencies mention cybersecurity modernization or AI adoption in their strategic plans?"
**Understand Agency Budgets and Spending Priorities**
Research proposed and approved budgets to understand where agencies are allocating resources and which programs or departments may be receiving funding.
> Example prompt: "Find federal agencies with proposed FY2027 budget investments in technology modernization."
**Uncover Upcoming Infrastructure Projects**
Explore capital improvement plans to identify planned construction, facilities, transportation, and other infrastructure investments.
> Example prompt: "Find capital improvement plans that mention upcoming public safety facility projects."
**Research Education Technology Funding**
Use E-Rate filings to understand which schools and libraries are requesting funding for networking, connectivity, and other eligible technology needs.
> Example prompt: "Find E-Rate funding requests related to network equipment for school districts in Texas."
**Align Your Outreach With Agency Goals**
Strategic and technology plans can reveal an agency's long-term objectives, including cloud migration, cybersecurity, AI adoption, and operational improvements. Use these insights to tailor your messaging around initiatives the agency has already identified as priorities.
> Example prompt: "Which federal agencies have identified cloud migration as a strategic priority, and what goals are they trying to achieve?"

### Tips for Getting Better Results
1. Be specific. Include the agency, state, document type, fiscal year, or topic you're researching.
2. Combine document types. Compare an agency's strategic plan with its budget to better understand whether a planned initiative has received funding.
3. Check the source. Review the original documents to validate important details before acting on them.
4. Understand the difference between requests and awards. A proposed budget or funding request does not necessarily mean money has been approved or awarded.
5. Keep coverage in mind. Not every agency or document type is represented equally, and availability may change as the repository evolves.
