Significado
To examine something in detail and with scrutiny.
Contexto cultural
In professional settings, using this phrase shows that you are a person of 'Amana' (trustworthiness) because you don't take things lightly. In Egyptian dialect, people might say 'فصص' (to de-shell/dissect) to mean the same thing as 'ألقى نظرة فاحصة'. It's very visual. In Lebanon or Syria, 'دقق' is very common in place of this phrase in daily professional life, though the MSA version is used in all news media. In formal government or business meetings in the Gulf, this phrase is a staple of 'Khaleej' professional etiquette.
Use it in Emails
Start a follow-up email with 'لقد ألقيت نظرة فاحصة على مقترحكم' to show you've done your homework.
The 'S' Sound
Be very careful with the 'Sad' (ص) in Fahisa. If you say it like a 'Seen' (س), it's still understandable, but if you add a 'Sheen' (ش), it becomes a different word.
