Our proposal managers will oversee your proposal efforts, managing every last detail. Proposal writers will work with your Subject Matter Experts to develop compliant and compelling proposal sections. Our Orals Coaches will help prepare cohesive presentations to the source selection evaluation panel. We also staff proposal coordinators, volume leads, proposal editors, graphic artists, desktop publishers, and other proposal team members. We will bring a turnkey proposal team or offer consultants as needed.

Since proposal price is one of the most important factors in winning or losing, we offer you expert support from cost proposal leads, proposal price strategists, pricers, estimators, Basis of Estimate (BOE) experts, schedulers/planners, and other cost team personnel. Our expert price consultants will contribute to your capture and proposal strategy and ensure that your cost volume works with your technical volume.

To perform the competitive Labor Rate Analysis, we will reverse-engineer, analyze, and compare your competitors’ and your company’s labor rates. We then will recommend a proposal pricing strategy. Our Price to Win solution will model a likely competitor approach and develop their bid price build-up. This analysis will help recommend alternative technical approaches and strategic moves to improve your price position. Labor rate and Price to Win analyses are critical on large recompetes and new strategic captures, and they increase the probability of winning every proposal you submit.

We will help prepare for and facilitate Black Hat competitive assessments. We will identify competitive teams and research their background information. We will then run a brainstorming session to develop competitors’ Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT), and wargame their likely bid strategies. We will help you define strategies for positioning against them in your proposal to score highest on non-price evaluation factors. Black Hat is most powerful when done in conjunction with the Price to Win analysis.

Whether you are defending an incumbency or bidding on a must-win opportunity, you need a sound win strategy. You also need to communicate clear customer messages to the Government and develop draft proposal win themes. Our facilitated Win Strategy workshop or series of workshops will help you determine customer’s hot buttons, turn them into messages and win themes, and come up with a list of prioritized actions to help you win the bid.
