Can the contracting officer provide me with assistance
When the RFP is released to FBO there is very little that the contracting officer can do. Sometimes there is room for public questions. Therefore, you have to struggle on your own.
Can I just pruchase proposal writing software and let it do the rest?
Often too many medium and large businesses invest thousands of dollars in RFP software but are left wondering why the award statistics are low. Don’t fall for this short cut. If you are responding to a governemnt solicitation for a large dollar contract, you would at least want to put genuine ideas and thought into the RFP. This is where the Watson proposal writing team beats the competition. Government contract bids are all about understanding the requirements, being competitive and bring innovation to the table.
What information do I need to get started?
Government RFP turnaround times are very narrow. Our RFP and proposal writers need certain information without even thinking about it. This includes:
- Resumes of key management personnel
- Organizational charts
- A list of past projects within the last three years with dollar amounts
- If you have no actual projects then provide relevant experience and be able to articulate the relevancy
- Pictures ( Tell a compelling story )
This RFP information is the basic and immediate needs Our government writers will work with your team throughout the solicitation process until completion.
