Proposal Development

Planning and writing competitive proposals require various disciplines. These include training in and understanding Federal Acquisition Regulations and contract clauses which dictate ultimate contract performance. Other disciplines include the ability to accurately interpret Government solicitations, perform technical research, estimate the costs of labor and materials, and develop effective graphics and narratives which clearly convey solutions.
