Understand what is being evaluated
Analyze the solicitation, statement of work and evaluation criteria. Map the requirements to the response and identify where supporting evidence is needed.
HOW WE HELP
You need to win the work.
Develop the answer behind the proposal.
A strong proposal needs more than persuasive writing. It needs a credible account of how the work will be delivered, who will do it, what it will cost and how the risks will be managed. Creation Train develops that account with the people who understand the operation, then turns it into a clear response to the solicitation.
This may sound familiar.
- A technical volume describes capabilities but not a workable delivery approach.
- Different contributors are writing parts of different solutions.
- Staffing, transition, cost assumptions and the narrative do not agree.
THE WORK
Develop the delivery approach
Work through the operating model, organization, staffing, transition and risk arrangements. Make assumptions explicit and connect the approach to the basis of estimate.
Write and challenge the response
Integrate contributions into technical and management sections. Review compliance, supporting evidence and consistency across the narrative, tables and plans.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Agreed outputs.
The engagement defines which of these are needed, their scope and how they will be reviewed.
- Proposal architecture and compliance matrix
- Technical and management volume sections
- Transition and risk approaches
- Staffing and basis-of-estimate support
- Review findings and evidence gaps
Relevant experience.
