Services
Proposal Leadership & Management
We own the schedule, hold the pens, and keep the team aligned. Roles, deadlines, color reviews—handled. The result: on‑time, compliant submissions that tell a cohesive story.
RFP Dissection & Compliance
We translate the RFP into a line‑by‑line compliance matrix, map evaluation factors, and eliminate ambiguity early. No surprises at Red Team—or on submission day.
Win Strategy & Capture Support
Positioning, discriminators, ghosting, and storylines that track to what evaluators score. We align technical, past performance, and price narratives to one win theme.
Proposal Writing & Editing
Executive summaries, management plans, technical volumes, and past performance. Plain language that passes compliance checks and persuades evaluators.
Color Team Reviews & Orals
Structured Pink/Red/Gold reviews with tight feedback loops. Orals coaching, slide builds, and Q&A prep that keep the message crisp under pressure.
Graphics & Storyboarding
One‑page visuals that make your value obvious: process flows, RACI, org charts, roadmaps. Built from the evaluator’s point of view.
Production & Submission
Templates, formatting, volumes, forms, portals, binders—finalized and submitted cleanly. We sweat the details, so you don’t.
Process & Playbook Build‑Out
Standing up your proposal function: playbooks, checklists, templates, and training so future bids run smoother and score higher.
Client Specific Content Library & Reuse
Build, tag, and maintain a single source of truth for proposals (past performance, resumes, boilerplate, graphics). Map to Sections L/M and the PWS, version‑control it, and tailor quickly for each RFP.
Knowledgebase Management
Set governance, metadata, and review cadences; retire stale content; protect sensitive data. Enable secure, client‑approved AI for fast retrieval and first‑draft support so your team spends time on strategy, not searching.
