Proposal and RFP Solutions

Expertly crafted proposals and RFPs help organizations stand out from the competition and build the gateway to new opportunities.

The proposal and RFP challenge

The challenge:
The complexity and volume of RFPs and proposals has grown exponentially.

The root cause(s):
Buyers have more tools and resources and their fingertips, equipping them with more information and buying power than ever before.

The result:
While most organizations have RFP and proposal teams, they are often overwhelmed trying to keep up with the evolving demands of buyers and differentiating themselves from their competitors.

Organizations lack processes to help prioritize opportunities

With little to no reporting & data, difficult to understand wins, losses, & the “why’s”—and how to adjust

Team is under high stress and burn out easily, with high turnover

Higher effort, more time and resources paired with declining win rates is driving ROI down

How the leaders do it differently

RFP and Proposal industry leaders have 50%+ win rates through rigorous discipline and best practices:

Consistent, repeatable, measurable process (pre-, during and post-RFP solutions)

Robust content library with differentiators proof points, connection points, storytelling

Highly skilled, trained and coached resources (internal outsourced or hybrid)

Tailored, differentiated responses that uniquely connect with the buyer(s)
