The federal government is the largest buyer of goods and services in the world. Are you eager to increase your sales and grow your business? If so, join us for this TIGER Talk to learn how to increase your win rate, eliminate challenges and obstacles, boost efficiency at bidding, and stop the cycle of reinventing the wheel. Government contractors tend to continuously reinvent the proposal process, unnecessarily spending a lot of time, money, and effort. Our presenters, Bill Cox and Dorinda Byers of Ohio University Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC), will help you learn to streamline your efforts and succeed at securing government contracts.

Bill and Dorinda will review a real life solicitation and take us through the step-by-step process of preparing a response that’s equipped to win. Real world examples will be discussed in an extended Q&A.

What you will learn:

• The Foundations and Building Blocks of Proposals that Win
• Avoiding Common Pitfalls in Proposal Development
• Guaranteeing You’ll Never Submit (and Get Eliminated for) a Non-Compliant Proposal.
