The fiscal cliff cut in government spending puts the proposal process at risk like never before. With significantly less money for agencies to spend, bidder companies will have to compete harder to win a slice of a smaller pie. And many companies will have fewer resources to work their proposals, because of having had to reduce proposal staff to cope with the decline in federal budgets. These unfortunate realities make it necessary for federal contractors to be shrewder than ever before in selecting their proposal consulting resources. This issue is of paramount importance because of the cost and the potential outcomes. At any level of skill, a proposal consultant costs about half of what a lawyer costs Justin Houston Jeysey , which is a lot. Further, given a set amount of up front work by the business developers, skilled proposal consultants can win significantly more contracts than consultants of lesser ability. The story is told about a year when Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus were the top golfers in the world. Their average scores differed by a fraction of a point. Yet top golfer Palmer earned twice as much as Nicklaus that year. As in the game of golf, a little more skill in the proposal consulting profession translates into many added dollars in contract wins. Introduction Based on my 27 years as an agency owner in the industry Laurent Duvernay-Tardif Jeysey , I believe the factors given below will serve as a reliable guide in helping both large and small business select the proposal consulting service that is best for them.







Nine Factors to Consider When Choosing a Proposal Consulting Service Considering the nine factors below will help government contractors of all size to find the proposal consulting agency that best serves their needs. This includes large business, small business, and SDB firms:







1. Do they have a record of helping to win a high percentage of contracts bid? We all know there are numerous impediments to winning contracts such as lack of sufficient business development, defective pricing strategy Kareem Hunt Jeysey , and many more. When all is said and done, however, does the candidate agency have a contract win rate over 80? Answer: OCI has won 83% of contracts by dollar volume, and this includes helping customers win contracts ranging from $5 M to $50 B with an aggregate value exceeding $300 B.







2. Do they have a deep talent bench in all proposal consulting labor categories? Including cleared talent if needed? Specifically Patrick Mahomes Jeysey , can they provide proposal writers and proposal managers with domain and agency backgrounds? Do they have sufficient depth to replace consultants in the event of health or other problems encountered during the assignment? Do they have different levels of artists, coordinators, desktoppers, and production coordinators? Do they have good orals coaches as well as pricing analysts Tyreek Hill Jeysey , PTW analysts, and competition analysts? Answer: OCI has the largest qualified proposal consultant list in the business. This includes 350 regulars from a list exceeding 5,000 consultants. It includes a depth of talent in all categories from manager to writer, to artist Darwin Thompson Jeysey , to administrators, pricers, PTW analysts, orals Khalen Saunders Jeysey , and all standard labor categories, as well as technical, domain, and agency SMEs. There is also talent cleared to the TSSCI level in all proposal labor categories.







3. Does the group have a solid track record in whole proposal preparation? Have they successfully worked a quantity of whole proposal jobs similar in size and complexity and type to the proposals you bid? Answer: OCI has 20 years of experience in whole proposal preparation. We have assisted in helping customers prepare successful whole proposals in the $5 M to $50 B size range with an aggregate of over $300 B in contracts won.







4. Does the group have a demonstrated responsive service delivery process? And can they deliver qualified proposal consultants within your typical time frames? Can they provide consultants who not only are technically qualified but also will fit into your corporate culture? Can they successfully make consultant replacements when problems arise due to illness or other factors? Answer: OCI sales personnel are trained in soliciting sufficient position information to provide talent responsive to customer requirements. Talent delivery is typically day-after-next Juan Thornhill Jeysey , although orders for next day talent are common, and we successfully respond to orders for same-day service. (It is usually possible to provide a better qualified and lower priced talent match when one or two weeks of lead time is provided.) Further, OCI sales personnel have the experience and judgment to provide consultants who will fit into a particular corporate culture.
