Build A Stronger Proposal

10 Proven Methods to Improve Proposal Scoring

With over $50 million in awarded contracts, I created this book using the 10 proven methods I use to develop (build) and write proposals designed for SLED government contracting (state and local government agencies, and educational institutions). I've also included a step-by-step checklist to instruct you as you create your proposal and prepare it for submission.

The book is designed to help you write proposals that are more competitive in evaluation scoring. It will show you how to:

• Strengthen alignment to RFP/RFQ evaluation criteria
• Improve clarity and responsiveness to requirements
• Structure content so evaluators can score it easily
• Avoid a one-size-fits-all approach
• Stand out from the competition
• Build consistency across proposal sections
