Course Description

Proposal Development Module

Once an RFP has been released, someone must take the leadership role: deciding whether to bid, planning the work, keeping it compliant, and getting a complete submission out on time.

This course builds the confidence to manage that process. You will learn how to analyze an opportunity, make a sound bid decision, plan and schedule the response, and carry it through to a compliant, competitive submission, using a structure you can repeat on every proposal.

This course is designed for individuals responsible for managing proposal responses. Learn how to evaluate opportunities, plan the proposal, coordinate contributors, and manage the response through submission.

  • Evaluate an opportunity to make a bid/no-bid decision.

  • Develop a proposal schedule and response plan.

  • Coordinate proposal activities and contributors.

  • Monitor proposal compliance throughout the response.

  • Manage the proposal through production and submission.
