Pre-Bid Evaluations – Investing in the Right Pursuits In pursuit of opportunities, companies have struggled with GO/NO GO decisions. We work with you to address and evaluate these critical decision making concerns:
Where should we invest precious bid dollars?
When do we redirect funds toward other efforts that increase the probability of ongoing success?
How will we really know if we have arrived at the best decision?
Is the company prepared to execute the contract on Day 1?
Will the investment in various deliverables be provided by the company or the customer?
Did we consider the cost(s) in our pricing?
Shall we continue with this pursuit?
This Pre-Bid Evaluation Checklist provides a structured approach to examining pursuits by answering questions from a post-win perspective.
