Understanding the RFP & Proposal Process is Critical

When a federal agency announces its requests for proposals, there are set criteria that you must follow when submitting RFP responses. Failure to follow this criteria will deem your proposal as non- responsive and you will forfeit any chance of winning the bid.

There are tons of strange clauses immersed in the statement of work. You must have an understanding of the ‘playing field’ in order to stand a chance. See also: Government proposal writing & RFP tips.

After you finish and submit your proposal package, the agency forms a source selection team that evaluates each proposal for compliance and to determine which company offers the best value to the agency. Typically, the proposal selection criteria is based on four things:

Whether the offeror understands the requirements as set forth in the solicitation
Whether the offeror has a strong technical proposal that articulates management, technical approach and demonstrates risk mitigation
Whether the offeror demonstrates sufficient relevant past performance in similar projects
Whether the offeror’s pricing is fair and reasonable
