How to Win
Government opportunities can be difficult to understand, price and win without keen insight into the process and competitive landscape. We enable our clients to win more government bid solicitations because:
We make you aware of more opportunities - We are the only company with adequate technical infrastructure to receive all available GPO bid solicitation opportunities from its 16 nationwide offices. Combined with other government opportunities collected from thousands of websites, we review an average of over 100 prospects daily. Our comprehensive electronic system collects, categorizes and disseminates all available GPO bid opportunities, amendments, results and histories to our clients.
We make you eligible for more opportunities – Beyond quality certification and bid awareness services, our team further ensures your eligibility for the most opportunities by reviewing the appropriateness of bid specification and award criteria. If your competitive position is unduly compromised or disqualified by a job’s improper quality rating or unjust bid restrictions, we’ll protest the issue. Our legal team has a proven record of success in this area leading to wins for our clients that they would have never achieved without our help.
We enable you to identify, understand and focus on the most desirable opportunities – Our team ensures that an attractive opportunity is never lost because it’s overlooked or misinterpreted.
- Solicitation targeting - In addition to sending you all available solicitations for review, our team also identifies those we believe you are best suited to win based on your specific production needs and capabilities.
- Specification consulting and program analysis - Our experts help you understand complex specifications including interpretation of three key GPO documents: specifications for the specific contract, GPO Contract Terms (Publication 310.2) and Quality Assurance Through Attributes Program (QATAP) for Printing and Binding (GPO Pub. 310.1)
We enable you to optimize pricing - We help you to be most competitive without leaving significant money on the table. Our one-of-a-kind combination of expertise and historical data is what permits us to facilitate smart bidding and price optimization
- In-depth competitive pricing analysis - Our pricing guidance is based on an understanding and analysis of information stored in our exclusive database and current government marketplace information. Our database contains over 20 years of GPO jobs with their associated awards and competitive activity.
- Bidding programs - We provide the complex analysis needed to win Bidding Programs (annual contracts with multi-year extensions). Because of our exclusive database, we know what has been procured on each program and can identify erroneous specifications and position you to take advantage of them.
We handle your bid submission and follow-up – Once we have helped you identify and price the right opportunities, we prepare and submit your bid submission package to GPO. This ensures that it is received on time and in proper, complete format – all required for acceptance. After submission, we provide you with a PDF of the paperwork so you have it on file to review with GPO when you win the job.
