HOW WE TRANSITION TO PROPOSALProposal teams grow exhausted in the last days before the RFP closing date.
EXA applies a proven proposal management process that simultaneously manages exhaustion and complexity along 3 dimensions:
A tiny but critical detail among the thousands of RFP requirements increases perilously as proposal teams grow exhausted in the last days before the RFP closing date. EXA applies a proven proposal management process that simultaneously manages complexity along three dimensions:
RFP Requirements. We use a proven, high-level RFP requirements management methodology that easily maps onto a requirements management tool, such as DOORS™, or just as easily onto a cluster of spreadsheets, such as Excel™, while also ensuring bidirectional traceability between RFP requirements and proposal responses.
Document Development. EXA is unique in that we spearhead the writing and reviewing portion of document development. This includes distilling complex RFP requirements into manageable units, using those units to create a detailed outline, and solidifying a work package for each author that guides them through the process. To ensure proposal readiness, we subject each document through four stages of reviews.
People. We maintain a cadre of management, technical, financial, and ITB/VP specialists who develop and support document writing, editing, and formatting. A great deal of EXA’s role is providing leadership to personnel regarding skill enhancement and coordination with other proposal writers.
