Pre RFP pursuit

The MustWin Process defines specific goals to be achieved prior to RFP release, so that when the proposal starts you will already have a competitive advantage.

  • The Business Development Manager prepares for the Readiness Reviews by collecting intelligence.
  • The Executive Sponsor will be expected to review the intelligence collected and determine whether it is sufficient.

You must have specific goals that you seek to accomplish before the RFP is released.  Otherwise, the time will likely be wasted.  Here is a list of goals recommended by the MustWin Process:
