CSS Bid Plan
By Carl Dickson
Chris Payne gave his permission for us to post this Excel based bid planning tool from CSS Consultancy.
He also created a 10 minute video on how to use the spreadsheet. While the use of the bid plan is fairly self-explanatory, you may benefit from running through the video to familiarise yourself with the logic behind the way the spreadsheet was developed.

Proposal Sight Reading Presentation
By Carl Dickson
Sight reading is something musicians do when they play a song they don't know and haven't practiced with music they've never before seen. It's extremely difficult. If you are asking your proposal reviewers to conduct site reading, your review process is probably flawed and you can't expect the best performance from your reviewers. Nonetheless the vast majority of proposal reviews are conducted this way. Being able to size up a proposal at a first glance is a useful skill to have. Here is the presentation from a webinar we have on August 22nd, 2012 showing some of our techniques and the tricks we've picked up over the years that can help you do a better job of instantly assessing the quality of proposal.

Consulting, training, and help winning your pursuits
PropLIBRARY is a great tool and we spend a lot of time talking about it. It's perfect for the "Do It Yourself" types. But when you need guidance from a real live person or some hands on help you need a consultant and not just a tool. Carl Dickson is the founder of CapturePlanning.com and PropLIBRARY. He is also a trainer and consultant. Here is a description of what he does as a consultant so you can see if we're a match.
Feel free to download and send it to others you think could use some help. At the end of the day it's more about how to maximize your return on investment than whether you use a tool or a consultant. That's something we can all explore together.
