Win-ready proposals without pulling your team off delivery.
We develop complete federal proposal responses while you stay focused on operations. Your investment: 5-10 hours of input. Our delivery: a submission-ready response.
30-45 Minutes to Review Response Requirements and Assess Readiness
The real cost of self-execution
Federal proposals demand 40-60 hours of concentrated effort from your best people. That time comes directly from billable work, client delivery, and business development. Most small businesses face an impossible choice: neglect the proposal or neglect current contracts.
The result is rushed submissions that technically comply but fail to persuade. Evaluators see the difference between proposals written under pressure and proposals written with focus.
What response development includes
Response development covers every step from opportunity qualification through final submission:
- Opportunity assessment and bid decision analysis
- RFP requirements decomposition and compliance mapping
- Solution architecture and technical approach development
- Past performance narrative development
- Staffing and management approach
- Pricing strategy support
- Full proposal writing, editing, and production
- Final compliance review
Two questions to consider
1. How many hours did your last proposal cost your operations team?
2. What would you have delivered to clients with that time instead?
If your proposals regularly consume 40+ hours of leadership attention, response development support pays for itself in preserved revenue and reduced opportunity cost.

How engagements work
We start with a brief consultation to understand the opportunity, timeline, and your competitive position. If the fit is right, we provide a fixed-price quote based on RFP complexity.
You provide access to past performance records, resumes, and subject matter expertise through structured interviews. We handle research, writing, compliance, and production.
Typical timeline: 2-4 weeks depending on RFP scope and submission deadline.
Is this right for you?
Strong fit
✓ Active opportunity with submission deadline in 30-90 days
✓ 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, or other small business set-aside
✓ Operations team stretched thin with current delivery
✓ Past performance exists but needs strategic positioning
Why outsourced response development wins
Evaluators score proposals on clarity, credibility, and evidence discipline. Internal teams writing under deadline pressure produce compliant but unfocused responses. Details get missed. Narratives ramble. Strengths go unstated.
Dedicated response development produces tighter proposals because writing is the only priority — not a task squeezed between client calls and project delivery.
The math is simple: better proposals from fewer internal hours.
