Government Contract Proposal (RFP Response)

Responding to government RFPs is an exhausting, time-intensive process requiring coordination across technical, cost, and compliance teams. Proposal teams spend weeks drafting technical volumes, compiling past performance data, and ensuring regulatory compliance—often working around the clock to meet tight submission deadlines. Manual formatting, version control issues, and last-minute changes create stress and increase the risk of non-compliant submissions.
