Fix Pipeline Issues that Negatively Impact Your Growth

There are many challenges growing a government contracting business. The biggest challenge is building and implementing a consistent and predictable sales process. Systemic issues in the pipeline review (Gate Reviews) and capture processes negatively impact proposals. The most common pipeline issues we encounter when working with our clients are:

• Difficulty prioritizing strategic opportunities.
• Pipeline is full of opportunities that are not real or unverified.
• Pipeline focuses on opportunity quantity vs. quality.
• Not enough resources to dedicate to opportunity qualification.
• Not bidding on enough opportunities.
• Ineffective gate review process that leads to:
  • Lack of knowledge that limits decision making.
  • Pursue/don’t pursue decisions take too long or are based on feelings and guesswork.

We developed flexible support packages to solve these issues called WinMoreBD™ Federal Pipeline Support. Our service frees up expensive BD and Capture Managers to spend more time talking to customers and partners while getting the same information for decision making. Packages include business development strategy formulation, market analysis and account planning, opportunity identification, and opportunity qualification services.

Use WinMoreBD™ to Increase Bid, Capture, and Win Rates

We start the WinMoreBD™ Federal Pipeline Support with a focused strategy session to gather detailed information about your company and your BD goals. We thoroughly review your capabilities, proposals, statements of work, and other information to compile a list of criteria for bid opportunities and create an ideal opportunity profile for your company.

If you don’t yet know what federal agencies to target, what Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDV) to pursue, how you should grow, or who your competitors are, we offer an optional Market Analysis [link to Market Analysis and Account Plans page]. We will present you with a detailed action plan, complete with the opportunities and government contacts.

Our monthly opportunity identification service finds bid possibilities that fit your areas of expertise, past performance, and other requirements. We scour multiple sources to ensure you don’t miss opportunities that are perfect for your pipeline. We will even find Task Order, Delivery Order, or Call Order opportunities on your IDVs.

Qualification process helps determine if the bid opportunity is truly a fit for your company, so you can invest money in capture and proposals with more certainty. Our Qualification service includes researching and verifying government customer contacts, validating opportunities and their details with the government customer, locating the old statement of work or Request for Proposal (RFP), analyzing each opportunity for fit and potential show-stopping requirements, performing a capabilities and gap analysis, researching the opportunity background, identifying competition and potential teaming partners, and more.
