Past event: Business Development and Proposal Preparation Seminar

Today’s rapidly changing marketplace and acquisition requirements are reshaping the program you pursue and the proposal you deliver. You face tighter budgets, fewer programs, totally new business arenas, must-win technology R&D competitions, and streamlined acquisitions. In addition, the many major mergers both in the U.S. and Europe have changed the nature of new-business acquisitions.

Add to this challenge - tightened page counts and the move toward contractor-initiated solutions with fewer customer requirements, and you have, in effect, a totally new ballgame. The proposal today is a sea change from the proposal of just five years ago. And yet, the proposal strategies internal to the proposal are timeless. This seminar has been constructed for the Year 2008 and beyond!

Since 1974, H. Silver and Associates has been the pacesetter in how to discover and win new business. Over 25,000 executives and professionals have learned marketing and proposal reality from HSA. They consistently rank our programs as absolutely Number 1 in the high-technology marketing and proposal-preparation arena.

Over the past 34 years, we have achieved a 85% win record on over 2,200 proposals worldwide — helping our clients win contracts for programs ranging from multi-million dollar services contracts to multi-billion dollar hardware systems, as well a variety of technical and commercial study and R&D contracts.
