CPE, CLE Accredited

This is session 1 of 3 in the First Time as a Prime Series.

This session focuses on the period starting with the identification of the opportunity through the release of the RFP by the government. This stage is critical because it establishes the opportunity, the team, and the capture strategy. For companies new to the role of prime, there is often a lack of awareness of the many actions that can be taken during this time to set up your team for success. In this session, we will introduce attendees to the concepts of shaping the RFP, establishing workshare for teammates, and gathering competitive intelligence.

Learning Objectives: By the end of this session, attendees will be able to:

Learn how to help shape the RFP to maximize the value of your technical solution and your team
Understand the best practices for negotiating workshare on teaming agreements
Recognize how to gather competitive intelligence from your teaming partners

This live webinar is eligible for both CLE and CPE credit.
NOTE: CPE/CLE credit for attendees are subject to participation and approval by the governing boards.
