Government Business Blueprint

We know that having a well thought out plan better ensures success when executing a successful plan. While it is tempting to just begin responding to bids, it makes better sense to figure out who purchases the goods or services you sell and attempting to build relationships with them. Before you begin figuring that out, it makes sense to find out if indeed the government buys what you sell and, if so, will they buy what you sell at the prices you currently charge. Figuring these facts out before you attempt to sell to the US Government can save a lot of time and resources. ECG can assist you in finding this information which includes:

Discovering Buying Patterns
Obtaining Award History
Uncovering Marketing Strategies
Revealing Competitive Intelligence
Identifying Opportunities
Creating Forecasts
Developing Pricing Strategies
Expanding Teaming Partners
Pipeline Development

Determining who buys what you sell, if they buy the specific brand or type of service, and establishing how much they often pay for such products or services can help determine how a company would move forward with their plan.

MYTH: Government agencies always award contracts based on price alone. Lowest price always wins.

FACT: While some contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, government agencies also make awards based on the best value which includes trade-offs between the ability to perform the work, quality, past performance, and price.
