Project team
This section presents your project team to the reader. If you have sub-
consultants on the team, you will want to include a simple corporate team
organization chart. It is generally useful to include the name of the key
coordinator for each organization.
The main purpose of this section is to introduce the reader to the project
staff. A project organization chart is a valuable tool and shows at a glance
the hierarchy that you will use and the individuals involved. For the key
staff you should provide a brief capsule resume that describes the
person's qualifications for this project and also the responsibilities he or
she must assume. You should take the trouble to customize the capsule
resumes so they specifically address the needs of the project, rather than
just using your standard ones.
Special emphasis should be placed on the project manager because he or
she is the key technical person as well as the main conduit of
communications between the project team and the client. You should
strive to paint your project manager as a person who has most if not all of
the following traits: authoritative in the subject under consideration,
excellent verbal and written communication skills, clout within your
organization, strong organizational skills, and a track record of successful
projects.
Relevant experience
Your description of relevant experience is a vitally important part of the
proposal. This section must establish the qualifications of your team and
must forge a strong sense of confidence that your team has the technical
and organizational expertise to perform the project. The bulk of this
section should consist of capsule descriptions of relevant projects that
your company has performed. Lengthier descriptions should be placed in
an appendix. Magazine articles, conference papers or other publications
are particularly effective in establishing your technical credentials and
they should be summarized in this section.
In addition, you should specify relevant equipment, facilities such as
laboratories or computers, information sources such as databases, and
any other factors that show you can fulfill the technical requirements of
the project and/or which provide you with an advantage over your
competitors.
Avoid discussing your competitors' weaknesses. Instead, highlight your
own strengths; a good evaluator will be able to draw the proper
comparisons.
