• Developing the Tender Response Timeline/Process including reviews;
• Understanding the necessary positions in a tender team – including Bid Director, Solution Architect, Bid Manager, Book Manager;
• Understanding how long it will take to develop each response, the size of the team required, and the likely cost – a shoestring budget will waste your time and whatever money you do spend;
• Development of the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and Dictionary for the project being tendered – and the What, Why, When, Who and How for each Work Element
