What is the #1 question we’re getting about RFPs from clients and prospects lately? Is it a tactical question about time management, contradictory requirements, or formatting? Or a high-level question about managing stress and continuous improvement? On this episode of The RFP Success Show, Lisa Rehurek tackles some of the most frequently asked questions about navigating RFPs. From mastering time management to handling contradictory requirements and managing stress, Lisa shares her expert advice to help you streamline your RFP response process. Key Takeaways Mastering Time Management Create a Timeline: Break tasks into manageable chunks and work backwards from the due date to ensure timely completion. Prioritize Critical Sections: Focus on the evaluation criteria and allocate time accordingly. Set Milestones: Establish key checkpoints and create a calendar with blocked time for uninterrupted work. Navigating Contradictory Requirements Clarify with Issuer: Use the Q&A period to address any contradictions and avoid confusion. Document Everything: Keep thorough records of clarifications and decisions for future reference. Use a Compliance Matrix: Develop a matrix to track requirements and identify contradictions early. Response Formatting Strategies Understand Guidelines: Build your response template to meet formatting requirements from the start. Be Creative Within Constraints: Use visuals and bullet points to make your proposal engaging while adhering to guidelines.
