Our ability to ensure compliance with all evaluation criteria on each Request for Proposal (RFP)/Request for Quotation (RFQ) is what keeps our clients coming back. Meridian West has experience responding to proposals with an evaluation basis of Best Value, Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) and Time and Materials. Because we understand the evaluation processes, we can advise you which areas of the proposal need the most attention.
If your proposal preparation process needs a little help or a lot of attention contact Meridian West today. Let us become a part of your Big Picture proposal process or part of your Family Tree, either way!
