Get In Before the RFP Even Exists
WHAT’S INSIDE
Why the Best Government Contractors Win Before the RFP Drops
State and local governments are facing unprecedented challenges in 2025: budget pressures, supply chain issues, and constantly shifting priorities. The vendors who win government RFPs are the ones building relationships and influencing project requirements long before the formal procurement process begins.
While your competitors wait for RFPs to drop, this playbook reveals how to:
- Build trust with procurement officers during the planning phase
- Position yourself as a strategic advisor before requirements are finalized
- Monitor public meetings and budget discussions to spot needs early
- Become the vendor they're thinking about when they draft the RFP
The advantage? When the RFP finally drops, you’re not competing—you’re confirming relationships you’ve already built.
