Cost efficiencies

For most organizations, regardless of their size, costs such as salary, benefits, and unemployment insurance considerations make maintaining a highly experienced senior level capture and proposal professional cost prohibitive. Utilizing MarksCom to provide strategic guidance and expert support delivers significant savings in the long term.

Flexibility

Government contracting offices are notoriously unpredictable. RFP drop dates and due dates change constantly, often at the last minute and the worst possible times. MarksCom can help ensure you have the expertise in place to respond when you need it most.

Adaptability

Every organization works differently. Some follow the Shipley process to the letter, others fly by the seat of their pants. Some have proposal teams that include only a handful of internal resources, others work with dozens of people both inside and outside their organization. Some utilize the latest cloud-based collaboration programs, others are old school paper pushers. MarksCom adapts to fit your environment and processes to work the way you want to work.

Client feedback

“Rob performed to an exceptional and rarely seen degree, an evaluation based on more than 20 years’ experience in the consulting business. In supporting SYTERA on a 60-day proposal effort for a DOD customer, he displayed in-depth knowledge and experience ranging across the entire proposal development and management process.… He actively and objectively proposed solutions to the technical, management, and past performance volumes which improved the final product. Rob maintained a positive outlook, brought enthusiasm to the work, made personal sacrifices to be present at critical junctures, and met the highest standards of professionalism.” William A. Doyle

“Rob is one of those sought-after all-in-one Proposal Management professionals who is equally at ease being hands-on with SharePoint/Word and large, multi-volume submissions while maintaining the big picture ability to discern the details, dependencies and implications as well as abstract to the strategic. I have had the pleasure of working with Rob Marks on three different occasions: one a Federal Government $2.5B IDIQ 5-volume submission, the second of which was in response to Evaluation Notices, and the third being a Corporate RFP 2-volume submission. Rob led all of them in the most efficient manner, overcoming different types of challenges in each, and always being consummately professional.” Krishnan Haridasan

“Rob was the glue that brought the proposal together and who helped each team member understand, at each step of the process, what needed to get done to submit a good quality proposal within our deadline. Rob was able to support the team to extract our value proposition and express it in a compelling way and was able to handle the difficulty of dealing with people who were remote and not used to writing or thinking in RFP terms, or who did not quite grasp the competing nature of this proposal.” VP, Business Development
