Overview

Pricing and Cost Volume proposal preparation, presentation, and compliance are critical to a successful government bid. At Redstone GCI, we not only understand the requirements of a fully responsive proposal but also appreciate the effort and stress that comes with the task. We have helped contractors ranging in size from $1 million to $1 billion, whether outsourcing the cost volume proposal entirely or supplementing current staff.
