# Winning & Defending Business Through RFPs

[About 50% of all healthcare revenue](https://loopio.com/thank-you/trends-report/?__hstc=138660140.6e17769717c8da80984edea0e7ce1f38.1776437701434.1776437701434.1783022110796.2&__hssc=138660140.1.1783022110796&__hsfp=ad51163fafb19f48a2d6d191c42987ce&submissionGuid=fcc4d398-379c-4241-b622-26b6fb225ff8) is won through RFPs. Is your team designed to win?

You may be putting revenue at risk if:

- You don't strategize before you write.
- Your team can't scale to meet demand.
- Your proposal process is reactive instead of repeatable.
- Your technology doesn't accelerate proposal development.
- Your sales, SMEs, and proposal teams are at odds.

Metre offers a better way to win and defend revenue. Our strategic, hands-on support plugs in precisely where you need it, strengthening your capabilities, and helping you win critical business in the process.

95% of the proposals we support win— and our clients gain the expertise, capacity and rigor of an enterprise-level proposal team along the way.

OUR PROCESS

## The Metre Way

Want to produce high-quality, strategic proposals with less disruption and stress? **Let us do it.**

We provide full-service proposal execution, taking leadership of your response through a proven, four-phase approach:

![MetreIcon](https://metreworks.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website/MetreIcon.png?width=50&height=51&name=MetreIcon.png)

### **Phase 1: Pre-RFP Strategy and Readiness**

Before the RFP drops, we help you define your customer-specific competitive advantage. We conduct an in-depth opportunity assessment, a solution gap analysis, and a competitive review. The discovery process results in a top-down approved plan to win—a strategic blueprint that aligns your team around winning differentiators and value themes.

![MetreIcon](https://metreworks.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website/MetreIcon.png?width=50&height=51&name=MetreIcon.png)

### Phase 2: Proposal Development and Management

Once the RFP drops, we turn your knowledge into compliant, high-scoring content. Our project managers handle daily project activities, compliance tracking, and timelines while our healthcare-focused writers gather insights and information from your SMEs. Then we use our proprietary MA.G.I.C. Framework to build a compelling, customer-focused narrative.

![MetreIcon](https://metreworks.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website/MetreIcon.png?width=50&height=51&name=MetreIcon.png)

### Phase 3: Quality Control and Submission

Throughout the writing, editing, and review process, we focus attention on the overall impact of your content. At red team or second draft review, we invite seasoned, objective evaluators to grade your draft against the official scoring criteria and proposal industry standards. We synthesize and deliver the mock scoring results with high-level and question-level recommendations for improvement, allowing the team to focus energy on improving the key areas of the proposal that will have the most impact on the outcome. Once content is final and approved, we prepare the proposal documents for packaging and delivery by conducting a copy edit, page layout and design, and final document rendering.

![MetreIcon](https://metreworks.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Website/MetreIcon.png?width=50&height=51&name=MetreIcon.png)

### Phase 4: Finalist Preparation

When you’re selected as a finalist and invited to present, we translate your written proposal into a high-impact presentation. We create storyboards for slide content, develop a “run of show” flow, and coach presenters on delivery best practices using proven 1:1 orals coaching methods and team rehearsals.
