Overview

Responding to RFPs in the new Trump Administration requires adjusting your approach when assembling your proposal response. Developing a good compliance matrix is essential to aligning your proposal with both agency requirements, as well as new review criteria being implemented by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) prior to contract approval.

Compliance is not a suggestion in government contracting - it is the first gate that proposals must pass through to be considered for awards. In an environment where efficiency is king, one omission can cost you a win.

This session will explore the practical strategies you can use to reduce wasted time and cost when crafting proposals, and how to avoid common compliance disqualifications before they happen. In this session, you will learn:

• How to build what DOGE is looking for into your compliance matrix

• The process of aligning proposals with current regulatory requirements and avoid automatic rejection

• How to reduce compliance errors using an effective compliance matrix This session is an ideal opportunity to enhance your compliance matrix building skills to ensure your government contracts meet new DOGE directives as well as all necessary Statement of Work (SOW) requirements needed to win.
