[Webinar replay] Top 20 bids for 2017—and the market trends that will affect how you build your pipeline

Federal contractors have a lot of questions about procurements in 2017:

  • How can you build a successful 2017 pipeline and align capture and proposal staff early given the prevailing market trends?
  • Which procurements will continue on schedule and which will slow during the upcoming presidential transition?
  • Are Category Management and IT Modernization bipartisan in nature, or will the change in administration stall these initiatives?
  • Will we continue to see the trend towards greater use of Multiple Award Contract (MAC) vehicles and a greater percentage of small business set-asides?
  • Will mid-tier companies find any relief, or will they continue to struggle in the new market?

Listen to our government procurement experts’ insights on the Top 20 bids for 2017 and the market trends that will affect how you build your pipeline.
