Structured assessment of federal opportunities against institutional capability, strategic alignment, competitive positioning, and resource availability before pursuit commitment — consistent with Shipley Business Development Lifecycle bid/no-bid frameworks.
Comprehensive risk evaluation identifying technical, financial, compliance, and competitive risks associated with bid pursuit, informing go/no-go decisions aligned with capture management best practices for aerospace contracts.
Pre-pursuit verification of compliance readiness including export control, cybersecurity, cost accounting, and organizational conflict of interest assessments — aligned with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirements.
Assessment of personnel availability, technical expertise, teaming commitments, and infrastructure readiness required for credible proposal development under structured government proposal management standards.
Evaluation of bid and proposal investment requirements, estimated contract financial structure, and organizational financial risk exposure.
Identification of technical capability gaps relative to solicitation requirements, with assessment of gap closure strategies and teaming options for mission-critical aerospace systems.
Formal executive-level review and approval prior to proposal submission, ensuring institutional commitment, resource authorization, and risk acceptance — the final gate in the Shipley-aligned capture governance process.
