Whatley Tue, 08 Dec 2009 02:15:01 +0000 http://blog.executivebiz.com/?p=5559#comment-67381 I have managed government contracts for our company for 24 years. In addition, I teach a seminar called "Writing Proposals that Win Contracts." I wholeheartedly agree with the last points Mr. Talcove made. Government contracting is already faster, more agile, and simpler than it was even 5 years ago and will continue to be so. I also agree that government contracting is going to become more competitive. Again, it already is more competitive than I remember it ever being just a few years ago. One point that I would like to add is that government contracting will catch up to the commercial sector in embracing the new Web-based communication tools, such as social media. Currently, government systems lag the commercial sector with these, but in order to increase speed and efficiency, they will catch up soon.
