Tip of the Week
The one line
"Confirmed capability + confirmed capacity."
Put it in your executive summary. Contracting officers scan for it. Vague strengths lose to specific confirmations every time. Say what you can do, prove you can do it, and prove you have the room to do it now.
Verse of the Week
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters."
— Colossians 3 : 23
