Rates

WinBridge has two primary rate structures:

  1. Hourly - In most cases, this is the best value since we are only paid for hours worked throughout the bid. Rates are highly dependent on the level and type of support needed, which we’ll discuss early in the process.

  2. Fixed Fee/Retainer - If your capture is large and requires an extended commitment, this can be a better value. This allows WinBridge to singularly focus on planning and working through the logistical and organizational challenges inherent with major programs and projects.

At the end of the day, every client and capture is different, so just reach out and we’ll figure it out together.

Travel

While we support most clients remotely, there are times where the value of being on-site is worth the investment. We frequently travel to conduct in-person strategy sessions, kickoffs, color teams, and final production. As well, Classified captures requiring an on-site presence is a given.

Details of travel and on-site expectations and access will be discussed early and revisited frequently given the unpredictable nature of bid schedules.

Insurance

WinBridge holds a $1M general liability business insurance policy and maintains supplier/vendor accounts with most of our larger clients as required.

Small Business

In 2024, our goal is to achieve certification as a Small Business Enterprise (SBE), Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE), Minority and Woman-Owned Business Enterprise (M/WBE). These federal, state, and local agency certifications may count toward your small business goals, which can be a win-win.

Partners

Should your proposal require additional hands on-deck, we maintain relationships with an extensive network of reputable business development consulting firms and freelance consultants with specialized expertise. This expertise includes: win strategy, price analysis, competitive analysis, cost estimating, technical writing, copy editing, graphic design, 3D modeling, illustration, desktop publishing, color team reviews, and print production.

Let us know what you need and we’ll reach out to our trusted partners for the best fit.

Ethical Commitment

We do not work on the same proposal for multiple clients (competitors) at the same time. WinBridge’s contract includes a non-disclosure agreement. Given our need to work within your secure environment, understand your win strategy, and communicate with your staff, this is a privilege and responsibility we take seriously. We protect your sensitive information, period. After all, we want you to win as much as you do!
