Proposal Support Hiring

What can we do for your workforce?

Creating a winning proposal requires more than strong pricing and technical writing—it demands a proactive talent strategy. At Three Cords Talent, we integrate seamlessly into your proposal lifecycle to deliver cleared, compliant, and committed candidates at every phase of the process.

How It Works

YOUR TALENT JOURNEY WITH THREE CORDS

Building a winning proposal requires precision hiring at every phase. At Three Cords, our Proposal Support Hiring process is designed to align your staffing strategy with the proposal lifecycle—from pre-RFP planning through post-award execution. Here’s how we support you:

    • Step 1: Pre-RFP Planning & Needs Assessment
      We begin by collaborating with your proposal and capture teams to understand position requirements, clearance levels, labor categories, and key skill sets. This ensures alignment with pricing and technical strategy from the outset.
    • Step 2: Talent Mapping & Resume Readiness/strong>
      Our team builds pipelines of qualified, cleared professionals and begins securing LOIs (Letters of Intent). We prepare resumes that meet contract requirements and agency formats to enhance proposal credibility and compliance.

 

  • Step 3: Compliance & Documentation
    We support staffing plan development, salary justification, rate mapping, and agency-specific documentation. Whether it’s FAR, DFARS, or internal SOPs, we ensure you’re covered.
  • Step 4: Post-Award Hiring & Onboarding
    Once awarded, we hit the ground running—verifying clearance statuses, finalizing selections, and managing onboarding. Our team works with hiring managers to transition proposal candidates into full deployment.

Ongoing Support
Even after award, we stay engaged. We help with audit prep, re-compete planning, and retention tracking to ensure your project staffing stays compliant and resilient through the contract lifecycle.
