Practical tips for preparing a competitive response

Pay close attention to the submission instructions for your proposal. You must submit separate sealed price and non-price proposals. Each of these must be clearly marked with 'PRICE PROPOSAL' or 'NON-PRICE PROPOSAL' and the RFP title. Both sealed envelopes must then be enclosed together in a third sealed envelope, also marked with the RFP title and your firm's name and address. Failure to follow these specific marking and delivery instructions may result in your proposal being rejected.

Ensure your proposal clearly outlines your firm's qualifications and experience in property tax assessment services. Highlight any past work with municipal clients or similar government entities. Address all requirements detailed in the RFP document to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the Town's needs.
