<p><b><font color = "#0000a0">The Federal Sales Academy is offering a new seminar "<a href = "http://www.fedmarket.com/seminars/bid_protest.shtml?cid=1214429089-15514">Bid Protests - How To Keep The Deals You Win And Get The Ones You Lose</a>."</font></b>
<p>Our "Bid Protests" seminar will guide your company through the key tactics and decision points that make the difference between successful and unsuccessful bid protests. The course will help you learn how to use the bid protest system both offensively and defensively. The course gives special focus to the new provisions for task and delivery order protests that became effective in May, 2008. We will take you through all the steps of the bid protest process from when and how to file a protest to how to collect protest costs if you win. The course teaches how to use the protest process to enhance your sales objectives, and to defend strategic wins that are challenged by your competitors.
<p><b>This seminar is designed to enhance your ability to: </b>
<ul><li>Know when and why to protest
<li>Avoid common mistakes that result in protest dismissal
<li> Obtain information needed to file successful protests
<li> Recognize winning and losing protests
<li> Work with agency customers to defeat protests that are filed against your company.
<li> Understand how well timed protests enhance your company's ability to win and keep large government contracts</ul>
<p>Protest decisions often have to be made in days--and sometimes hours. Bid protest strategy is one skill that you don't want to learn "on the job" after losing a contract that you've chased for years. The course's unique focus on the use of protests to enhance sales and marketing strategies will add a powerful set of tools to your federal marketing portfolio. <a href = "http://www.fedmarket.com/seminars/bid_protest.shtml?cid=1214429089-15514"> <b>Info</b></a>
