Hi. Thanks for visiting and learning more about how Scherff Consulting can support your team. I started Scherff Consulting to be the support my employers always seemed to need.
On the formal side, I am a Shipley trained and APMP-certified proposal manager. In the last 10+ years, I have led federal proposal activities for small and large companies for contracts with the Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Department of State, The National Cancer Institute, U.S. Navy Space and Naval Warfare Command (SPAWAR), Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC), U.S. Army, Installation Management Command (IMCOM), and more. Having worked in the fast-paced, quick reaction environment “proposal shop” for years and I have encountered every personality type and proposal challenge.
Process and Proposal Teams. On the practical side, I believe there is no standardized set of methods and templates that fit all companies and opportunities. With industry standards as a foundation, Scherff Consulting builds a process that fits your team and use it to drive the team and proposal forward, whether in a war room, or in a virtual team.
The proposal process is the key to a successful submission, but the proposal team is what powers that process. When we are engaged, teams have the clear and specific information they need. There is a single point of contact for all questions and challenges. In short, there is someone in charge of moving your proposal forward, so your team can contribute, and still do their day jobs.
Talented Support. Along the way I have found the best coordinators, writers, editors, and graphic designers—the ones that are a pleasure to work with and great at what they do—and I make them available to my customers.
Conservative Rates. As a small business owner, I understand that every dollar counts. That is why I am committed to offering my customers the option to buy only the support they need and reasonable, conservative rates.
Thank you for learning more about the federal proposal support services Scherff Consulting provides. I look forward to talking with you and to putting our services to work for your company.
