SEATTLE, Jan. 18 /- Companies doing business with the public sector can now expand their sales opportunities and fine-tune their proposals like never before, thanks to two new services from Onvia. Onvia (NASDAQ:ONVI) today announced the expansion of its innovative Onvia Navigator search platform to include the ability to search specification documents often included with government bid solicitations. This expanded search capability coincides with the debut of Onvia's new Winning Proposal Library, a database of proposals that resulted in awarded government contracts.
Onvia Navigator puts the Onvia Dominion(TM) database at users' command, providing the power to search more than 3 million government procurement records. Now, searching for government sales leads attains a powerful new dimension with new expanded search functionality. Users can now broaden their search to include the details of specification documents related to the government bids, RFPs and other procurement records previously available. These documents include bid and proposal specification forms, advance notices, grant details, presolicitations and other supporting documentation such as amendments.
Onvia's new expanded search feature allows immediate access to over 600,000 documents. Product and service providers can find opportunities they otherwise might have missed, and qualify these opportunities with more information from their search results. Companies of all sizes, doing business at all levels of government, will benefit from the ability to search these often hard-to-find documents for the government sales intelligence they need.
In addition to finding more actionable government sales leads, businesses of all sizes can now see what elements go into proposals that win government contracts, with Onvia's new Winning Proposals Library. This data will help government contractors better position their companies to win more contracts with state, county, municipal and educational agencies and offices. Proposals are not always awarded to the lowest bidder; many elements factor into contract awards, including company background, project strategies, personnel, and persuasive writing. Winning proposals provide visibility into what separates a proposal from the rest of the pack.
While winning proposals are often available from government agencies, it can be difficult to get a hold of them. Onvia cuts through the red tape by providing winning proposals from a variety of industries including Architecture and Engineering, Business Consulting, Information Technology, and Construction Management. Onvia also offers a custom request service, which allows contractors to make open records requests for specific documents in an anonymous manner and avoid administrative hassles.
Any company that pursues government RFPs will find value in researching winning proposals, especially those companies that are new to the government market. This inside track will allow contractors to perfect their government proposals to be more efficient, professional and persuasive without a time-consuming trial-and-error process. They'll see how successful vendors address the components of a proposal including: company background, qualifications and credentials, personnel and prior experience, project strategies, product specifications, fees and pricing and much more.
