Some project owners demand competition for the lowest qualified price.  Others have a complex scoring system where they evaluate multiple criteria for an entire project team.  Even if you are the sole-source contractor for a major project owner there are still competitors out there trying to win that customer over every day.

Competing to win consistently boils down to a few questions:

  • What customers and projects should we compete for?
  • What do those customers value the most that we can deliver better than others?
  • What capabilities should we enhance that will improve our competitive position?

Technology is playing a huge role in creating those competitive advantages and will only continue to play a larger role in the future.  There are hundreds of tools available and each add individual value. But the true value is unlocked when these systems are completely integrated.
