RegisterPaul Monte, Partner and Vice Chair of the firm, will co-present “Winning Design-Build Proposals: From RFEI to Project Award” hosted by the DBIA NYC Metro Region.
Join the DBIA NYC Metro Region for a dynamic, half-day workshop designed for owners, contractors, designers, and project leaders navigating today’s complex design-build procurement environment.
As proposal demands intensify – requiring higher costs, tighter schedules, and deeper integration – this session offers practical insights into how successful teams compete, collaborate, and win.
Explore the full lifecycle of the design-build proposal process, from early engagement (RFEI/LOI) through RFQ, RFP, interviews, and post-award transition. Participants will gain:
- Strategic Insights: Learn how to align design, construction, and estimating teams under deadline pressure.
- Owner Perspectives: Understand how shortlisting decisions are made and what owners truly seek at each phase.
- Hands-on Experience: Interactive breakout sessions to review sample responses, develop win themes, and simulate BAFO negotiations.
- Digital Tools: Best practices for using platforms like Microsoft Teams and SharePoint to manage schedules and content development.
Hear from a moderated panel of experienced professionals providing candid discussion on proposal best practices and lessons learned:
- Allison Agliardo, Senior Director of Commercial Management at Amtrak
