How do SDVOSBs develop a price-to-win estimate?
Price-to-win (PTW) is an estimate of the price the likely awardee will submit. Develop PTW by: analyzing recent awards for similar work (FPDS-NG, USAspending.gov), reviewing competitors' GSA Schedule rates, understanding the incumbent's cost structure, and assessing your own cost build-up. Tools like FPDS and Deltek provide historical data. PTW analysis helps you price competitively without leaving money on the table.
