Professionals to the Core
All PP&A staff members are proposal, communication
and business development professionals. Our firm is comprised
of primarily full-time staff with background and experience
in communications, technical writing, editing, design, graphics
layout and design, desktop publishing and document production,
as opposed to a network of on-call stringers. We also maintain
a stable of subject matter experts, and agency and program
experts that we access when appropriate.
