Abstract :
A review is made of the importance and significance of the technical communication in engineering R & D contract proposals. This paper shows what the Services are seeking in contracts with engineering firms and outlines the basic elements that the proposal should contain. Procedures for evaluating finished proposals are discussed, and a number of specific reasons are given for rejecting proposals. General recommendations are given for effectively shaping the material in an engineering proposal.
