Ep 161: Your GovCon Strategic Plan

In this episode, we talked with Stephanie Marquardt about building a GovCon Strategic Plan. Most companies have a business plan. It’s a 40 plus page document that they created when they started their company. It’s often created and then shoved in a drawer unless you need it for a loan.

This plan combines your corporate strategy with your tactics and goals. This plan is reviewed during your quarterly planning sessions to ensure you are heading in the right direction.
