The ability to keep a bid plan on track ensures that every phase of the proposal process is completed on time, ultimately leading to a timely submission. However, the complexity of coordinating multiple tasks and contributors can often lead to delays. The risk of a derailed schedule is significant. Time is a finite resource, and any delays can compress the remaining schedule, forcing teams to rush and potentially compromise the quality of the proposal. Moreover, missing the submission deadline can disqualify the bid altogether, wasting the effort and resources invested.
