Proposal Writer Playbook

3.6 Holding a Gold Team Review Once the proposal is complete, a Gold Team final review should confirm it is ready for submission. This review verifies that recommendations made in previous reviews were implemented by the writers. The Gold Team review is not the time to modify your price, change your solution, or improve grammar. The Gold Team determines if the proposal will receive final authorization before submitting to the customer. Gold Team inputs and outputs are shown in figure 25.
