Plunkett Proposal Management

Plunkett Proposal Management helps Canadian organizations win complex government and public-sector contracts. Principal Brandon Plunkett brings 17 years of RFP and proposal leadership, a 30-year cross-sector career, and $150M+ in contracts managed across RFP responses and public-sector submissions.

Services include bid direction and proposal leadership, RFP compliance and scoring optimization (including Social Value criteria), human-led proposal writing and strategic editing, proposal systems and capability building, and fractional or embedded proposal support for teams that need director-level expertise without a full-time hire.

Clients are typically established organizations pursuing federal, provincial, municipal, or enterprise opportunities through portals such as BC Bid, MERX, CanadaBuys, and Biddingo. Some need end-to-end leadership of a single high-stakes pursuit; others need a proposal function built from the ground up, with the content libraries and review structures that make every future bid cheaper and stronger. Brandon has built such functions twice, including inside BC's public healthcare system, so proposals are written for how evaluators actually read and score.

The approach is deliberately human-led. In a market flooded with generic, AI-generated responses, submissions built on authentic evidence, clear win themes, and forensic compliance stand out and score higher. Recent engagements include proposals in construction, paving, waste management, mining, staffing, and custodial services, among them a competitive waste-management bid that beat two national incumbents. Deepest experience spans technology, staffing and recruitment, healthcare, nonprofit, and utilities, and the fundamentals travel to every sector.

One client per bid, always. Every engagement starts with a free strategy call and a clear scope and estimate. Based in Chilliwack, BC, serving clients across Canada.
