Win Themes

Lesson 7 of 14

Win themes are not slogans. They are evidence-backed reasons the government's evaluators should have confidence in the offeror. A good win theme connects a requirement, a risk or need, the offeror's approach, and proof.

Key Takeaways

  • Tie themes to evaluation factors.
  • Support claims with proof.

Common Mistakes

  • Using empty phrases like 'best-in-class'.
  • Creating themes unrelated to scoring.
