Proposal Engineering

PROPOSAL ENGINEERING

Proposal engineering involves the preparation and submission of detailed proposals in response to requests for proposals (RFPs) from clients, which can include oil companies, government agencies, or other stakeholders. This process is critical for securing contracts for various projects, including exploration, drilling, production, and infrastructure development.
