What Grant's read shows
- Grant's call: Prepare, Needs review, Skip, or Expected date passed. A forecast cannot be bid yet, so the words say what to do with the time.
- Confidence: High, Medium or Low.
- What works for you and What holds you back: the reasons for and against.
- Still unknown: facts the record does not give yet, and how to find each one.
- Prime path, Teaming path and Subcontract path: the three ways in. Each path reads Go, Not yet, Not needed or No-go. The best path has the tag Best way in.
What the lower sections show
- How to win it: past winners, what work like this was worth, and this office's record. See Understand comparable awards and counted figures in a forecast.
- Get ready: numbered steps. Tags on each step say who does it, for example You or Grant can help.
- Timeline: today, the time to prepare, and the expected date. See Federal fiscal-year and state or local forecast dates explained.
- Forecast source: who published the forecast, and the link to open it.
