A mathematical model for assigning author page budgets in proposals

Abstract
The author provides guidance in responding to US federal government procurements that include quantitative and qualitative evaluation criteria. Systematic analysis of the relative importance of all evaluation criteria in a request for proposal can optimize page allocations and ensure balanced treatment of customer concerns, thereby achieving a maximum proposal score. A method is presented for determining relationships among evaluation criteria, and thus for making meaningful allocations of pages for proposal sections and subsections. The model lends itself to desktop computer implementation.
