Determination of Funding• Prior funding levels determined without the use of established

rationale.• FY15-16 funding utilizes a new formula to determine grant

amount.• Currently two variables:

• Geographic coverage square miles• Number of potential clients

• Exploring new variables to enhance formula.

Building the Brand

• Continuous Improvement initiative• Bid Targeting System (BTS)• Proposal Writing Services program• Performance Metrics

Continuous Improvment• Ongoing effort to improve products, services, and

processes. • Seeking "incremental" improvement over time and

"breakthrough" improvement all at once.• Delivery customer valued processes are constantly

evaluated and improved in the light of their efficiency, effectiveness, and flexibility.

Bid Targeting System (BTS)• Providing a prioritization of the most valuable statewide

opportunities and ensuring Michigan businesses are in a position to make competitive bids on those opportunities either individually or as members of a consortium.

• To maximize outcomes, it will be necessary for the MDC to analyze DoD and DHS contracting trends and deliver forecasting support to the PTACs.

Bid Targeting System (BTS)

Proposal Writing Services• Provide resources for greater one-on-one support for bid

preparation. This approach is similar to that of the recently launched Community Ventures program for job seekers.

• While resources are available for general, class-based procurement education, funding restrictions limit the ability to provide the individualized support that is ultimately required for driving MDC outcomes:

• successful contract bids.

PTAC Performance Metrics• Facilitated Service Hours versus

• Facilitated Revenue

• Active Clients

• BTS scoring

• Set-aside awards (8a, SDVOB, women-owned, etc.)
