    What a project approach section does

    The project approach explains your methodology, timeline, phasing, team structure, risk mitigation strategy, and delivery model. Evaluators use it to assess whether your team has a credible and realistic plan for execution.

    Common sections in a project approach

    A typical approach section includes an overview of methodology, implementation phases, staffing and roles, quality assurance, risk management, and communication planning. The structure should follow the solicitation's requirements.
