Creative Clinic: Part 2 of Navigating the Bid and RFP Process

You’ve found an opportunity—but what happens when the portal won’t cooperate, the requirements aren’t clear, or you’re unsure how to get answers from a purchasing department?

Part One introduced the bid and RFP process. Part Two takes the conversation into the real-world challenges of navigating it. This interactive roundtable invites participants to share experiences, ask candid questions, and work through the pain points that can make pursuing government contracts frustrating and time-consuming.

Join Genyne Edwards, CEO of P3 Development Group; Geraud Blanks, Managing Director of Culture x Design; and additional guests for an open community conversation about common pitfalls, lessons learned, and practical ways to reduce stress throughout the process. From navigating procurement portals to communicating with purchasing departments, we’ll discuss what has—and hasn’t—worked and explore solutions together.

Bring a challenge you’re facing, a lesson you’ve learned, or a question you haven’t had the chance to ask. Whether you attended Part One, have experience submitting bids, or are just beginning to explore government opportunities, you’re welcome to join.

Designed for small-business owners, entrepreneurs, consultants, creatives, and nonprofit leaders, this session is an opportunity to learn from one another and leave better prepared for your next bid or RFP.

Genyne Edwards, CEO of P3 Development Group, one of Milwaukee’s most respected advisory firms, will facilitate the workshop. Genyne brings extensive experience securing state and local contracts and advising businesses on certifications, procurement policies, strategic partnerships, and public-sector contracting.
