Electricore will Add Value in Three Ways:

#1 - Proposal Management and Preparation

Electricore will manage the proposal development, write key project management and cost sections, consolidate technical input from team members, and organize proposal reviews and editing. Working with Electricore resolves many common and difficult issues with proposal preparation, including: 

·     Not having sufficient personnel and resources dedicated to proposal development and writing;  

·     Identifying who will be the lead organization in a strong team; 

·     Providing an independent and unbiased internal review of the proposal prior to submission; and

·     Rapid team formation without complicated legal arrangements.

#2 - Program Organization and Teaming
 
Electricore will organize all team members, negotiate and execute individual subcontracts, and provide intellectual property shielding between team members.  Working with Electricore also resolves many common and difficult issues with program organization, including:

·     Providing a fire-wall between team members so that company confidential data and information (technical and cost) is secure;

·     Conducting timely contract negotiations with the Government sponsor and subcontractors; and 

·     Organizing and sponsoring program kick-off meetings.

#3 - Program Administration

Electricore will professionally manage all administrative aspects of the program, from cradle to grave, including schedule & contract management, reporting, and invoicing.

·    Electricore serves as an administrative program manager and signatory for publicly funded research, development, and demonstration programs with consortium participants.

·    Electricore serves as the point of contact between sponsoring agency representatives, participants, and critical subcontractors for all administrative issues throughout the proposal, contract negotiation, and program maintenance phases of a typical program.

·    Acting as a liaison between the government and industry partners allows the industry partners to focus on the research and technical goals of the program, freeing their time, personnel and other resources from the administrative demands of the project. Electricore provides all administrative support including but not limited to financial and technical progress reports, milestone invoicing, site and program review coordination, final reports and additional administrative services required under a program. Electricore works closely with the sponsoring agency's technical management teams.

Working with Electricore eliminates universal challenges with program administration, including:

·     Providing adequate resources to managing the Government's administrative requirements on a project;  

·     Ensuring all deliverables, reports, and forms are submitted per the contract requirements; and

·     Providing ongoing intellectual property shielding between team members ensuring the security of company confidential information.
