Solutions for Engineers

Proper consultant teaming has become an essential part of a winning firm's formula. Learning about a project when an RFP is released almost always ensures the best teaming partners are already working with another prime. Being proactive by learning about project opportunities early has become very important to a firm's success.

The Solution

With Daily Projects, Advance Notices and an extensive website database, IMS provides the project research tools to enhance your firm's teaming opportunities. By using the Awarded Contract Report to locate the best teaming partners or following the money with CIPs, Bond Reports and legislative agendas, IMS expands your long-term planning options and marketplace knowledge. Our "advance research" approach along with tailored Target Markets, Disciplines and Geographic Regions allows the needed flexibility to stay ahead of the curve.

Product Descriptions

Anyone can capture website information. Only IMS conducts deep research and communicates with a network of over 35,000 agency contacts to VERIFY upcoming (Advance Notice) project announcements.

Our daily project research is edited and proofed prior to publication. Project announcements are delivered Monday through Friday by email and are always available via IMS' website database.

Ever wonder who won a contract? Our weekly Awarded Contract Report keeps you up to speed and knowledgeable about competition and teaming opportunities.

Bond Measures are a critical source of funding for many municipalities and school districts. IMS continually tracks relevant bond measures and their associated projects. After each election we publish a report with Pass/Fail outcomes and update our project announcements as appropriate.

The IMS subscriber-only website is an unparalleled resource for public-sector agency research including direct links to agency websites, detailed project histories, searchable legislative agendas and CIP/budget documents, Recovery Act requests/allocations and relevant newspaper articles.

In addition to the research material that is available for each agency, the website also allows users to conduct powerful searches and organize project announcements.
