JAMIS Prime’s Business Planning can assist you in answering hypothetical questions such as:

• What will my indirect rates look like if I win the large NASA proposal on which we are bidding?
• How many senior scientists will I need to reduce if we lose the large follow-on bid with DOE?
• What will the impact on our rates be if we decide to subcontract out the engineering services on DOT contract?
• If we open up a second office and move to two sets of rates, what impact will that have on existing contracts and future bids?
• If we overrun our upside budget by 15% on the Navy jobs, how will that affect revenue?
• If we win all jobs forecasted with 50% or higher probability, what will our hiring profile look like for next year?

The business planning system also provides tools to routinely develop and update estimates to complete for projects and jobs.
