First of all, you must have a general understanding of the content of your topic. At this stage, you must roughly determine what to do and list it in items. At this time, you can focus on some review materials, and you can also take a general look at some specific research materials. The design of the subject content must fully mobilize various related resources, such as various existing instruments and equipment, relevant research results, as well as the personnel's subject background and scientific research experience, etc. The content must reflect innovation and feasibility. Needless to say, I need to say more about the importance of innovation. It is difficult for something without any new ideas to be approved. In addition to being innovative, it also has feasibility. Otherwise, no matter how good your idea is, it won’t work if you don’t have the ability to complete it. The content of the bid document must be as substantial as possible. Otherwise, if you apply for hundreds of thousands, and people see that there is so little to do, they will naturally not approve that much money. I know of a National Natural Science Foundation bid that requested more than 100,000 yuan, but in the end, the government approved more than 200,000 yuan because experts said there was a lot of content and they were worried that the money would not be enough.
After roughly deciding what to do, you need to consider how to do it and write down a technical route. This requires going deep into the technical route. Not only do you need to find all the information about your project, you can also find information about some related projects. Obtaining information is a very important ability. I need to read the collected information carefully and form my own opinions for my own use. The technical route should be as detailed as possible, otherwise, others will think that your bid is empty. At the same time, it should also be organized clearly and try to use some charts, flow charts, etc. This is important because it will change the external image of your bid and enhance its quality. At this stage, you may find that some of the content you wanted to do before cannot be done, so you need to make some modifications and adjustments to the previous content. A bidding document may involve many aspects such as pharmacology, analysis, synthesis, pharmaceutics, industrialization, and finance. One person's knowledge will inevitably be insufficient, so you should humbly ask others for advice. Even if it is in a field that you are not familiar with, you must complete it carefully, so that it will be challenging. It is best to have a few experts look at the bid document you have written. Others may be able to see the flaws in your bid document at a glance. You should also read it several times and ponder it over and over again.
It is necessary to visit more relevant websites, such as the National Natural Science Foundation website and provincial and municipal science and technology related websites, to know what aspects of the country’s key support, understand the national 11th Five-Year Development Outline, and combine the national and social needs. Develop the significance of the discussion topic. A tender document should preferably have several highlights. You have to think about what the highlights and advantages of your tender document are. The advantages of the research team, the advantages of the project, comparison with similar projects, what are the improvements, what are the new ideas, and whether independent intellectual property rights can be formed, all these must be explained one by one.
You must have a sense of time and when to progress to which step, so as not to panic. Many bid documents may require you to provide a lot of related things, such as the company's financial statements, cash flow analysis, profit analysis, the company's number of patents, number of personnel, etc., as well as the signatures of relevant leaders. It takes a lot of time and energy to do these well. Yes, you need to set aside a little more time. It is best to have relevant departments assist in solving this problem, because it involves some specialized knowledge, and without the help of other departments, a lot of information is difficult to obtain.
The ability to write tender documents must be improved through exercise. There is a need to pay attention to which parts should be more detailed and which parts can be more vague. One tender was rejected because it was vague in key areas. Experts said there was too much room for maneuver. There is also the issue of choosing the application port (such as the application code of the National Natural Science Foundation of China). For the same materials, if you choose different application calibers, the results may be different. Because the amount of funds and the number of people applying for different ports are different.
