I've spent a decade inside the world you're selling into.
Series B/C SaaS. GovTech, HealthTech, Public Safety. Compliance-heavy buyers. A bid team that's usually one person and an RFP Tool collecting dust. I'm not learning your problem on your dime — I've lived it.
Why I'm the Right Fit
to Manage your Bid Desk Pipeline.
No discovery theater. No 'let's hop on a call to understand your needs.' I've lived the RFP grind from the inside—so I can scope your work and give you a real number upfront.
Why I built R. Steeves Consulting.
For years I was the person fixing this inside RevOps—formatting proposals for an Ariba portal, catching the missed deadlines, setting up the security questionnaires nobody had time to do right. I know the work because I did the work. When a mid-market company goes looking for help, the market offers two halves and no whole: a general proposal specialist doesn't know compliance—FedRAMP, SOC 2, the questionnaires that sink deals—and a Deal Desk or RevOps hire doesn't know the proposal craft. The job needs both, and it rarely needs a full-time salary. Without that, the problem festers until it's on fire: a rep panicking 30 minutes from deadline, the leader pulled onto the call, a winnable deal now at risk. They don't need a headcount. They need both skill sets, on demand, only when the deal calls for it. That's the business I built.

20 minutes. I'll read your last RFP, look at your win rate, and tell you whether I'd take the engagement or send you somewhere else. No deck. No pitch.
