Drawing on a survey of 97 bid professionals, the Proposal Win Rate Report 2026 digs into why some teams consistently win and most don’t. Across three chapters it lays out the modern proposal engine, the response practices any team can adopt, and where winning teams are heading next, with four takeaways at its core: treat bidding as a core commercial function, build clearly owned proposal teams, institutionalise capture and win-theme discipline, and deploy AI to amplify those capabilities rather than compensate for their absence.
