A few of the key things are time to market and predictability in what funding is going to be available. One of the things that can continue to be improved--it's always a process of continuous improvement--is streamlining the selection and procurement processes for many of these contracts, while maintaining the required transparency and fairness in the procurement process.
When a company has a better ability to forecast when a contract may become available and when they have a better ability to forecast what the government's priorities are going to be in future years, they have the opportunity to decide strategically where they wish to invest their own company resources. That would be of great assistance to many small and medium companies.
