Unfortunately, the requests for proposals come out only twice a year, but businesses' needs aren't limited to twice a year. Businesses need ongoing funding.
If a business has a problem in November, we have to make it wait until the next request for proposals comes out in June. Only then can we help the business solve its problem. The business world doesn't work that way.
That's one problem. There are others, but I don't have time to list them all.
