About Michael Asner

Michael Asner helps government people (usually auditors or procurement executives) deal with procurement and RFP issues. (He also helps private sector companies understand the RFP process and how to create effective proposals).

For the last 20 years, Michael has provided consulting services, published books and articles, and offered workshops to governments and government agencies throughout North America.

As a consultant, he has dealt with all aspects of the RFP process:

• Analyzed protests and complaints.
• Participated in policy reviews of procurement and RFP processes.
• Most recently, he has acted as a Fairness Officer to ensure that highly visible RFPs can survive public scrutiny.

As an author, he is North America’s largest publisher of RFP information:

• Written dozens of articles for magazines and journals.
• Written 8 text books including Supplier Complaints and Protests, Best RFP Practices from More Than Sixty Jurisdictions, and The Request For Proposal Handbook.
• Since 1995, he has written and published The RFP Report, a newsletter of ideas, checklists and best practices.

Michael is a frequent speaker at conferences. Over the last five years, he has spoken at National Institute of Governmental Purchasers’ (NIGP) annual conference, many NIGP chapter events, National Association of Educational Buyers (NAEB) conferences, Western States Contracting Alliance, and Government Technology conferences.

In his latest endeavor, Michael is working with leading public sector procurement people to develop a series of CD-based training courses dealing with critical problem areas in the RFP process. The first course deals with Statement of Work and was developed by Michael Asner and Terry Davenport, the author of New Mexico's RFP Handbook. This course is available on a CD containing a one-hour PowerPoint presentation narrated by Terry Davenport and a 60-page SOW manual.
