Commit Early to Education and Information Sharing

July 27, 2013

The goal of any advocacy campaign is to provide political “cover” for a positive decision by maintaining an appropriate presence throughout the entire process—from idea origination to facility construction.

Proponents must be a part of the process, informing policy development, procurement, leading (or at least co-operating) in the approvals phase, and then sharing the responsibility of educating the public and media once the project is under construction and headed towards operations.

Showing up when an RFP is issued is almost always too late for any legitimate vendor.
