Our company was embroiled in a contractual nightmare with a government QAR. Our own efforts to first comply with, and then question, a barrage of constant changing restrictive/expensive paperwork & review requirements outside the scope of the original contract ultimately resulted in a contentious, nonproductive and punitive relationship with the quality representative. CBR met with us to analyze the situation, offered suggested solutions; performed extensive research of all contract documents, QAR correspondence, and relevant FAR clauses; and provided draft correspondence to all cognizant agencies. CBR's total services were efficient, timely, honest and informative; and they effected a resolution which was mutually beneficial to our company and to our customer. This was the second time we required the consulting services of CBR; both projects were resolved in our favor in a timely manner; and we will not hesitate to call on them when needed. Outstanding service, highly recommended, greatly appreciated!

I have worked with CBR many years. In all those years CBR has always given my company the correct information required to understand the procurement process and assist in bid preparation, many times late at night or with short notice. CBR has many years of knowledge in dealing with procurement issues and will assist in the entire bid process from finding the solicitation to the preparation of the bid. I have known Brenda and Ray over thirty years and you never find better people to work with. If you need a solution to a problem they will find it. Dennis L. Tash, Franklin Alarm Technologies LLC.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We do not have a standard pricing system for our services inasmuch as the services that we provide differs drastically in level of effort required based upon the individual client's needs. We do utilize average pricing for such documents as Business Plans from which to adjust pricing based upon the level of detail that the Thumbtack customer offers within their project description.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We at CBR pride ourselves in personal contact with all of our customers. Since the project descriptions submitted in Thumbtack are often slight in content we offer our phone number for potential customers to contact us after reviewing our quote. With that contact we review further detail about the customer's needs. We also provide the first step of information gathering before the customer makes a final decision to hire us. At that time we present payment plan options based upon the customer and their expressed needs. Because we also are a small business we are able to provide our services at a price that is significantly lower than marketplace competitors. The prices that we display as a quote are always honored regardless of the level of effort that any particular customer takes to complete their project to their satisfaction. We enter all business arrangements assuming that the potential customer is going to require more guidance than they have originally expressed so there are no hidden fees to be presented later by our firm.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Brenda Earnest has college-level education and training in a wide variety of business fields. This includes such subjects as Basic and Advanced Contract Administration, Basic and Advanced Contract Law, Cost and Price Negotiations, Value Engineering, and various other college-credited education. She served as a civil servant for the U.S. Army fulfilling the roles of Contract Administrator, Contract Negotiator, and Contracting Officer with a distinguished 36-year career. All of these aspects of Brenda's career provided the opportunity to excel at business writing and all other aspects of business management. The firm has provided 20 years of experience in serving clients with a wide variety of business documents that range from simple business plans to complex plans, customer surveys, analysis, and presentations, to complex technical and pricing proposals for solicitation response. Ray Earnest serves as the Vice President and Director of Operations for the firm, providing the first-hand technical expertise in Construction and Manufacturing. This expertise is gleaed from his 40-year career in Construction Management, 26 of those years spent as a Construction Manager for the U.S. Army where the facilities were predominantly servicing manufacturing processes.
