• Begin framing the issue/problem/opportunity in the introduction, following the six moves outlined in Chapter 15 of Technical Communication Today.
• In the body of the document, you'll want to include: 1) the current situation, 2) project plan--a step-by-step plan for resolving the problem/issue/opportunity 3) qualifications 4) costs and benefits--not necessarily monetary. Draw from your sources, when appropriate to support claims and/or frame your project.
• Conclude the proposal following the five moves outlined in Chapter 15.

The proposal should also adhere to the following criteria:

• Be between 1250-1500 words
• Written as concisely as possible
• Addresses the primary reader-users you identified in the reader-centered analysis chart

• Written in single-space, 12-pt. font
• Free of surface-level errors (such as spelling, punctuation, and grammar)
• Include a cover page, table of contents, and works-cited page (these documents are not included in the word count)
