Specialized Support for Scientific Programs and Research Teams
When research meets funding deadlines, publication requirements, or stakeholder deliverables, success depends on clear, precise documentation that meets exacting standards.
Lisbon Solutions provides scientific writing, proposal development, and document management services anchored in government and academic research environments. With experience spanning life sciences, military public health, and microgravity research, we understand both the science and the systems that drive successful research programs.
OUR SERVICES
Scientific and Technical Writing
Your research is revolutionary. Your writing should be too.
We translate complex technical and medical concepts into accessible language for diverse audiences while maintaining scientific rigor. From grant proposals to peer-reviewed manuscripts, we craft research documentation that serves your specific goals and meets evaluation criteria.
Our process begins with understanding your audience and requirements. We synthesize source materials with subject-matter expertise, maintain controlled terminology across sections, and ensure tables, figures, and captions align with narrative content to present methods, results, and conclusions with consistency and precision.
Editing and Formatting
Sometimes the difference between acceptance and rejection is in the details.
Our editorial support adapts to your document's stage and needs. Structural edits organize arguments for scientific logic, while substantive and line edits clarify language and align tone for intended audiences. We resolve grammar and usage issues, confirm reference consistency, and ensure tables, figures, and captions match text requirements.
Documents are delivered to target venue specifications, including formatting, length limits, and file conventions. We can adapt existing materials for new opportunities while preserving the accuracy of methods, data, and conclusions.
Proposal Development
The best research ideas don't always win - the best-presented research ideas do.
Using Shipley methodology, we manage competitive proposal development from initial planning through final submission. We establish compliance matrices, coordinate multi-disciplinary teams, and develop technical sections that address solicitation requirements and evaluation criteria.
Throughout development, content is mapped to requirements, cross-references are verified, and potential risks to schedule or completeness are addressed early. We deliver formatted, compliant packages on time to meet solicitation deadlines.
Project Management Support
Great science happens in teams. Great documentation requires orchestration.
Using PMI-aligned practices, we manage projects through their full lifecycle. We also provide document management, from kickoff to submission. We establish milestones, roles, and review points, then maintain version control and status visibility so contributors remain aligned across time zones and institutions.
Changes are recorded, decisions are traceable, and review feedback is translated into actionable edits. Teams gain a single point of accountability for document delivery and an auditable path from draft to final submission that meets funder, journal, and governance standards.
