In most commercial construction firms, the people who generate leads are not the same people who estimate, propose, and close the work. When the handoff between these teams is informal or inconsistent, qualified leads fall through the cracks, prospects get frustrated by having to repeat themselves, and winnable work is lost. The BD-to-Sales Lead Handoff Checklist creates a clean, accountable handoff process so every qualified lead gets the follow-through it deserves. This checklist provides:

✓ A 7-point lead qualification scorecard that ensures your team only hands off leads worth pursuing

✓ A comprehensive 22-field handoff information package that captures decision-makers, competitive landscape, client concerns, and relationship context

✓ A responsibility matrix that defines exactly who owns each step from initial lead generation to win/loss debrief

✓ A built-in accountability tracker and the 48-hour follow-up rule to ensure every handoff is logged and every lead is contacted promptly
