Does Agile project management have a place in proposal management?

IT projects today frequently employ an Agile development approach. At the 2014 APMP-NCA Mid-Atlantic Conference, Maryann Lesnick looked at these Agile approaches, and in particular the Scrum model, to answer the question: Does Agile Project Management have a place in Proposal Management?

On Scrum projects, there are three roles: Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Team. Can these roles translate into our industry? What are the parallels between software engineering and proposal management? What can we learn from Agile software engineering disciplines that can be applied to proposal management? What new benefits might be realized from making the proposal and BD lifecycle more agile?
