In evaluating a proposal, we need to look at a number of factors:

First, will it work? -- Does the proposed design accomplish the stated 
objective?
Next: Is it useful?
And: Can the candidate be expected to accomplish the task within the allotted 
time frame?
Finally: Is it the best use for our limited resources (funding, mentor time, 
etc.)?

If your presentation makes it easier to answer each of those questions in a 
positive manner, it will increase the likelihood that it will get funded.
