The Problem

Most firms chase federal before they're eligible to win it.

Companies pour months into capture before confirming the basics: whether their compliance posture holds, whether their NAICS and PSC codes match what they sell, whether their past performance is packaged to be believed. The gaps surface at the worst possible moment: mid-pursuit, with a deadline.

This page does two things. First, score yourself in minutes with the interactive assessment below. Then, when you want a deeper read, our fixed-fee $500 audit pressure-tests all six clusters with you, and we credit $250 back as engagement hours when you proceed.

What we look at

Six clusters, pressure-tested.

Compliance posture

Where you stand against the frameworks federal buyers expect, and the gaps that would stop a contract before it starts.

Vehicles & codes

Whether your NAICS/PSC alignment and contract-vehicle strategy actually match the work you want to win.

Past performance

An honest read on whether your past performance is documented and packaged to be credible to an evaluator.

Commitment & pipeline

Executive commitment and pipeline discipline: the two factors that decide whether a federal effort sustains or stalls.

Step 1 · Score your readiness

The $500 audit

How a paid engagement runs.

When you book, the fixed-fee $500 audit takes the self-assessment a level deeper. We credit $250 back as engagement hours when you proceed.

01

Intake review

We collect your registrations, codes, past performance records, and compliance documentation to establish the starting point.

02

Six-cluster audit

We pressure-test compliance posture, contract vehicles, NAICS/PSC alignment, past performance, executive commitment, and pipeline discipline.

03

Findings report

A scored, plain-language readiness report that identifies the gaps most likely to cost you a pursuit, ranked by urgency.

04

Remediation roadmap

A prioritized action plan with clear next steps, so you know exactly what to fix before committing to a federal pursuit.

Our operating model

We advise. Then we execute and carry it to completion.

A consistent operating model on every engagement: scoped to outcomes, built with dated evidence and named owners, and handed off as something you can run.

Step 01

Discover & scope

We start with the real situation: your goals, constraints, and what's actually in place. We scope the engagement to outcomes, not hours.

Step 02

Build & execute

We do the work: build the system, run the process, produce the artifacts. Dated evidence and named owners at every step.

Step 03

Operate & prove

We operate what we build and measure it against the outcome you hired us for. Progress reported in evidence, not adjectives.

Step 04

Hand off & sustain

We leave you with a motion you can run: documentation, cadence, and clarity, so the results hold after the engagement ends.

Where this leads next

The assessment is the front door to the federal ramp. From here, the common next steps are SAM.gov & CAGE Registration, NIST 800-171 & CMMC Readiness, and Agency Targeting & Federal Capture.

Pursue from strength.

Score yourself above, then book the $500 audit and we'll pressure-test all six clusters before you commit to a federal pursuit.
