Several massive multi-award, strategic contract vehicles such as Army MAPS and CIO-CS (The Store) are set to go live soon. For businesses looking to establish long-term partnerships with the government, these contracts represent a critical gateway to growth and stability. According to Bloomberg, approximately 70% of federal spending now flows through schedules, IDIQs, and GWACs. Securing a position on one of these contracts can transform your business, but the key to success starts long before proposal submission. Success begins with knowing if you’re truly prepared to compete and win.
Winning Starts with Qualifying the Contracts
Winning a spot on large, multiple award Government Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) requires more than just a solid proposal. It starts with a comprehensive qualification process. That means conducting a gap analysis of your current capabilities, aligning them with the contract’s requirements, and performing a competitive analysis to see how you stack up against the competition. By addressing these gaps early, you can determine whether you need to team with another company or refine your internal capabilities to ensure a winning bid.
That’s where OST Global Solutions comes in. We offer qualification services that help you decide whether to pursue a contract, identify gaps in your team’s capabilities, and determine if you need a partner to strengthen your proposal.
