The Critical Edge in Federal Contracting Most
Small Businesses Miss

Why Your GovCon Identity Determines Your Success Before You Even Bid

In the hypercompetitive federal marketplace, an alarming 80% of small businesses fail to win their first contract.
The reason isn't poor proposal writing—it's inadequate positioning before the proposal stage ever begins.

Government agencies and prime contractors make critical judgments about your
company's capability and credibility long before an RFP is released.

Without the right federal identity foundation (streetcred), your business appears as an unknown risk regardless of
your actual capabilities.

The invisible barriers blocking your federal success:

  • Federal contracting officers research companies before solicitations are even drafted
  • Prime contractors build teaming relationships based on perceived readiness and credibility
  • Agency program managers develop preferences for vendors with established federal presence
  • Without proper positioning, you're spending bid & proposal dollars on opportunities you can't win

Our exclusive program has helped dozens of small businesses transform from unknown entities to trusted partners in the federal marketplace.

What happens without StreetCred™?

  • Your SAM profile sits inactive with no engagement
  • Prime contractors overlook you for teaming opportunities
  • Federal agencies perceive you as high-risk regardless of your capabilities
  • You waste thousands on proposal development for opportunities you can't win

Don't become another statistic in the federal graveyard of well-intentioned small businesses. Build your federal reputation strategically, systematically, and successfully with the only program designed specifically to establish your credibility before you bid.
