Federal Procurement Intelligence | SAM.gov & Bid/No-Bid Analysis

Ajax, Canada
$45 per hour
11 jobs
$10K+ total earnings

With 10 years in competitive intelligence and market research, I help companies determine which federal markets and opportunities are worth pursuing before they invest time and money in proposals. I use AI to work faster, but I don't trust it. I check every number against the original government record, and if something cannot be confirmed, I flag it. Every finding in your report comes with a link, so you can see for yourself where it came from. A recent client said: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 "He worked across USAspending, SAM and HigherGov, reconciled thousands of contract records and cross checked the totals two different ways. I went through the numbers myself and everything tied out. He also marked each statement as verified, calculated or interpretation so I could see where each one came from, which I have not seen anyone else do." I analyze government spending, agency buying patterns, incumbents, competition, set-aside eligibility, contract vehicles, historical pricing, and recompete timing to provide a clear pursue, monitor, or pass recommendation. I work across products and services, including manufacturing, construction, professional services, transportation, staffing, security, and technology. WHAT I CAN DELIVER ✅ Federal market entry assessments ✅ SAM.gov opportunity qualification ✅ Bid or no bid analysis ✅ Agency and government buyer mapping ✅ Competitor and incumbent research ✅ Historical award and pricing analysis ✅ NAICS, PSC, set-aside, and contract vehicle research ✅ Expiring contract and recompete identification ✅ Sources sought, RFI, and acquisition forecast monitoring ✅ Qualified opportunity pipelines with direct source links ✅ Capture research and proposal intelligence ✅ AI-assisted solicitation analysis, compliance matrices, and source verification My research sources include SAM.gov Opportunities and Contract Awards, USAspending, HigherGov, GSA resources, agency procurement forecasts, public records, and state and local procurement portals. Most research gives you a list. I tell you which opportunities to bid on, which to monitor, and which to skip, with the evidence behind each recommendation, so your proposal time goes where you can realistically win. Tell me what your company sells and which market or opportunity you are considering. I can help you assess the fit, identify the barriers, and decide where to focus your effort.

RFP Management | Proposal Writing | AI Enabled Proposal Libraries

Toronto, Canada
$50 per hour
2 jobs

I'm a bid management professional with nearly a decade running RFPs, Pitch Decks, and Deal Desk operations for technology companies in high-compliance industries like SLED, Healthcare, and Purchasing Agencies. I have submitted >$100M in bids with a >60% advancement rate across my career. I own the function behind your bids. Qualification and go/no-go scoring, compliance matrices, executive summaries and technical narratives, the pricing story, and on-time submission through procurement portals. Then I build the system underneath so every future bid gets faster, cleaner, and more competitive. I've stood that function up three times, including a 2,000+ entry Loopio content library that cut manual drafting by 40%. What that has produced: • >$100M in bids with a >60% advancement rate across my career. • Maintained a Loopio knowledge base of over 2,000 reusable answers and created Confluence-based process playbooks to enable faster onboarding and reduce SME involvement in repetitive tasks. • Increase of advancement rate (+25%) and win rate (+10%) across my career. Where I go deep: • RFP & Bid Management: end-to-end ownership of RFPs, RFIs, RFQs, and security questionnaires, from intake to compliant, on-time submission. • RFP Content Library Management: building and maintaining libraries in Loopio and Responsive so your team can self-serve accurate answers in minutes. • Content & SOP Writing: the playbooks, templates, and enablement that turn a scramble into a repeatable process your whole team can run without me in the room • Grant Writing & Management: the same compliance-driven, rubric-scored discipline applied to funders: letters of intent, foundation and program narratives, and budget justifications built to each funder's exact criteria and deadline • Pitch Deck & Executive Narrative Support: sharpening the story and structure behind sales decks, executive summaries, and board-level presentations. I bring senior-level strategy and deal-desk commercial experience most proposal writers simply don't have; at a fraction of an agency's cost. I can tell you which bids are worth answering, not just answer the ones you hand me.
