FederalContracts

Government contract bidding site built around your company profile

Most bid notification services send you more. This one sends you less, and tells you why. Here is everything the product does, stated plainly.

Profile matching, not keyword alerts

A keyword alert is a filter. A profile match is a judgment. The difference shows up in week two, when the keyword alert has gone back to sending two hundred notices and the match list is still three items long.

  • Scoring against NAICS codes, capability text, past performance, set-aside status, geography and value band
  • A score out of 100 on every notice, with the contributing factors visible
  • One plain sentence per match explaining the fit, written for a human who has to decide
  • Weak matches scored and explained rather than silently dropped
  • Weighting you can adjust when the business changes, for example after a new certification

Federal, state and local solicitations in one feed

  • Federal solicitations, amendments, question periods and award notices
  • State, county and municipal bid boards, on Capture and Enterprise
  • Set-aside flags carried through from the source notice, not guessed
  • Custom sources on Enterprise, including prime contractor portals and agency lists
  • Agency views for the buyers you sell to most, for example dod contract opportunities and dhs contracting opportunities

Saved searches per business line

A firm with two revenue lines has two pipelines, and one shared feed serves neither of them.

  • 5 saved searches on Bid Desk, 50 on Capture, unlimited on Enterprise
  • A separate profile and a separate digest per business line on Capture and Enterprise
  • Filters on NAICS, agency, set-aside, place of performance, value band and days remaining
  • Saved searches feed the digest, so the list you tuned is the list you receive

Question deadlines and response deadlines, tracked separately

The question deadline is where a bid is shaped and it closes long before the response date. Missing it quietly costs more than missing the response date loudly.

  • Response deadlines tracked on every saved opportunity, question deadlines on Capture and Enterprise
  • Reminders before each date, to the owner of the bid
  • Amendments and extensions update the board the day they post
  • Custom milestones on Enterprise, for internal gate reviews and pricing sign-off
  • A single board view of everything in flight, sorted by what closes first

Competitor award history next to the opportunity

  • Prior awards for the same NAICS code and agency, with awardees, values and dates
  • The incumbent identified, so you know whether this is a recompete and who holds it
  • Award patterns across an agency, so you can see where your capability actually sells
  • Last 3 years on Bid Desk, full history with unlimited exports on Capture and Enterprise
  • More on reading this before you bid: federal contracts database

Alerts that fit how your team already works

  • Daily match digest by email, one per profile or business line
  • Slack and Microsoft Teams alerts on Capture and Enterprise
  • Webhooks on Enterprise, for routing to a queue or a ticket system
  • Read API on Capture for pushing matched opportunities into your CRM
  • Full API and custom ingest on Enterprise
  • Per team routing on Enterprise, so the right business line gets the right notice

Seats, roles and audit for a real organization

  • 3 seats on Bid Desk, 15 on Capture, unlimited on Enterprise
  • SSO with SAML and OIDC on Enterprise
  • Roles and permissions per business line on Capture and Enterprise
  • Audit log of profile changes, bid decisions and exports on Enterprise
  • Data freshness: next business day on Bid Desk, same day on Capture, contractual on Enterprise
  • Card payment on Bid Desk, card or invoice on Capture, invoice and purchase orders on Enterprise

Data handling, retention and access control are set out on federal contractor data security.
