Every agency’s spending is on the record: who buys what you sell, through which offices, on what cycle. Most contractors, brand new and battle-tested alike, never read it, and never walk in for the introduction. Core-5 is the report, the strategy, and the outreach program that does.
New contractors bid blind because they do not know the market. Experienced contractors bid reactive because they never stopped. Both are competing on solicitations someone else was positioned for first.
Instead of bidding on whatever posts, you start with the ledger: which agencies buy your services, what they pay, and when. Your first relationships begin before your first bid, which is exactly how the incumbents did it.
Awards you can see posted are awards everyone can see. The report maps adjacent agencies, at-risk revenue, and buying offices you have never engaged. The outreach program puts you in front of them before the next cycle turns.
No mystery boxes. This is the complete list, and what each piece does for you.
We audit what you already have: SAM, the SBA Small Business Search profile formerly known as DSBS, capability statement, deck, and website. We rebuild only what is working against you. Missing pieces get built; solid pieces stay. New contractors get the full stack; established firms get the realignment.
What changes for youWhen the outreach program starts opening doors, every check the buyer runs behind it comes back clean. No introduction gets wasted on a stale profile.
In-depth analysis of the federal market for your codes: the spending record, which agencies and buying offices purchase what you sell, how they buy it (vehicles, set-asides, award patterns), what they pay, incumbent positions, and when contracts come up for renewal.
What changes for youTransparency into contracting activity most firms never look at. You see the market the way a buying office sees it, including the awards your competitors are about to lose.
The report turned into direction for your stage: first targets and entry sequencing if you are new; adjacent agencies, at-risk incumbent work, and pipeline diversification if you are established. Prioritized, sequenced, and mapped to real buying cycles.
What changes for youYou stop bidding on whatever posts and start working a deliberate target list. Your BD hours finally have an address.
The engagement playbook most contractors never build: who to contact at each target (program offices, small business specialists, primes holding the work), what to say and bring, how to sequence introductions, and how to convert a first meeting into a standing relationship.
What changes for youYou are introduced and known to the buyer before the solicitation posts, positioned for opportunities that come to you directly instead of through a portal.
The report is not a data dump. It names the buying pattern, then turns it into the sequence your team can work.
Recollections from the buying side“In my twenty years in federal acquisition, I can count on two hands the vendors who walked in before the solicitation. They won a disproportionate share of everything I awarded back then.”
