Why CIG
We did not study the system.
We built and operated it.
CIG's founding team includes former source selection officials, senior contracting officers, and 1102-series executives with 60+ years of combined federal acquisition experience across DoD, HHS, DHS, and civilian agencies. Training is delivered by practitioners who have written the solicitations, chaired the boards, and defended the awards.
Source Selection and Evaluation Board Training
Structured training for contracting officers, contract specialists, and technical evaluators on the source selection process under FAR Part 15: evaluation factor development, proposal review and rating methodology, documentation standards for source selection records, and protest-resilient award decision practices.
Small Business Program and Set-Aside Training
Training for contracting officers and small business specialists on FAR Part 19 set-aside requirements, SBA certification program mechanics, the Rule of Two analysis, and how to structure acquisitions that maximize small business participation while maintaining competition and defensibility.
Acquisition Modernization Support
For agencies navigating the FAR Overhaul and regulatory transition, CIG provides targeted training on model deviations, updated streamlined procedures, and compliance implications of the current regulatory environment.
