When federal growth stalls, the cause is almost always structural.

CIG diagnoses the full problem across capture, proposals, pricing, and compliance, then builds a solution around what's actually broken.

Findings

Most growth challenges are structural.

Five recurring patterns account for nearly every stalled pipeline we've reviewed. None of them are talent problems. They're process gaps.

01
Undisciplined capture decisions
02
Late-stage compliance surprises
03
Misaligned pricing strategy
04
Weak evaluation positioning
05
Reactive post-award risk management
We address root causes, not surface symptoms.
Services

The evaluation scorecard.

Every recommendation is grounded in how federal evaluators actually think, read, and score, because our founding team was the evaluators.

01

Capture & Growth Strategy

Disciplined opportunity qualification, agency positioning, and account strategy for sustainable federal growth.

→ A prioritized, defensible pipeline.

02

Evaluator-Calibrated Proposal Reviews

Senior-led color teams and evaluation modeling grounded in real source selection experience.

→ Submissions that perform under scrutiny.

03

Compliance & Risk Pre-Flight

Structured compliance matrices, instruction mapping, and rapid-turn submission checks.

→ Proposals that survive technical and administrative review.

04

Pricing & Price-to-Win Strategy

Margin-aware rate design, price-to-win guardrails, and CPARS alignment strategy.

→ Competitive pricing that protects long-term economics.

05

Training for Contractors & Agencies

Evaluator-informed capture, proposal, and compliance training tailored to your vehicle, agency, or growth stage.

→ Internal teams that operate with discipline and clarity.
