Acquisition Consulting Services

We provide subject matter expertise in the areas of federal procurement and federal appropriations law. Consulting services are available on either a short-term basis (e.g., responding to complex questions pertaining to federal acquisition and fiscal law) or a long-term basis (e.g., support to contractor proposals and preparing performance-based work statements to the government). Rates will vary depending on the complexity of the requirement, the skill level required and the duration of the engagement, but generally have been between $150 - $500/hour. For our federal customers, consulting services may be procured at discount rates under our GSA MOBIS contract (GS-10F-0355S).

Key Benefits

  • Federal agencies will receive a complete acquisition package tailored to your requirement.  Package includes (as appropriate): The Acquisition Plan, Source Selection Plan, DoD MOCAS Reports, Statement of Work (SOW), Performance Work Statement (PWS), Statement of Objectives (SOO) and Sections L and M.
  • Contractors will receive proposal writing support and strategy development facilitation focused on the particular agency customer.
