?? GovCon Reality Check: Beating the Incumbent Isn’t About Luck—It’s Strategy. ?? We are partnering with FedSavvy Strategies' Brian Lindholm for an exclusive webinar on "Taking on the Incumbent – Winning Strategies to Flip the Script." Incumbents aren’t invincible—they lose contracts all the time. But if you’re not strategic in how you exploit their weaknesses and counter their strengths, you’ll be just another challenger in the mix. ?? What you’ll get in this session: ? How to analyze agency evaluation trends—because not every customer is in love with the incumbent’s staffing and leadership team. ? How to pre-position early and align with the current administration’s priorities—regulatory shifts, budget realignments, and DOJ policies are shaping the GovCon landscape in real time. ? How to make the agency WANT a change—even when the incumbent thinks they have it locked. ? Live Q&A—your chance to ask the tough questions. You need this playbook if you’re serious about winning big and unseating entrenched incumbents. ?? March 19 | 4:00 PM EST ??

The Weaknesses That Can Unseat an Incumbent – Are You Ready to Win? Incumbents in #GovCon aren’t invincible—many lose contracts because of their weaknesses. The key to winning? Knowing how to exploit these vulnerabilities strategically. Common Incumbent Pitfalls: ? Complacency: Relying too much on past success, assuming agencies won’t consider a change. ? Inflexible Processes: Outdated systems and resistance to innovation hinder responsiveness. ? Weak Market Intelligence: Failing to track and adjust to shifting priorities and trends. ? Siloed Operations: Teams working in isolation lead to misaligned and ineffective proposals. ? Overconfidence in “Incumbency Moats”: Many incumbents falsely believe no one else can understand the work like they do—yet they likely won the contract by replacing someone else. Join us for an exclusive GovCon strategy session with FedSavvy Strategies’ Brian Lindholm and our President, Tan Wilson. We’ll break down how to flip the script and take on an incumbent with precision. ?? March 19 | 4:00 PM EST ??

Here is some excellent advice from a credible #GovCon #SME, Shauna Weatherly. We would like to hear from Maria Panichelli about filing a claim. #Entellect #contractsmanagement #FY25 Tan Wilson Martha Ellison, CPCM, CFCM Annette Church, MBA, CF APMP David J. Valencia, MBA, MS, CFCM, ASM Jaime Gracia
Federal Acquisition SME Retired (35+ Yrs Federal Service), Unlimited CO/KO Warrant, Contracting Chief, DAWIA III, FAC-C & COR III, SB Advocate, & Certified WOSB Helping You Expand Your Federal Contracting Knowledge
I'm hearing from Contracting Officers at several agencies that (allegedly) they can no longer sign contracts without express permission from the highest on high. They are also (allegedly) being told to tell contractors who are due payments for outstanding invoices on terminated contracts to file a claim. Then, (allegedly), the same is happening with some declined orders made with the purchase card. Contractors are reporting declined charges when running cards when readying products for shipment and Federal attorneys at agencies are allegedly also saying while they know it's wrong, businesses must file a claim to get reimbursed. Luckily these vendors have for the most part been able to get paid after some discussion or letters from attorneys. Contracting Officers are also (allegedly) not being afforded legal sufficiency reviews from agency counsel prior to signing termination actions. My advice for COs (and contractors too, as applicable) is to consider documenting-- ?? who gives you the termination order, ?? any written or verbal instructions related to termination procedures or authorities to be used and from whom, ?? your request for a legal sufficiency determination by legal counsel and if it was obtained or denied and by whom (For COs.) ?? a record of any responses by the contractor related to outstanding payments due, ?? any direct reply to contractor inquiries and from whom, and ?? an MFR summarizing the actions you were directed to take against your professional judgment or in violation (if applicable) of any unchanged standing agency policy or processes. (For COs.) Short of a contractual deficiency, labor violation, or system deficiency on the behalf of the contractor, the Government must pay a contractor when the contractor's contractual obligations have been met to receive payment; inspection and acceptance has been made by the Government. The Government must typically provide a written notice to the contractor before withholding any payment, explaining the reason for the action and the steps necessary to resolve the Government's concerns. I'm not convinced this notification is happening because of the numbers of moving parts in what is going on right now and employee departures.
