The GovCon Grove - Good Government supported by Great Companies?- October 17, 2022

Winning business in the crazy, hypercompetitive, wonderfully mission focused GovCon sector is hard enough. Finding partners who do it the right way can be even harder.?????

Speaking of partners, first, ICYMI the latest OS AI Know Thy Competitor segment:?

• Do you know which SDVOSB and VECTOR Prime, in Q422 alone, added a Prime role on the $650M VA IDIQ; secured a nearly $90M contract… without competition; and picked up another strategic win to support VA mental health and suicide prevention efforts? Think it has been an overnight success? Think again. See who we are talking about here https://bit.ly/3RyBzYk?????

As usual, included below we continue to shine a light on the good stuff, highlighting a few weekly examples of leading GovCon firms and executives who are proving that they understand it is not just about winning, but about building a lasting corporate culture and giving back.??

• Why support the #community for only one day when you can do it all week?! Dev Technology Group, Inc. has claimed a week of giving back, identifying multiple groups within their community they will be getting behind: N Street Village; Food for Others; After-School All-Stars, Washington DC; Homestretch, Inc.; Honor Flight Network; and South Lakes High School PTSA. #supportlocal??
• Building on its prior experience partnering with Woodlawn middle/high schools to fund summer bridge programs, Index Analytics LLC is back at it, supporting this event focused on helping educators learn more about Conscious Discipline, a classroom management program designed to enable teachers to address the emotional and social needs of their students.??
• Easy Dynamics Corp showed its appreciation for its team, by hosting a Crab Fest for team members and their families with seafood, drinks, and some fun crab-themed decorations. #passtheoldbayandhotbutter #employeeappreciation?
• Recognizing health is about the whole body, T and T Consulting Services, Inc. is supporting the HighThrive Foundation for its Annual Wellness Event with expert-led activities to explore transcendental meditation, yoga, finances, social dancing, relationships, and tai chi. #wholebodyhealth #DownwardFacingDog?
• We love that D&G Solutions is not only volunteering alongside but shining a spotlight on Homes For Our Troops and its efforts to support Veterans and their families. #shinealight??
• Getting out to help people in need, the Bestica Inc. team got together to spend the day in support of their local food bank. The pictures say it all. "Bestica gives back. ??It's part of who we are as a company. It's part of who we are as humans."?
• We know that part of culture is how you engage your team and we heard advice lately that recommended letting the people you hire do the job they were brought on to do. For those looking to evaluate their own culture, or improve on it, this article by Gartner entitled ‘Micromanaging Your Remote Workers? Own It, Then Fix It.’ has some great tips to share. #leadfrombehind??
