Win More Government Contracts

The GovTech Bidding Landscape

Government technology contracts represent enormous opportunity—and enormous complexity. SLED (State, Local, Education) and Federal markets combined represent over $200 billion in annual IT spending. But winning these contracts requires navigating procurement rules, compliance requirements, and evaluation criteria that differ from commercial sales.

What Makes Government RFPs Unique

Compliance Requirements

Government RFPs come loaded with compliance requirements that don't exist in commercial deals:

Federal Requirements:

• FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulation) clauses

• NIST cybersecurity frameworks (800-53, 800-171)

• Section 508 accessibility compliance

• FedRAMP authorization for cloud services

• FISMA security controls

SLED Requirements:

• State-specific procurement regulations

• Diverse supplier participation goals

• Local preference provisions

• State data residency requirements

Each requirement demands specific documentation. Missing one can disqualify your bid entirely.

The Past Performance Problem

Government evaluators weight past performance heavily. "Have you done this before?" matters as much as "Can you do this?"

Most GovTech companies have relevant past performance—but struggle to present it effectively. The perfect case study is buried in a folder somewhere, and nobody remembers exactly what you delivered for that 2022 state contract.

Velocibid's semantic search transforms past performance into a searchable asset. Describe the capability you need to demonstrate, and the system surfaces relevant contracts, deliverables, and metrics from your history.

Acronym-Heavy Communication

Government buyers speak a different language. A commercial pitch about "cloud security" needs to become "FedRAMP Moderate authorization with NIST 800-53 rev5 controls" for federal buyers.

Velocibid learns your compliance terminology. Upload your security documentation, ATO packages, and previous winning proposals. The AI adapts to agency-specific language and regulatory references.
