The Urgency of Adopting Efficiency Platforms in Government Contracting

Written by Matt Pinkston | April 14, 2025

Recent developments, including the reduction or elimination of certain government agencies that previously funded contracts, have intensified the competition in government contracting. As funding pools tighten, contractors find themselves vying for a shrinking number of opportunities. In this environment, the need for efficiency solutions like Awarded.AI by Procurement Sciences has become more critical than ever.

The Competitive Edge: Efficiency Solutions

The latest statistics reveal that over 20% of government contractors have already adopted Business Development (BD), Capture, and Proposal efficiency solutions. This trend is expected to surge, with projections indicating that more than half of contractors will embrace these tools by the year's end. The time to act is now; adopting the right solution can be the difference between staying ahead and being left behind in this competitive marketplace.

Choosing the Right Solution

The marketplace for proposal efficiency solutions has exploded over the past year. While options abound, it is crucial to exercise caution when selecting a provider. Key attributes to consider include:

  • GovCon Experience: Ensure that the provider has a solid grounding in government contracting.
  • Financial Stability: Opt for a provider with strong financial backing.
  • Customer Success: Look for a track record of excellent customer success and support.
  • Growth Vision: Choose a provider with a clear vision for growth and an end-to-end approach.
  • Data Aggregation Partners: Strong partnerships in data aggregation can enhance the solution's effectiveness.
  • Integration Capabilities: Ensure required integrations are available or planned.
  • Client Success: Look for a provider with extensive success stories from clients similar to your organization.

Be wary of "Bay Area Pop-Ups" – while these solutions may appear flashy, they often lack the foundational GovCon experience and can fall short in delivering sustained customer success post-implementation.
