How to approach a prime

  1. Register in the prime's supplier portal: search the company name with "supplier diversity" or "small business program".
  2. Send your capability statement to their small business liaison, naming the contract or agency you can support.
  3. Time it: 3 to 12 months before a contract ends is when primes line up teammates for the rebid.
  4. Follow up when the rebid is posted, and watch subcontracting postings on the subcontracting board.
