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