The contract went to someone else. Your piece of it is still open.

Most federal IT work is won by primes who then bring in specialists for the parts they can't staff. DC ScoutPro finds the awards in your specialty, tells you who holds them and how to reach them, and drafts the email asking for the work.

Three ways into federal work, from one list

You don't need to win a prime contract to get paid on one. You need to know who holds the work, when it ends, and what to say.

Subcontract to a prime

We pull every active award in your NAICS codes, keep the ones whose scope matches what you do, and draft a short email to each prime that names their contract and offers your piece.

Subcontracting outreach

Bid on what you can win

New SAM.gov notices are ranked against your capabilities, set-asides and deadlines. Each one says why it ranked. The $100M programs stay out of your way.

Opportunity tracking

Get in before the recompete

Every award has an end date. We flag the ones ending in the next few months so you can approach the incumbent, or a challenger, before the new notice posts.

Recompete timing

What a week looks like

  1. Monday: new targets

    Awards from the past week in your specialty, scored for fit, with the prime's website, location and point of contact from their SAM registration.

  2. Drafts ready to send

    One email per target, written around their specific contract and your listed capabilities. You edit and send from your own inbox.

  3. Follow-ups don't slip

    Drafts you haven't sent come back the next week, along with targets whose contracts are about to end.

We use it to find our own work

DC ScoutPro is the system Senior Insight, Inc. built to find federal health IT work for itself. Every Monday it produces our own list of primes to contact and the emails we send them.

AI writes the summaries and the drafts. It never sets the rankings and never makes up a contact. Here's exactly where it's used.
