What Federal Business Development Looks Like When It Works
Federal business development is the ongoing work of choosing target agencies, building relationships with program offices and primes, tracking forecasts and filling a pipeline with opportunities you can realistically win. Agencies plan 18 to 24 months ahead, so BD done this quarter shows up as revenue two years from now.
BD is where every other service starts. Qualified opportunities move into capture, daily SAM.gov screening can sit with a GovCon virtual assistant, and your website and capability statement back up every first conversation.
