Competitive & Spending IntelligenceConfigured for Your Markets
Know your competition. We configure market intelligence dashboards that track competitors, spending patterns, and opportunities in your target markets.
What is Government Contract Market Intelligence?
Government contract market intelligence is automated competitive research using federal spending data. We configure dashboards that track competitor wins, analyze USASpending.gov data, identify recompete opportunities, and monitor agency spending patterns—all focused on your NAICS codes and target agencies. This intelligence informs go/no-go decisions and strategic capture planning.
Data Transparency
Award data is batch-updated from public sources (daily to weekly). This is excellent for market research, trend analysis, and strategic planning. For time-sensitive contract decisions, always verify with authoritative sources like SAM.gov or agency procurement offices.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is government contract market intelligence?
Government contract market intelligence is competitive research using federal spending data. It includes tracking competitor wins from USASpending.gov, analyzing agency spending patterns, identifying recompete opportunities, and monitoring pricing trends—all to inform strategic capture decisions.
What data sources do you use for government contract intelligence?
We aggregate award data from USASpending.gov, FPDS, SAM.gov entity data, and other public sources. This includes contract awards, spending by agency/NAICS, competitor wins, incumbent information, and historical pricing data where available.
How does automated competitor tracking work for government contracts?
We configure competitor watchlists that automatically alert you when tracked companies win contracts, appear on solicitations, or register for set-asides. You can track by company name, DUNS/UEI, or contract vehicle. Get notifications via email, Slack, or your CRM.
Can you identify government contract recompetes before they post?
Yes. We build recompete calendars by analyzing contract end dates, option periods, and historical recompete patterns. You'll know which contracts are coming up for recompete and who the incumbents are—giving you time to position before the solicitation posts.
What pricing intelligence is available for government contracts?
We surface historical award values for similar contracts to help you understand market rates. For GSA Schedule holders, we can track competitor GSA pricing. Note: actual bid pricing is rarely public, but award values provide useful benchmarks.
How does market intelligence improve government contract capture?
Market intelligence informs go/no-go decisions by showing incumbent advantages, competitor win rates, and agency spending patterns. Teams use it to identify recompetes before they post, research teaming partners, and price proposals competitively.
How current is USASpending and FPDS award data?
Award data is batch-updated from public sources (daily to weekly depending on the source). This is excellent for market research, pricing analysis, and competitor tracking. For time-sensitive contract decisions, always verify with SAM.gov or agency procurement offices.
