BD as a Service

Federal growth, fully managed.

Senior business development, capture and proposal leadership for federal contractors, on a monthly retainer. You get the discipline large primes keep in-house without adding headcount.

How it works

From pipeline to win

Syntra plugs into your team and runs the full BD lifecycle with Shipley-certified rigor, from first look at an opportunity through final proposal submission.

01

Targeting

Build and qualify a pipeline that fits your past performance, vehicles and growth goals, with clear bid/no-bid calls.

02

Engagement

Cultivate government relationships and teaming partners early, so you shape requirements instead of reacting to them.

03

Capture

Develop win themes, competitive positioning and a capture plan your whole team can execute against.

04

Proposal

Manage color team reviews and proposal teams to deliver compliant, compelling submissions that score.
