Validated Workflow

The "Federal Contract Compliance Window"

Every time a mid-to-large GC wins a federal construction contract over $1.5M, the FAR 52.219-9 clause activates automatically. That means a legally required Individual Subcontract Plan — with written goals and quarterly SAM.gov reporting for small, women-owned, disadvantaged, HUBZone, and veteran-owned subs. The window to catch them is the first 30 to 90 days after the award is signed.

1
Monitor USAspending.gov FPDS for new federal construction awards Filter: NAICS 236 / 237, award value >$1.5M, large business status. Updated continuously — new awards appear within days of signing.
2
Flag contracts with Individual Subcontract Plan requirements (FAR 52.219-9) Large businesses on construction contracts over $1.5M are legally required to file quarterly subcontractor diversity reports to SAM.gov. This is the trigger — not a soft buying signal, a statutory obligation.
3
Enrich awardee with VP Operations / Director of Subcontracting contact Cross-reference company size, ENR ranking, and LinkedIn to identify the right compliance or operations decision-maker at the GC.
4
Deliver lead card — company, project, compliance requirement, contact, proof link Outreach is grounded in a specific named federal project. The GC can verify the award in 30 seconds. The framing is market intelligence, not a cold pitch.
