Episode notes
An awarded federal contract does not always mean the opportunity is over.
In this episode, John E. Cornish III and Maya Chen explain how small businesses can use award intelligence to identify prime contractors, understand where execution needs may emerge, and determine where their capabilities could credibly fit.
The lesson: follow the money, follow the mission, and follow the companies already trusted to execute.
