Government contracting, end to end.
Layered Intel builds and runs the federal growth function for companies that need one: opportunity identification, capture, proposal, and submission. We bring the process, the tooling, and the practitioners, and we operate them alongside your team.
We are your growth department.
Whether you are entering the federal market for the first time or you have a pipeline and no engine to work it, we install the process and run it with you. Our principals have run growth organizations at federal integrators, sat on the government side of the table, and personally captured and won work across DoD, DHS, and the Intelligence Community.
Business development and pipeline
Market and customer targeting, opportunity identification and qualification, pipeline build and maintenance in GovWin, BGOV, SAM.gov, FPDS, C2P, and Federal Compass.
Capture management
Shipley, KSI, and Lohfeld-aligned capture planning, customer call plans, pre-RFP shaping, competitive and Black Hat analysis, price-to-win, win themes and discriminators.
Proposal management and production
Compliance matrices against Sections L, M, C, and J, outline and storyboard development, writing and SME orchestration, color team facilitation, production and submission.
Teaming, vehicles, and compliance
Prime and subcontractor outreach, teaming agreements and flowdowns, OCI screening, and GWAC, IDIQ, BPA, and GSA MAS positioning.
We install the process, not just the labor.
Our Managing Member authored the Bid and Proposal Guidebook still in use at a federal engineering firm. We tailor and install that same governance in your company: phases, gates, color teams, RACI, templates, and a searchable content library. Every review has entry criteria, a scoring sheet, and a named output, so a review produces action items instead of opinions.
Phase and gate discipline
- Gate 1 Qualify: 18 to 24 months pre-RFP
- Gate 2 Capture: 12 to 18 months pre-RFP
- Gate 3 Proposal: no later than one week after draft RFP
- Gate 4 Submit: post-Red, pre-Gold
- Submittal, debrief, and closeout
Color teams we run
- Black Hat, Blue
- Pink, Lime, Red
- Green, Gold
- White Glove
The same team that runs your capture writes your software.
We build the tools we wished existed, then sell them to contractors who have the same problem. A subject-matter expert describes the problem on a video call; we return working software in days.
