Early-Signal Intelligence Sprint. See the market before the solicitation.
A 30-day, practitioner-led research and advisory engagement focused on one agency, customer set, capability area, recompete landscape, budget area, acquisition trend, or strategic market. You get early indicators, opportunity hypotheses, and an executive briefing that turns signal into action.
Delivered by a senior BD practitioner using the BD Signal™ methodology, structured analysis, and publicly available information. This is a consulting service — not a software product.
One sprint, one focus. So the signal is loud.
Seven concrete deliverables. Zero speculation.
Relevant early market indicators
Signals shaping the focus area over the next 6–18 months — before they show up in solicitations.
Agency & program movement
Leadership changes, reorganizations, strategy shifts, and program direction relevant to your positioning.
Funding & policy developments
Budget, appropriations, and policy changes that influence demand and buying behavior.
Incumbent & recompete observations
Incumbents, expirations, protest history, and recompete posture on relevant vehicles and programs.
Opportunity hypotheses
Named opportunity hypotheses with rationale, timing, and evidence trail — ready for leadership review.
Customer & partner actions
Recommended customer engagement moves and teaming actions to take now, in 30 days, and in 90 days.
Executive briefing
A working session that turns findings into decisions — with a written brief leadership can circulate.
Fixed fee. Scoped to your focus area.
Three sprint tiers based on scope depth. Every sprint delivers the full research package and executive briefing on the same 30-day timeline.
One narrow focus area · single briefing
One agency, one capability, or one recompete window.
One focus area · deeper analysis · executive briefing
Standard scope with expanded opportunity hypotheses and action recommendations.
Broader scope · multiple stakeholders
Additional interviews and a broader focus (e.g., agency + adjacent programs).
