Condition 01On file
Writing one capability statement eats six to eight hours, so I only bid the contracts I am already confident about

Section 01 — Conditions
The work this replaces
Three things that are true of small-business federal business development as it runs today. Nothing here is a feature list — it is the reason the rest of this page exists.
Cross-reference
Every condition on file here is one of two problems — finding the right notice, or pricing it once you have. Both are answered out of the same free public record.
See § 02 — Price intelligenceCondition 02On file
I rewrite the same past performance section for every solicitation because each agency wants it framed differently
Condition 03On file
My last three no-bids were purely calendar decisions — good fits I could not staff a proposal for in time
Section 02 — Price intelligence
What the government actually paid for comparable work
Price-to-win analysis is a week of manual FPDS digging, so most small operators skip it and price off last year’s number. Every opportunity GovRadar matches arrives with its comparable award history already attached — as a spec table and a single band rule, never a chart.
Basis of comparison
- Source
- FPDS.gov — the federal award record. Free, public, and the same file your competitors read.
- Matched on
- Your NAICS code, the awarding agency, and your business size band.
- Reported as
- A spec table and one band rule. Never a chart, never a projection.
- When thin
- Too few comparable awards is a filed state, stated in writing rather than an empty box.

Figures shown are an illustrative record. Your report is built from the awards that actually match your NAICS, agency and size band — and where too few comparable awards exist, the panel says so in writing rather than showing you an empty box.
Why this is the difference
Every draft is assembled from your own contract history and the solicitation's stated evaluation criteria — not a template with your name pasted in.
Section 03 — Matching
Five solicitations worth reading, ranked
Ten thousand notices post daily. Overnight, every new SAM.gov posting is filtered against your profile and the shortlist is scored, so what reaches you is a register you can read in a coffee rather than an inbox you archive unopened.
- Fit score
- A number and the reasoning behind it, written out. Not a black box.
- Response deadline
- A filing date with a live countdown, coloured by how close the window is to closing.
- Set-aside check
- The designation on the notice, read against the certifications you actually hold.
- Winning-bid band
- The FPDS comparable award history from Section 02, attached to every single match.
Section 04 — Drafting
The six-hour writing job, reduced to an edit
Tell GovRadar your past performance once. Every matched opportunity can then produce a capability statement drafted from your own contract history and the solicitation’s stated evaluation criteria — technical approach, references, compliance matrix — as editable Markdown you download and finish yourself.
It is not a template with your company name pasted into it. The bids you skip are almost never the ones you would have lost; they are the ones you ran out of calendar to write.
The promise
The six-hour writing job becomes a fifteen-minute edit.
Section 05 — Procedure
Three steps, no account, about five minutes
Filing time — approx. 5 min
01
File three fields
Primary NAICS code, business size band, set-aside status. That is the whole form. No email address, no password, no card.
02
We pull the record
Live SAM.gov solicitations are matched against your profile and scored, then each one is joined to its comparable FPDS award history.
03
The report is issued
Five matches, each with a fit score, a filing deadline and a winning-bid band — at a URL you can forward to a partner or a counselor.

Section 06 — Questions on the record
The four things people ask before they run one
- Do I have to create an account?
- No. The free audit takes three fields and issues the report to its own URL. There is no signup gate in front of the value, and the report stays readable without a session so you can send it to somebody else.
- Where does the data come from?
- SAM.gov for live solicitations, FPDS for historical award records, USASpending for context. All three are free, public federal sources. We do not have access to anything you could not eventually dig out yourself — we stop you having to.
- Does this replace SAM.gov?
- No, and it does not try to. SAM.gov stays your system of record. GovRadar sits beside it, next to the email alerts and the spreadsheet, and does the reading.
- What does it cost after the free audit?
- From $99 a month. Every tier carries the same 90-day money-back guarantee: a full refund if no matched opportunity results in a submitted bid.
And when the record is thin, it says so
Insufficient historical data — 2 comparable awards sampled
An absent price band is still a filed state. You will never be shown an empty chart or a confident number we do not have the awards to support.
Section 07 — Action
The bids you skip are almost never the ones you would have lost. They are the ones you ran out of time to write.
The six-hour writing job becomes a fifteen-minute edit. Run the audit on your primary NAICS code and see what is currently on the street for it. If nothing in the report is worth your time, you have spent five minutes and told us nothing about yourself.
