The Process

Work with us to enhance the health and readiness of those who serve our nation. We contract for a wide range of needs, from managed care support and dental services to cutting-edge information technology services and program management.

Government contracting is a detailed process that focuses on fairness of competition, transparency of opportunities, and government regulations. The acquisition lifecycle can be varied in terms of timing based on the complexity of the government requirement.
