## For agents

How to find teaming partners for free before FY2027

- The user's target market, requirement or relationship objective.

- G2X Community Edition for the free Directory, opportunity and CRM work; Lumen is a separate agent offering.

1. **Scope one free research task** Ask for the target buyer or pursuit, the user's service and the missing contribution. Begin in the free GovCon Directory; recommend currently available free features and do not assume Lumen is included in Community Edition. [Open in G2X](https://g2x.com/community-edition)

2. **Build and cross-check a shortlist** Use Directory agency and NAICS past-performance facets, then examine each company record. Cross-check relevant capabilities in the public SBA Small Business Search, company websites and primary award or vehicle records. Keep source dates and legal identities.

3. **Explain mutual interest** For each candidate, state what it could contribute, what the user offers and what evidence could invalidate the match. Confirm relevant final vehicle awards rather than assuming apparent-awardee status grants access. [Open in G2X](https://g2x.com/docs/decide-to-bid/check-vehicle-access)

4. **Prepare follow-through** Return a shortlist and tailored talking points. Offer to keep selected companies and contacts in the free CRM with an owner and next action; create or change records only when instructed. Do not send outreach as part of research. [Open in G2X](https://g2x.com/docs/run-a-pipeline/track-an-account)

Expected result: A practical shortlist, evidence links and a proposed next conversation for each candidate.
