  2. Size up a rival before you bid

Size up a rival before you bid

Combine a rival's contract history with its public signals to see its contract vehicles, issuing agencies and positioning before you decide to bid.

What you get

Pair a rival's federal contract history with its public signals to see what it holds, which agencies issued it and how it describes itself. This is for contractors in capture, pricing and bid decisions who need a quick read on a competitor before committing.

I am deciding whether to bid against Action Facilities Management (UEI HB9HZZ9R8AX4).Pull its federal contract history and its public signals. Tell me how many contractsand IDVs it holds, which agency issued the vehicles listed, what it says about itself,and what I should verify before treating any of it as fact.

What you get back

Captured from the live GovCon MCP on 29 October 2026. Excerpt. ACTION FACILITIES MANAGEMENT INC has 1494 contracts and 36 IDVs on record. Its public page says: "Action Facilities Management (AFM) is a nationally award-winning Woman-Owned Small Business skilled in providing a full spectrum of integrated facilities ..."

VehicleTypeAgencyDate listed

How to read it

  • 1494 contracts and 36 IDVs describe the broader history, while only a few vehicles are listed. All of those name Public Buildings Service, which tells you about this sample, not about every agency the company serves.
  • Counts are not revenue and not win rate. They show breadth of past work. Confirm what the date on each vehicle line means on the record before you plan around it, since one listed date is earlier than the capture date.
  • The public description is the company's own wording, not a confirmed fact. Treat "award-winning" and set-aside status as claims until you check the record.
  • Nothing here shows pricing, staffing, performance ratings or how the company will approach your bid. Check the official record before you rely on a figure.

Check it

Open the company's G2X page, ACTION FACILITIES MANAGEMENT INC, and the company's own pages from the answer, and compare. Confirm any socioeconomic status on the official record before you assume how a rival counts under a set-aside.

Variations

  • "Compare two rivals side by side: contracts, IDVs, vehicle agencies and public signals."
  • "Show this rival's awards in my NAICS only, for fiscal years 2024 to 2026."
  • "Which of this rival's vehicles end in the next 12 months, and what are its latest teaming signals?"
