Senior Acquisition Expertise. Available When You Need It.
PPS gives government contractors flexible access to experienced acquisition, proposal, and program-management expertise—without adding another full-time executive.
Use PPS for focused questions, independent reviews, defined projects, or recurring fractional advisory support.

“Will has been such a great resource to navigate the GovCon world. Our company went from novice to knowledgeable on so many different opportunities and resources... GovCon is a complex world and without an expert in the space like Will on our side, things would be much harder and overwhelming.”

Practical questions. Experienced perspective.
A simple model by design.
Can PPS support us for only a few hours?
Yes. Focused consultation is a core part of the PPS model.
Can PPS work as a subcontractor?
Yes. PPS is available for defined-scope professional-services agreements and fractional advisory support to prime and subcontract teams.
Can PPS review an RFP or proposal?
Yes. Independent solicitation, compliance, strategy, red-team, and submission-readiness reviews are core services.
Can PPS represent us in meetings with a federal agency?
No. PPS provides internal advisory support and does not represent clients before federal agencies or advocate for procurement outcomes before government decision-makers.
Built to plug into existing teams.
PPS supports growing small businesses, established contractors, primes, and executive/capture teams that need targeted senior expertise.
Growing Small Businesses
Add experienced acquisition and proposal perspective before you're ready for another executive hire.
Established Government Contractors
Use PPS for surge support, independent reviews, or specialized acquisition and program-management perspective.
Prime Contractors
Engage PPS through defined-scope subcontract support for proposal, acquisition, PMO, or advisory requirements.
Commercial Firms Entering GovCon
Build internal understanding of acquisition requirements, pursuit decisions, proposals, and teaming options.
Expertise—not government access.
PPS engagements are structured to maintain a clear separation between private advisory services and government responsibilities. Potential engagements are screened for applicable ethics, conflict-of-interest, outside-employment, procurement-integrity, and recusal requirements before work begins.
- PPS does not represent clients before federal agencies.
- PPS does not advocate for procurement outcomes before government decision-makers.
- PPS does not use nonpublic government information in client work.
- PPS does not accept compensation contingent upon the award of a federal contract.
- Outside business activities are conducted subject to applicable ethics requirements, with ethics counsel consulted as appropriate.
