OUR WHY: The small business community is greatly disadvantaged in the government contracting market. 99.7% of all US companies are defined as small sized by the SBA. Yet, only 22% of federal contracting dollars are awarded to these organizations. The disparities for women, minorities, veterans, and other such business owners are enormous. Our goal is to be an agent of change by helping companies to get their fair share of the opportunities in the government market.

Government Contractors Association, Inc. (GCA) is a national trade association comprised of commercial contractors (small & large companies) and government agencies (federal agencies, state agencies, local agencies, gov't staff, universities, non-profits, etc.).

VISION: To create access.  Our Vision is to open doors for commercial companies into the government market and to support government agencies in accessing qualified contractors.

MISSION: To educate, facilitate and advocate for our membership base by becoming the premier government contracting association with these three pillars:

Educate: We are a training institution with educational curriculum, resources and certification training.  We provide the following resources:

• Certified Capture Manager (CCM™):  Create industry standards by training certified professionals.
• Seminars & Training: Courses to equip our members.
• E-Learning and Webinars: Online and distance learning tools.

Facilitate: We will foster networking groups, alliance groups, teaming opportunities, joint venture formations, mentor protégé relationships, and contracting relationships between the private and public sectors.  We will do this through social media, monthly meetings, annual conferences and networking functions.

Advocate: We will promote, inform and be a voice for supportive legislations to enhance and open doors for greater opportunities, transparencies, and accountability for our members.

The GovEdge, Inc.. was founded in 2008 by Victoria Menifee. Since then, we have won over $212 million in funded contracts for our students, clients and ourselves. We offer government courses, government workshops, AI-enabled Business Development (BD), capture management, and proposal consulting services that helps Government Contractors win business and grow.

​

We deeply care about our staff, students, clients and our community and we believe in the value that Government contractors deliver in support and profit for their small businesses. Most bids we work on result in contracts with a tremendous impact on all government industries. This awareness fuels our team’s passion for crafting superior on-line courses, workshops and consulting with the goal of simplifying the entire government process for small business owners.

​

We have achieved success working with our clients by applying the following core values:

1. We Engage With Content

The GovEdge consultants learn what our clients do and dive into the details. Unlike consultants who stay on the surface merely “managing the process,” our consultants take ownership of the content to help develop the best solution possible for a specific proposal.

2. We Obsess About The Details

Winning Federal Government contracts requires precise responses to complicated technical requirements through compelling and compliant narrative and pricing. Mistakes are unforgiving. They could potentially disqualify the entire bid, costing jobs and impacting entire companies’ livelihoods. Our consultants don’t just triple-check. They quadruple-check everything because they understand and care about the impacts.

3. We Learn Continuously & Strive for Professional Excellence

Government Contractors are continuously seeking a competitive edge. They engage The GovEdge’s consultants, trusting us with their most important pursuits. Our consultants are both teachers and students of the Government business development profession. It’s easy to fall behind and think in terms of “yesterday” when trying to solve today’s problems. Our consultants are constantly reading, attending webinars and conferences, taking Crack the Govcode Academy and other classes, and shadowing other experienced colleagues to learn and provide more value for our clients.

4. We Share & Carry the Load

Winning proposals is a team sport. It requires dedication, long hours, and sometimes pushing past the point of exhaustion to get outstanding work done before the deadline. The GovEdge’s consultants carry the load together, stepping up when our colleagues on the client or consultant side may need help. We take responsibility and work proactively to fix what needs fixing, even if it’s not in our job description.

5. We Do Whatever it Takes

Competing and winning at the highest levels of competition in Government contracting is mentally and physically tough. The GovEdge consultants are dedicated to helping our clients succeed. We operate in high-stress environments, respond to challenging Government requirements, and sometimes work 12-hour days 7 days a week. OST is in the business of winning proposals instead of merely completing them.

We have developed winning processes that are scalable from multi-billion-dollar bids down to bids under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. We will bring the rigor of process and quality control that help win large, unrestricted competitions to raise Pwin for any size bid.

What Is SAM.gov?

SAM.gov (System for Award Management) is the official U.S. government website where businesses, organizations, and individuals register to do business with the federal government. Managed by the General Services Administration (GSA), SAM.gov consolidates various procurement systems into a single platform, making it the central hub for federal contract opportunities, entity registration, certifications, and compliance data.

Registration in SAM.gov is required for any entity seeking to bid on or be awarded federal contracts, receive federal grants, or participate in other federal assistance programs. Once registered, businesses are issued a Unique Entity ID (UEI), which replaces the older DUNS number system and becomes a key identifier in all federal transactions.

SAM.gov also serves as the primary source of public data regarding contract awards, solicitations, past performance, and contractor eligibility, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the procurement process.

Why CCGrowth, LLC Is Registered in SAM.gov

CCGrowth, LLC is actively registered in SAM.gov to formally participate in the federal marketplace as a qualified and compliant vendor. Our registration reflects our readiness to fulfill contracts issued by government agencies across a variety of sectors.

• Eligibility to bid on and receive federal contract awards.
• Compliance with applicable federal acquisition regulations (FAR/DFARS).
• Transparency and validation of business identity and ownership.
• Commitment to ethical, secure, and professional conduct in all dealings with government entities.

Our active SAM.gov registration ensures that agencies can trust our capabilities and credentials. It also enables us to engage subcontractors, form teaming agreements, and access government-wide contracting vehicles.

Whether we are coordinating sourcing and logistics for a procurement, assembling a subcontractor team, or responding to a Request for Quote (RFQ), our SAM.gov registration is a foundational element that confirms our legitimacy, compliance, and capacity to deliver.
