Name recognition carries significant value, especially when proposing on a project with a new client. When a federal agency reviewer recognizes a name during the evaluation phase, the mind engages in psychological behavior known as prosocial, which instills a feeling of comfortability. In order to achieve this, contractors must ensure they have strong name recognition with potential clients. FCCS helps our clients instill name recognition through the following services:
An often over-looked aspect of federal contracting is the technical proposal. It is typically pushed to the night before, and hastily put together, increasing the risk of non-compliance and potentially presenting a contractor as unprofessional and unorganized. It is also a potentially costly part of pursuing federal opportunities. FCCS supports our clients through this process by providing the following services:
Cost estimating is a critical component to any construction firm. Profitability starts and stops with the estimate. While most contractors have an established estimator on staff, FCCS offers estimating support to augment in-house resources or full turn-key cost estimating, as well as the following services:
We have witnessed clients in the past leave considerable, and allowable, costs on the table when submitting and negotiating sole-sourced contracts. FCCS works with our clients, and attends negotiations with them, to ensure sole-sourced negotiated work is fair and reasonable to our clients.

FCCS services include:

The meat and potato of what a construction firms does, does not always mean a construction firm has the available in-house resources to assign or allocate to a project. Every construction project has milestones, key deadlines, deliverables, and in some instances, unforeseen or differing site conditions. Any one of those items, if not dealt with in a timely manner, can cause delays in progress, which can result in profit fade. Regardless of the deliverable or problem, FCCS can help clients kick projects off quickly, or help clients get projects back on track through the following services:
The end of every project is always the hardest part of the contract. Project personnel get reassigned and the progress stalls. Closeout documents get pushed when urgency to kick a new project off takes precedence. FCCS can serve as the key "closer" for our clients to ensure project closeout activities are completed and submitted to the client for final billing. Our services include:
