Consulting Solutions: Thriving in the Federal Government Industry

Consulting Solutions Inc has spent the past 20 years serving the Federal Government. Consulting Solutions got its start as an 8(a) company in the DIA Mentor-Protégé program as a Protégé business delivering top notch IT & Mission Services. The company graduated from both the 8(a) program and the DIA Mentor-Protégé program, demonstrating an ability to bid and execute on large scale programs. Throughout the company's lifespan, Consulting Solutions had endured its fair share of government turbulence and federal budget fluctuations to remain a player in the federal marketplace. In 2018, following 20 years of sustained excellence, Consulting Solutions underwent an acquisition and sold to a new ownership group. Planning on continuing the legacy of unmatched customer delivery, the new Executive Directors are combining highly skilled personnel with state-of-the art commercial technology, focusing on providing innovative solutions to support the federal government for another 20 years. This case explores the various federal government agency nuances, rigid employee vetting processes, and stringent guidelines for competing and thriving in the federal government industry.
