Skyway Acquisition

Capability Statement

We bring context to both sides of federal government contracting through consulting, training, and mentoring from former Contracting Officers.

Who we are

Skyway is a diverse team of experienced former Contracting Officers who are passionate about helping people navigate GovCon. Government acquisition professionals rely on Skyway to bring context to GovCon to accelerate their acquisitions, level up their GovCon skills, and make them more confident acquisition professionals.

What we do

The Skyway team has Contracting Officer experience with every facet of federal acquisition. We harness that experience to mentor, coach, and advise our government clients, and we have helped hundreds of organizations navigate government contracts from the industry side. Balanced insight from both sides of GovCon ensures the best acquisition outcomes.

Why Skyway

Differentiators

1

Experience

Mentorship and advice based on experience, not theory. Our team averages 21 years as Contracting Officers across different agencies and commands, plus an average of 6 years training and advising industry. We bridge the context gap because we understand both sides.

2

Breadth of expertise

Direct experience across nearly all facets of GovCon: pre-award, post-award, products, services, construction, R&D (including SBIR), and contingency contracting. If a Contracting Officer does it, someone on our team has done it.

3

Current and relevant

We assess, analyze, and apply the FAR every day, culminating in This Week in Government Contracting and The Contracting Officer Podcast.

4

Results

Better market research, more effective solicitations, better source selections, cleaner awards, and more balanced interactions with contractors after award.
