Why this exists
Most first-time bidders waste a year before they win anything.
It's not because they're bad at the work. It's usually one of three things.
They never finish SAM.gov
Registration is genuinely confusing: the UEI process, the notarized-letter requirement, the wait times nobody warns you about. About half of first-time registrants give up partway through. Folder 01 is a 32-page annotated walkthrough with a screenshot of every screen.
They show up at the RFP and wonder why they lose
By the time an RFP posts publicly, the incumbent already knows the agency and the contracting officer already knows the incumbent. Everyone else is bidding cold. The Sources Sought playbook shows you how to start that relationship 12 to 18 months earlier.
They price by feel and hope for the best
Federal pricing is its own discipline: wrap rates, indirect costs, G&A, price-to-win banding. Guessing low does not always win. Sometimes it signals you don't understand the work. Folder 08 has the formulas.
The qualification gap
First-time bidders win about 3% of what they chase.
That's not a motivation problem. It's a preparation problem. Most new entrants show up at solicitations they were never going to win, without the relationships or positioning experienced firms built 12 months before the RFP posted.
The firms with 30% win rates don't bid more. They bid less, on the right opportunities, after doing the capture work. The Bid/No-Bid toolkit and the Sources Sought playbook are the two pieces that change that fastest.

What customers say
People who've used it.
Real quotes. We didn't write them.
“Used the Sources Sought template on a $1.4M HHS notice four days after I bought the kit. Won the spot on the awarded IDIQ.”
Marcus T.
Founder, regional IT services firm
“The SAM.gov walkthrough alone saved me three weeks. I had restarted my registration twice before.”
Jenna R.
8(a) construction subcontractor
“Honestly skeptical of $70 'kit' offers, but the PWin calculator made us drop two bids that would've cost us $40k to chase.”
David K.
SDVOSB cybersecurity
“The internal best-practice library is gold. This is the stuff our last consultant charged us $4k for.”
Andrea L.
WOSB facilities services
7-day refund, no questions
Open everything. Try the templates. If by day seven you don't think the Federal Launch Kit saved you weeks of research and at least one bad bid, reply to the receipt email and we'll refund the $70. No form, no survey, no runaround.
Questions
The stuff people ask before buying.
Yes. You pay $70 once and the folder is yours forever. Every template, calculator, and playbook we add later shows up in the same folder at no extra cost. The list price goes up as the library grows. What you lock in today, you keep.
Then skip Folder 01 and start with the Sources Sought playbook and the Bid/No-Bid toolkit. Most people tell us those two changed how they pick what to bid on more than anything else in the kit.
Small businesses going after their first handful of federal contracts. Veteran-owned, 8(a), WOSB, HUBZone, or just a small shop that knows the work but not the paperwork. If you've already won a dozen federal contracts, you probably have most of this already.
No. The kit stands on its own. CapturePilot is the software that finds and scores the opportunities you'll use these templates on, and there's a free tier if you want to try it. But the kit works whether you ever sign up or not.
Reply to your receipt within 7 days and we refund the $70. No form, no survey, no runaround. You keep whatever you already downloaded.
You've read enough. It either fits your situation or it doesn't.
