   TeamingPro FAQ



TeamingPro connects federal contractors so they can build winning teams.

Small businesses find experienced partners to help them compete. Prime contractors find qualified teammates with the skills they need.

Everyone saves time by searching opportunities, matching with partners, and connecting instantly instead of wasting months on networking that goes nowhere.



Right away.

Once you create your profile, you can start searching opportunities and connecting with companies immediately.

On average, TeamingPro users connect with partners in just one day, compared to months of traditional networking.





SAM.gov shows you what's available. TeamingPro shows you what's available AND who you should talk to about it.

Plus you get AutoConnect to reach multiple partners instantly, search alerts for new opportunities, company research tools, and pipeline management, all designed to help you actually win work, not just find it.



Absolutely.

Small businesses use TeamingPro to find bigger, experienced companies (known as “primes”) to partner with.

Primes use it to find small businesses with specific skills they need.

Everyone wins with faster connections and better matches.





Not at all. TeamingPro is built for contractors at every level, including people brand new to federal work.

The platform is simple to use, and connecting with experienced partners is one of the best ways to learn.

You bring your skills and expertise; they bring federal experience. Just sign up, search for work that fits your skills, and start connecting.



TeamingPro doesn’t help with proposal writing. We help with what comes before that: finding opportunities worth pursuing, connecting with qualified partners, and building the team you’ll need when it’s time to submit a bid.

You can’t write a competitive proposal without a strong team, and that’s exactly what TeamingPro helps you build.



AutoConnect


AutoConnect is how registered users communicate with the TeamingPro network when sourcing partners or participants for their federal opportunities or programs.

We developed AutoConnect so our registered customers can take advantage of our growing network of companies and federal government agencies when sourcing teaming partners for jobs or opportunities, versus trying to build their own.

This immediately broadens the scope of potential partners for all companies in the TeamingPro network.







Reach out to the market for any job or opportunity and expand your teaming options. Narrow your search down to the segments of the market that fit your requirements. AutoConnect will reach out to all matching companies and responding companies will click into your page to show interest in your job or opportunity. This will give you more small business and subcontracting options per job. Quickly vet each company before any next steps making building your subcontractor and small busienss networks lighting fast.
Responding companies will populate your AutoConnect dashboard. From here, you can vet each company through their past performance, government contracts and more before any next steps are taken.



Any company or government agency that has a need to teammates or partners would use AutoConnect.

Here are some use cases:


  • A small business wants to find teammates for an opportunity and sends an AutoConnect to matching companies in the network and interested companies come to them.

  • A prime contractor wants to increase their small business or subcontractor options for an opportunity or re-compete contract and strengthen their bid or proposal to get a competitive edge.

  • A prime contractor wants to save time and money building their small business or subcontractor network.

  • A prime contractor has an urgent need to fill a current job or requirement.

  • A government agency wants to make sure they meet the rule of two.

  • Other government entities want to increase their small business participation for any current job or new opportunity.



Prime contractors and government agencies are normally limited to the companies and small businesses they happen to have in their supplier portals or have a relationship with through manual networking.

The argument here is, companies only want to work with other companies they know and trust.

This will never change.

AutoConnect is a way to get to that relationship stage with more qualified companies faster, by providing the ability to in-app message matching companies. This saves your company time and money while providing a competitive advantage when sourcing your small business partners.

Once companies start expressing interest in your AutoConnect notification, you can start your vetting process. This saves time by only vetting companies that are interested.




AutoConnect is an invitation system and handles the communications between in-network companies on the platform.

Companies who need partners on contracts or opportunties can use AutoConnect to talk to the right set of in-netwprk companies for the work they are going after.




Small Businesses, prime contractors and federal agencies set up an AutoConnect for their job or opportunity and our system matches companies to their requirements. The companies in our network are activly sourced and messaged about the job or opportunity and can decide if they're interested.
