Capability Statement
A Capability Statement is a business document or record of your individual and organizational competencies, achievements, associations, and accreditations. Government contracting has developed into a very competitive marketplace. Entrepreneurs and business firms, of all sizes, have been able to successfully begin selling their products and services to the government agencies at local, state, and federal levels. With the marketplace being as competitive as it is today, Government Contractors are charged with ensuring that they find the most responsive and responsible firms to provide the product and/or services needed. Developing your capability statement will allow your firm to stand out from the crowd while addressing all your firm core competencies and achievements.
