Getting Started with fedbidops

What fedbidops does, how to set up your first session, and the fastest path to a ranked list of bids that actually fit your company.

The short answer

fedbidops pulls the federal opportunity feed from SAM.gov and scores every notice against your company. Set your capability profile and add your NAICS codes on day one — the feed re-scores overnight and you wake up to a ranked list of bids that actually fit what you do.

What the product does

fedbidops is a scored feed plus a workspace. The feed ranks every relevant SAM.gov notice for your company with a match score and a PURSUE / REVIEW / PASS verdict. The workspace is where you shred the RFP, evaluate the bid, build a compliance matrix, run capture, and — on Pro — price it, size up the competition, and draft sections.

Your first session

  1. Open Profile and write your Capability Profile — what you do, past-performance themes, differentiators, dealbreakers.
  2. Open NAICS and add every code you can credibly claim work under.
  3. Wait one overnight cycle. Scoring runs on a schedule so the first ranked feed lands the next morning.
  4. Open the dashboard, sort by score, and open the first PURSUE into its workspace.

The aha moment

Most operators find it in week one: a bid they would have scrolled past on SAM.gov shows up ranked first because the profile caught a match a keyword search would never surface. That is the whole point — the feed does the reading so you can spend time on the two or three that matter.

Where to go next

  • Setting Up Your Capability Profile — the single biggest lever on score quality.
  • Adding Your NAICS Codes — controls which lanes the feed pulls for you.
  • How Match Scoring Works — what the score and verdict actually mean.
