Our Story

Hi! I’m Jeff Halsted, a government contracting expert and the president of CompetitionSmart. Thanks for stopping by.

I know government contracts because for 20 years I was one of the professionals who awarded them. In my career as a contracting officer, I ran more than 200 technical evaluation panels and procured billions of dollars in services. After reading a few thousand proposals, I realized that nearly every single one of them made the same points in the same ways. I knew that some companies were more deserving of contracts than others, but you wouldn’t know it from reading their proposals. There had to be a better way.

So I took my experience to the private sector, where I developed an incredibly effective approach to capture, pricing, and proposal-writing. After decades of studying bids from all comers and learning what wins and what doesn’t, I founded CompetitionSmart. Now I get to use my insider experience to help exceptional businesses win contracts with the federal government.

In fact, 9 out of every 10 of my clients win the contracts they bid on.

To learn more about how my expertise as a government contracting expert can help your company, please contact me at info@competitionsmart.com. I look forward to working with you.
