What we bring on day one.
A reference page a prime can scan in two minutes to confirm Techtiz can plug into the bid stack.
What a prime compliance officer is looking for.
Specific framework claims with status, scope, and target dates. We don't list controls we can't substantiate. Where a framework is in-progress, the target is on the page.

Honest about the lane.
Trust comes from knowing where the work ends. These six categories belong to the prime, to a specialist sub, to dedicated capture-consulting firms, or to nobody at all.
Fieldwork
Site visits, in-person stakeholder facilitation, on-site meeting moderation. We support remotely; the prime owns the physical room.
Legal drafting
Legal counsel for statutory interpretation must come from the prime or a separate sub. We follow the legal opinion; we don't issue it.
Prime contractor role
We don't bid against our partners. Subcontract-only. Direct-to-agency engagements are out of scope.
Direct-to-agency engagements
Every engagement routes through a U.S. prime under a master subcontract. NDAs and IP through prime templates.
Off-the-shelf product replacement
We don't compete with Tyler, Granicus, CivicPlus, OpenGov, GovPilot or other GovTech product companies. When a prime needs a product, we recommend the right one. We're the subcontractor that ships the custom piece the off-the-shelf platform doesn't cover.
Procurement intelligence / capture-consulting analyst services
We do not sell access to public RFPs, anonymized tenders, or procurement subscription data. That lane is operated by Deltek GovWin, Bloomberg Government, and dedicated U.S. capture-consulting firms with analyst teams and regulatory structures. We are a technical implementation subcontractor that supports primes inside structured engagements.
Every engagement begins with a structured relationship.
NDA on first substantive contact. No public materials exchanged before paperwork is signed. We do not solicit RFPs from the open market or analyze RFPs we have not been formally engaged on.
Introduction
Email or LinkedIn from a capture manager, BD lead, or program manager at a U.S. prime. Within one business day, a Techtiz partner manager replies with a mutual NDA template and a calendar slot.
Day 1 to 5Capability conversation under NDA
30 to 60 minute call. The prime describes the engagement type, the procurement vehicle, and any sensitive context. We describe which Backbone capabilities apply, the team shape, and the contracting structure.
Week 1 to 2Scoped subcontract conversation
If the engagement fits, we deliver a scoped statement of work, teaming letter draft, and named-resume options. Your contracts team takes it from there. Subcontract paperwork closes within 7 to 14 days for most vehicles.
Week 2 to 4Considering a teaming arrangement?
Start an NDA conversation. Engagement structure proposed within 5 business days of NDA.
SLED Backbone Capabilities
Answers about what Techtiz can plug into on day one of a pursuit or delivery effort.
What technical domains does the SLED backbone cover?
Core competencies include GIS and spatial systems, AI and intelligence (LLM/RAG, agents, ML pipelines), workflow automation, statutory document production, grant and compliance reporting, and platform modernization, each scoped to your subcontract SOW.
Can Techtiz support proposal and orals work pre-award?
Yes, under an executed teaming letter and NDA: technical volumes, compliance matrices, demonstrable prototypes, and past-performance packaging aligned to your capture strategy, not as a separate prime offer.
Which compliance frameworks does delivery align to?
Engagements are wrapped to the frameworks your flow-down requires, commonly NIST SP 800-171, SOC 2, StateRAMP, CJIS, Section 508/VPAT, CMMC, HIPAA, and IRS Pub 1075. Confirm certification versus roadmap status per framework before external claims.
How does insurance and registration route through the prime?
Insurance and liability flow through your master agreement. NAICS 541511 and 541512 and state NIGP 918-46 / 918-00 are listed on our capability materials for subcontract paperwork.
What work is explicitly out of scope?
We do not prime contracts, face agencies, or compete with partners. We do not take ownership of the agency relationship or publish deliverables under the Techtiz brand on active government work.
