A5N Prime is an industry-agnostic federal contract management firm. The same disciplined model — opportunity capture, cost build, technical approach, execution, and invoicing — applies to every line of business the federal government puts out for bid.
Most small business primes pick a vertical and stay in it. A5N Prime is built differently. Our principals are business owners and logistics/management professionals first, tradespeople second — which means the work product we sell is contract execution, not a specific craft. When we look at a SAM.gov solicitation, the questions are always the same: what labor does this require, what materials does this require, what's the right technical approach, what's our cost, and what's our bid. The answers change by industry; the process doesn't.
Every A5N Prime contract — regardless of industry — moves through the same five-step model. We are good at this process. That is the product.
We scan SAM.gov, agency forecasts, and partner channels for solicitations that fit a defensible bid — set-aside eligibility, geography we can support, scope our team can deliver. Industry vertical is not a filter; bid quality is.
Labor, materials, equipment, sub quotes, overhead, fee. We source each line item against the specific scope and geography of the requirement. The same costing framework works for janitorial labor in Florida and electrical materials in Alaska — only the inputs change.
Technical narrative, staffing plan, schedule, QC plan, transition-in. We write proposals that demonstrate we understand the work — whether it's an IT modernization rollout, a grounds maintenance contract, or a multi-year HVAC service agreement.
Subcontractor agreements, vendor accounts, payroll for W-2 personnel, insurance certificates, badging, kickoff meeting with the Contracting Officer and COR. Same playbook every time, scaled to the size and complexity of the award.
Field execution, deliverable submission, invoicing through IPP/Tungsten/WAWF, government interaction on modifications and option years, and on-time payment to every sub, vendor, and W-2 employee on the team. This is where most contractors break. It's where A5N is strongest.
SDVOSB-certified ownership. Every contract has a named principal accountable to the government for performance, modifications, and disputes — not a contracting officer talking to a project coordinator three layers deep.
Our active portfolio spans facilities services, grounds, construction, and HVAC — but those are simply the contracts we've won. The model applies anywhere. If the federal government is buying it, we are qualified to manage it.
Software development, modernization, cloud migration, helpdesk and end-user support, cybersecurity services, IT staffing, telecom and network installation.
Program management, logistics, training and curriculum development, technical writing, legal support services, financial and audit support, research and analysis.
Janitorial, custodial, grounds maintenance, snow removal, pest control, integrated facilities management, base operations support.
General construction, renovation, repair, demolition, sitework, paving, roofing, painting, carpentry, masonry, structural restoration.
HVAC service and installation, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, controls and BAS, generator service, fuel systems, water and wastewater.
Equipment procurement and resale, supply distribution, fleet support, parts and consumables, GSA-style buy-resell on commercial items.
This is not an exhaustive list. If a federal agency has put a requirement out for bid and the work can be sourced and managed against a defined scope, A5N Prime can compete for it.
A5N Prime's principals are not journeyman tradespeople. They are business owners, logistics professionals, and operations managers who have spent careers running multi-site, multi-discipline operations. That background is what makes the model industry-agnostic.
What translates across every industry: how to read a solicitation, how to build a cost stack, how to qualify and contract a sub, how to invoice a federal customer, how to manage cash flow across a 12- or 60-month period of performance, how to talk to a Contracting Officer when something needs to change. Those skills do not care whether the underlying work is IT modernization or grounds maintenance.
