Use info from DOD Awards
to find the contract details
in the FBO.GOV posting of
original Solicitation as it was
listed in FBO – using the
Advanced Search Archive.
(More on next slide)
In this case the FBO posting
linked to details on the SPAWAR Contracts site.
(It is not uncommon that
FBO Postings link to a DOD

Website for the details, but
this is the minority of all of

The key point is that you

Many DOD and some
other Agencies havelegacy bid sites thatCross-Post (automatic)procurement noticesfrom their legacy systems to FBO.gov.

Routine Use of FEDBIZOPPS.
• For Contracts at Tinker, search keyword “Tinker” or use Zip “73145”
• But now under AFSC, things get more complicated
• Tinker includes FA81XX entities, so keyword can be “FA81*”
• Or move up to AFSC level using “AFSC”, the word “and” then “Tinker”
• Now add DLA Tinker Office which uses prefix “SPRTA” “T” for Tinker Office
• “W” for DLA Robins Office, “H” for DLA Hill AFB Office,
• Other letter codes for DLA Offices at USAF, Army and Navy sites
• Note – These solicitations are not yet on DLA DIBBS (working on it)
• For Activity at Other USAF – search using “Air”, then “and” then “CONS”
• CONS for Contracting Squadron at the facility
• Some of these sites include “Recurring Contracts” lists
• Or Search on your favorite Buyer/Contracting Officer
• Simple Keyword search using First and Last name
• Narrows searches based on Buyers area of responsibility
• Note – Open up other search criteria to get a full picture of AOR
• Note: Click “TIPS” icon on FBO for “how to” features of Boolean search

FEDBIZOPPS Advanced Search of Archives….
• Log-In to FEDBIZOPPS as a Vendor (not required but helpful)
• Select Advanced Search rather than Opportunities List search
• In Advanced Search, under Documents to Search, select BOTH
• Leave Set-Aside codes unchecked unless this is of interest
• Leave Opportunity/Procurement Type unchecked
or Check Award Notice to limit duplicate Solicitations
but note that note all posted Solicitations that are awarded
have their award posted in FEDBIZOPPS
• For this search run on August 11, there were over 600,000 awards posted
• Use Refine Results to pare down results
• By Agency/Office Locations to include Specific Agency/Office
• Or By NAICS Code (3 and 5 digit codes – don’t be overly specific
• Or By Classification (PSC and/or FSC) – a Solicitation can use Both
• Add a Keyword for more targeting (See Tips for word/phrase searches)
• My suggestion – start broad and then pare down – don’t fixate on a single
NAICS or Classification Code as assignments vary by Contracting Officer

So what does an Archive Search get you?
• Quick Archive Search using NAICS 336411, 336412 and 336413 (Aircraft)
• Results 35,449 Awards
• Refine this search by Search/Select Department of the Air Force
and further down Air Force Material Command
• Results now 15,077 (Note – These do not include purchases via DLA)
History back to 2004! (A lot has changed – see note above)
• Refine further using a PSC/FSC Code two digit code to get closer
• Note that some USAF and many other AWARD notices in FEDBIZOPPS
are just an AWARD notice while for other Agencies, the Award is
included in the list of posting of a Solicitation. In some cases, the
original Solicitation number is included in the posting, not always,
so it may take some interaction with USASpending to find it.
• Either way, find/review the Solicitation of learn about the Awardee
and/or the Buy item/service
• You will get a good feel on Who is buying What When and How
(to include Set-Asides when applicable)

CAPTURE PLANNING
Capture Planning is a term used to describe the broad effort used to align a
prospective government Vendor’s marketing and development efforts to a
specific government product/services requirement in the timeframe
extending months and even years prior to the date the actual procurement
solicitation “hits the street”.
Various methodologies exist as guideline to the Capture Planning process.
The steps common to most of the published guidelines include:
• Identification of the government customer need 1-2 years out
• Align company capability with government need, or get team partners
• Identify key decision makers and influencers involved, i.e. relationships
• Fully understand government agency/decision making structure

• Ensure company timeline for proposal development is sufficient
• Staff company Proposal Team with knowledgeable staff/team partners
