As a consultant and founder of RWCO, I bring over 25 years of leadership across government contracting and commercial growth strategy. I’ve led clients to more than $217 billion in awarded contracts and grants, with a CPA-audited win rate of 73%, spanning the federal, state, and local government sectors as well as commercial B2B and B2C markets. My work supports both small, set-aside-certified firms (8(a), SDVOSB, HUBZone, WOSB) and global enterprises competing in full-and-open environments. I’ve delivered results across 28+ industrial sectors, including defense, IT, cybersecurity, logistics, healthcare, energy, facilities, and international development. My reach extends across the U.S. and into 23 overseas markets, with deep expertise in acquisition strategy, pricing, GSA compliance, and joint venture structures. Whether you are a small business seeking to scale or a large enterprise targeting complex pursuits, I offer a structured, high-trust engagement model focused on long-term capability, strategic clarity, and competitive success. Bottom line: I don't just help companies chase contracts—I build winning systems, shape strategies that perform, and stand behind every client as a trusted, results-driven partner.
