On this episode of GovCon Giants, I’m diving deep into one of the biggest shifts we’ve seen in federal contracting in recent years. I sat down with Chelsea Meggitt—federal contracting strategist, author, and someone who knows this space inside and out—to talk about a powerful Executive Order that’s opening up brand-new opportunities for small businesses. If you’re tired of waiting on slow, traditional FAR-based contracting processes, this episode is going to open your eyes.

We’re talking fast-track pathways, non-FAR vehicles, and how to position yourself before an RFP ever drops. Chelsea and I unpack how to build real relationships with government buyers, shape requirements in your favor, and even outcompete the big primes. Whether you’re just breaking into federal work or looking for a smarter way to scale, this conversation will give you a competitive edge most people don’t even know exists.
