Want to know how many federal system integrators generate more winning bids and sleep better?
Winning government contracts is all about differentiating yourself. Do you offer a better product? Is your budget attractive? Are the proven results you claim extra compelling? If you can differentiate yourself and optimize your budget on the contract, you will win for both your client and your.
Federal integrators and system integrators are being hit with new regulatory bars they have to clear in an alphabet soup of acronyms. Your compliance must meet FISMA, DFARS, RMF, and NIST mandates and benchmarks, controls, and standards.. And you’ll soon be expected to earn CMMC status. The good news is that there is much overlap between the many requirements. The bad news is that it will probably take more than the staff you have on hand to manage.
So how can you differentiate yourself and keep costs down? The best answer out there is automation.
Compete at a higher level with automation.
Think of how you sell your products and services to the government and the costs and human resources involved. Now imagine some group walks in with a comparable offering, but they have an innovative way of ensuring cybersecurity compliance. Not only that, but their bid comes in under yours. AND they achieve faster ATOs. You’re going to lose. How could you not?
That’s the kind of impact SteelCloud’s ConfigOS delivers to its customers. Here are some results from a use case with a large SI. They are pretty typical of what we deliver:
- Achieve system STIG compliance in under an hour—not days or weeks
- Reduce annual cyber-hardening efforts from 40,000 hours to 2,500—that’s over 90% faster
- Reduce system compliance costs by millions in large implementations, including reducing manpower expenditures by over 70%
You achieve the same kind of time and effort saved when maintaining your secure baselines over time. Among the Top 10 System Integrators, 8 use SteelCloud’s ConfigOS to differentiate themselves and perform like leaders. Coincidence? We think not!
Rise to the top of the proposal pile with automated ease.
Opportunities for SIs are increasing, but many still suffer a low proposal-to-close rate. So who is winning these bids? The ones that can differentiate themselves in delivery method, delivery cost, innovation, and or speed will most likely win the contract. ConfigOS improves your chances and your bottom line on every parameter and every contract. On fixed-price contracts, the benefits are even more significant.
As technology and its associated threats continue to advance, automation has proven itself to perform better than any other method for cybersecurity compliance. But unfortunately, human effort in these laborious tasks is slower, and increases the chance for human error.
