How Contragenix LLC Achieved Seven OASIS+ (Phase I) Awards Without a Single Rejection
Executive Summary
A group of small and mid-sized federal contractors faced a high-risk, points-based qualification environment under OASIS+ Phase I, where even minor documentation gaps could result in disqualification. Contragenix LLC applied an evidence-driven, audit-ready qualification framework to restructure their self-scoring, documentation, and domain positioning. The result: seven out of seven contractors successfully secured OASIS+ Phase I awards, with no compliance rejections and significantly reduced qualification risk. The engagement delivered stronger scoring discipline, accelerated submission readiness, and long-term competitive positioning for future IDIQ opportunities.
Contragenix was engaged to help a consortium of leadership experts and organizational coaches respond to this opportunity. Our client deeply committed to equity, wellness, and leadership grounded in lived experience needed a strategy that honored both their depth and their humanity.
Client Background
The clients were small and mid-sized federal government contractors operating across professional services, engineering, logistics, intelligence support, and enterprise solutions. These firms were actively pursuing contract vehicle access to expand their federal footprint but lacked internal infrastructure to navigate a highly structured, self-scoring acquisition model.
Their goals included:
Challenge
OASIS+ Phase I introduced a self-scoring, evidence-driven qualification process where contractors were required to prove their eligibility through defensible documentation rather than traditional narrative proposals.
The clients faced critical risks including:
Failure would not only mean losing the bid but also missing multi-year federal market access.
Problem Analysis
The complexity of the challenge included:
The clients did not need stronger writing. They needed structural qualification engineering.
Solution
Contragenix LLC designed and deployed a repeatable, evidence-first qualification system specifically aligned to the OASIS+ evaluation model, including:
Each solution was tailored based on contractor size, target domains, and internal maturity.
Implementation
Contragenix executed the engagement through a structured, phased delivery model:
This approach created clarity, speed, and internal alignment without disrupting client operations.
Results
Conclusion
This engagement demonstrated that success in OASIS+ is driven by engineering discipline, not persuasive writing. By treating self-scoring as an auditable technical system, Contragenix helped contractors eliminate qualification risk, strengthen internal infrastructure, and secure long-term federal market positioning.
The frameworks built during OASIS+ Phase I now enable these contractors to scale faster, compete confidently, and expand naturally into OASIS+ Phase II.
