What we’re building

We’re putting the power of intelligence in the hands of every contractor.

The data on who wins defense work already exists, but it’s scattered across government sites that don’t talk to each other. DefenseNetwork puts it on one platform and brings the people who do the work into one place, so your hours go into winning contracts, not hunting for them.

Finding the work

Contracts, companies, the market and the map show you who is winning DoD work, where it is done, and who they bring with them.

Contracts

Browse DoD contract history back to 2020 and find the work worth chasing.

Narrow it down by agency, contract size, industry and place of performance. See who holds the work, who they sub it to, how long it has left and whether it’s coming back as a recompete.

Bidding on it

Research, the Compliance Matrix and the Bid Tracker take a pursuit from the first question to the proposal your team submits.

Research

Ask our AI in plain English. It answers from the contract data.

We built Research around DefenseNetwork’s contract, company and subcontract data, so you can ask the way you’d ask a colleague instead of piecing it together from scattered sources. Answers come back as sentences and tables, with the figures to back them up.

SourcedEach answer says where its numbers came from.Live contract data is named as such, and anything from the web is marked separately.
Follow-upsKeep asking until you have what you need.Break a total down by command, year or company, and your recent questions stay in the sidebar.
Any angleOne box for every question.Top primes in a state, a company’s subcontractors, recompetes ending next quarter. Ask it the way you’d say it.
Bid Tracker

Run every pursuit from one board, from first look to submission.

One board for every bid your team is chasing. Assign each one, link its compliance matrix, and watch deadlines count down from Watching to Submitted.

No retypingPaste a SAM.gov link and the bid fills itself in.Title, agency, solicitation number and deadline come straight from the notice.
LinkedLink a compliance matrix to the bid it belongs to.Everything for one pursuit stays in one place for the whole team.
AssignedEveryone knows which bids are theirs.Assign each bid to someone in your workspace, and “Mine” shows them just their own.
Compliance Matrix

Turn a solicitation into a requirements checklist you can work from.

Upload the RFP or paste its SAM.gov link. You get an Excel matrix with every requirement cited to its page, and a PDF brief your capture lead can read instead of the whole solicitation.

Questions

What people ask before they start.

Something else? Email team@defensenetwork.us. A person reads every message and replies within one business day.

Where does the data come from?

Awards and subcontracts come from USASpending, and company registrations come from SAM.gov. We load both on a schedule and link them, so each award connects to its prime, its subcontractors and the agency that paid for it.

What happens when the trial ends?

Your workspace pauses. Nothing is deleted. The owner picks seats and adds a card, and everyone is back in.

Can I change seats later?

Yes, from billing settings. Seat changes are prorated to the current period.

Can I switch between monthly and annual?

Monthly to annual any time, credited for the unused month. Annual to monthly at renewal, by emailing us.

How do I cancel?

From billing settings, in two clicks. You keep access to the end of the period you have paid for, and your data is kept for 30 days after.

Can my team use it for classified or CUI work?

No. DefenseNetwork is for unclassified use only. Never enter classified or CUI information anywhere in it, including Research, the Compliance Matrix and the forum.
