One product, two jobs

Small contractors lose bids twice. First by never seeing them, then on paperwork.

Oppward fixes both halves. Find shows you the contracts that fit before the deadline is close. Win turns the 80-page solicitation into a compliant proposal.

01 Find

New contracts matched to your business, every morning.

We read every new SAM.gov notice and Grants.gov listing, match them to your codes, field and state, and send you the short list in plain English.

  • Matched on NAICS and product codes, keywords and set-aside eligibility
  • Deadline, agency, place and set-aside on one line, no acronyms
  • A link to the official listing on every match

Find

The government already buys what you sell.

Federal agencies post thousands of ordinary jobs every week: janitorial contracts, roof repairs, IT support, trucking, training. It is all public. It is also spread across two government sites, written in procurement shorthand, and easy to miss.

    Your field, where you work, your size. About a minute.

Building a compliance matrix

Walkthrough coming soon
Building a compliance matrixSolicitation in, requirements and matrix out. Recording of the proposal workspace.

Win

Write it with us, or have it written.

Plenty of bids are out before anyone looks at price: a missed instruction, a page over the limit, an evaluation factor nobody answered. The workspace makes those hard to miss.

  1. 01

    Requirements, extracted

    Section L instructions, Section M factors and the statement of work, with references.

  2. 02

    A matrix you write against

    Each requirement mapped to the page that answers it, updated as you draft.

  3. 03

    Disqualifiers, flagged first

    Page limits, submission rules, missing references, before you write a word.

  4. 04

    Drafts from your material

    Built from your company profile and past proposals. You edit and approve.

ProposalsCustodial services, federal office buildingSample

  • Only 2 past performance references L.3.4

    L.3.4 requires three within five years. Proposals missing a reference may be rated unacceptable.

    Disqualifier

  • Submission deadline is 2:00 PM Eastern, by email only L.2.1

    Late or hand-delivered proposals will not be considered. The draft schedule assumes an end-of-day upload.

    Disqualifier

  • Supervisor named, resume not attached L.3.2

    L.3.2 asks for the resume as an attachment, not a summary in the narrative.

    Risk

Sample output from a fictional solicitation. Not a real agency document or customer proposal.

Why trust us

Built by people who write proposals for a living.

Oppward comes from a team that already runs a profitable proposal-writing practice. We built the software we wanted for our own clients, and we put our writers behind it.

What we will not do

  • 01

    Charge you for something the government gives away

    SAM.gov registration and SBA certification applications are free. If we do them for you, we say so.

  • 02

    Promise you will win

    We show what agencies have posted and make your bid compliant. Evaluators decide.

  • 03

    Hide the source

    Every listing links to the official SAM.gov or Grants.gov record.

  • 04

    Pretend to be the government

    Oppward is independent and not affiliated with any agency.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly

Something else? Write to [email protected]. A person answers.

Are these real contracts?
Yes. Every listing is a notice an agency posted publicly on SAM.gov or Grants.gov, refreshed daily, and every one links to the official record so you can check it yourself.
Do I need to be a government contractor already?
No. Many people on Oppward have never bid before. You do need a SAM.gov registration to be awarded a federal contract. Registering is free on SAM.gov; we can also do it for you.
What does the proposal side actually do?
You upload or pick a solicitation. We pull out the instructions (Section L) and evaluation factors (Section M), build a compliance matrix, flag anything that could disqualify you, and draft sections from your company information and past proposals. A person can review it, or our writers can finish the whole proposal.
Will AI write my proposal for me?
It drafts, it does not decide. The software is fast at reading 80 pages and tracing every requirement. A person, you or one of our writers, owns what gets submitted.
Who writes the done-for-you proposals?
Our own proposal team, the same people who already write proposals for paying clients. Each project gets a flat price quoted from the solicitation before work starts.
Is Oppward affiliated with the government?
No. Oppward is an independent, privately run service. We organize public procurement data and help you respond to it; no signup or purchase implies government endorsement.
