Contracting
Prime Contractor
The company that holds the direct contract with the government and is responsible for overall delivery, management, and compliance.
What is Prime Contractor?
Prime contractors can be large defense companies, specialized small businesses, or startups that win direct awards. They manage customer relationships, deliverables, subcontractors, compliance flow-downs, and contract performance.
For startups, partnering with a prime can be a practical first path into government work. It can provide access to programs and past performance while the startup focuses on a specific technology contribution.
