I've spent the last decade in the intelligence and defense world—on contracts, in agencies, and in the cleared recruiting trenches. Tier One Talent works with primes, subs, and federal agencies on two things: getting compliant and getting staffed. We know this space because we've lived it. Clearances, DCAA audits, FCL packages, CMMC self-assessments, labor categories, prime negotiations—it's not theory for us. CMMC — Level 1 Certified, Level 2 Practitioner. Tier One Talent is CMMC Level 1 self-certified (CAGE 0AQ82, CMMC UID S100046095, verifiable in SPRS). I'm currently serving as FSO, ITPSO, and acting ISSO on a live CMMC Level 2 buildout for a federal subsidiary—Atomicorp managed compliance platform, Microsoft GCC High enclave, 110-control SSP and POA&M framework in active development, scoping decisions finalized across CUI, Security Protection Assets, and Specialized Assets. I work both maturity levels weekly, which means I know how to scaffold L1 documentation so it extends cleanly into L2 instead of getting thrown away at the next cycle. Federal Consulting. DCAA-compliant accounting systems. NIST 800-171 packages. FCL packet preparation and DCSA coordination. Security program documentation. Subcontractor positioning. SPRS score submissions. We take companies from first-time SAM.gov registration to audit-ready infrastructure—built right, not rebuilt later. Cleared & Uncleared Recruiting. Federal, DoD, IC, IT, aerospace. Junior roles through senior leadership. FSP, TS/SCI, public trust—every clearance level, every LCAT. We find people who aren't on job boards, verify what matters, and deliver candidates your team actually wants to interview. Capture & Proposal Support. Staffing strategies for bids. LCAT alignment. Teaming agreements. Workshare negotiations. The pieces that make proposals competitive and contracts executable. We've helped small businesses break into federal and helped established contractors win recompetes. If you need compliant infrastructure, qualified talent, or both—we should talk.
