Bridge Gap Solutions competes for federal facilities and building-trade contracts and, where the contract permits, hires qualified subcontracting companies to do the work. We manage each contract from award through closeout and remain responsible to the government.

We are a federal prime contractor—not a staffing, recruiting, employment-placement, or lead-generation company.

01Audiences

Who We Serve

We are a small business registered in SAM.gov. We pursue federal contracts in our own name, use qualified subcontractors where the contract allows, and answer to the government for the result. Our founder, Nicholas Paletta, handles inquiries directly.

03Our process

How It Works

  1. An agency issues a solicitation

    A federal agency publishes a requirement and invites offers.

  2. We compete as the prime

    We submit an offer in our own name and sign the contract if awarded.

  3. We award subcontracts

    Where the contract permits, we hire qualified subcontracting companies to perform the work.

  4. We manage performance

    We manage schedule, quality, compliance, records, and invoicing from award through closeout.

How we qualify subcontractors

Before a company is named in an offer or receives a subcontract, we confirm what that contract requires:

  • Not excluded from federal contracting (checked in SAM.gov)
  • A UEI or SAM.gov registration, if the contract requires one
  • Licenses required for the work and its location
  • Insurance and bonding that meet the contract's terms
  • Relevant experience, references, and capacity for the job

How we will manage each contract

Our commitments on every contract we win:

  • One point of contact for the contracting officer
  • Written subcontracts that pass along the contract's required terms
  • Subcontracted work kept within federal limits on small-business set-asides
  • Schedule tracking, inspections, and quality checks
  • Records, reports, invoices, and closeout handled by Bridge Gap Solutions

Subcontracting never shifts responsibility. Bridge Gap Solutions remains the prime contractor, accountable to the government for the entire contract.

05Teaming & subcontracting

Work With Us

For prime contractors

We can join your team as a small-business subcontractor or teaming partner on facilities and building-trade solicitations and take responsibility for a defined scope. To start, send:

  • The solicitation number and agency
  • The scope you want us to perform
  • The place of performance
  • Your response deadline

Our UEI, CAGE code, registered NAICS codes, and verification links are under Contracting Information.

Teaming Inquiry

For subcontracting companies

To be considered as a subcontractor on contracts we pursue, send:

  • Company name, UEI if registered, and a company contact
  • Services, NAICS codes, and where you perform work
  • Licenses, insurance, and certifications
  • A link to your capabilities statement or website

Businesses only. We do not recruit or place job seekers. Submitting does not guarantee work; we contact companies when a contract needs their services.

07Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Plain answers, grouped by who is asking. Select a question to show its answer.

Companies seeking subcontracting opportunities

Back to subcontracting overview
Who can submit capabilities?

Businesses that can perform work in our service areas, especially facilities and building trades. We do not accept job applications or résumés from individuals; we are a federal contracting company, not a staffing or recruiting firm.

Do we need a SAM.gov registration or UEI?

Not always. Some contracts require subcontractors to have a UEI or SAM.gov registration; others do not. We tell you what a specific contract requires. If your company is registered, include your UEI.

Does submitting our capabilities guarantee work?

No. Contract awards and subcontracts are never guaranteed. We contact companies when we are pursuing a contract that needs their services. Work follows only if we are awarded that contract and select your company.

How are subcontractors paid?

Under a written subcontract with Bridge Gap Solutions that sets the scope, price, schedule, and invoicing terms. Your company invoices us, and we pay you under those terms. You work as an independent company, not as our employee.

Federal agencies & contracting officers

Back to agencies overview
Is Bridge Gap Solutions eligible to compete for our requirement?

We are a small business registered in SAM.gov under UEI XHLDNTDNCHS8 and CAGE 24RF4. Eligibility for a specific requirement depends on its NAICS code, size standard, and any set-aside. You can confirm our registration through the SBA and SAM.gov links under Contracting Information.

Who is responsible for the work if you use subcontractors?

We are. As the prime contractor, we sign the contract and answer to the government for all of the work, including work a subcontractor performs. Your contracting officer has one point of contact: us.

Are there limits on how much you subcontract?

On small-business set-asides, yes. Federal rules limit how much of the contract amount can go to subcontractors, with some exceptions. We plan each contract to stay within the limits that apply to it.

How do we start a conversation about a requirement?

Use the contact form and choose Federal Agency / Contracting Officer. Include the agency, the requirement or solicitation number, the place of performance, and your timeline. Our identifiers and capabilities statement are under Contracting Information.

Do you provide staffing or temporary workers?

No. We are a federal contracting company, not a staffing or recruiting firm. Code 561320, Temporary Help Services, appears in our registration, but we do not provide temporary staffing or place workers.

Prime contractors seeking a teaming partner

Back to prime contractors overview
Can you use your own subcontractors on our scope?

Only where your prime contract and our subcontract permit it. If we do, we remain accountable to you for that work.

Will subcontracting to you count toward our small-business goals?

It may. Whether a subcontract counts depends on the rules that apply to your contract and subcontracting plan, and on our size status under the relevant NAICS code. Confirm the requirements for your specific contract.

Who is accountable to the government?

You are. As the prime contractor, you hold the contract and remain accountable to the government. We are accountable to you for the scope in our subcontract, and we use lower-tier subcontractors only where your contract and our subcontract permit.

How do payment and work arrangements function?

A written subcontract between our companies sets the scope, price, schedule, and the contract terms we must follow. We invoice your company under that subcontract, not the government.
