About QuantX
Our Goal
At QuantX , our goal is to achieve acquisition excellence regardless of which side the federal equation your needs are driven from.
For our industry partners, this means volume writing, comprehensive PMP development, color team reviews, talk track scripting, leading transition-in and post-award performance.
For our federal customers, this means acquisition planning with SOW, SOO and PWS development, quantifying your environment, IGCE support, evaluation assistance and project management training.
What exactly do you need to quantify?
The short answer: most everything.
Some of the most useful ingredients inside a federal solicitation are quantifiable - service desk volumetrics, user-based hardware and software, network-based physical and virtual machines, asset lifecycle data, vulnerability remediation, POAM backlog, knowledge articles. And on the backend, a fully developed and vetted IGCE.
Some of the most useful ingredients when responding to federal solicitations are also quantifiable - maximizing meaningful strengths, minimizing weaknesses and risks, value-enhancing responsiveness, verifiable benefits, payback periods, and transition-in tasks.
Some of the most useful ingredients inside a post-award delivery - you guessed it - are also quantifiable - performance metrics, ticket burn down, asset refresh, patch management, project schedules, risk management, monitoring thresholds.
