B2G (business-to-government) sales follow formal procurement rules. Lead generation here means being registered, visible and ready when opportunities are published, and building relationships before they are.
1. Register as a supplier
Register on the relevant procurement portals (for example SAM.gov for US federal contracts, Find a Tender / Contracts Finder in the UK, and local or state portals).
2. Monitor tenders
Set alerts for your codes and keywords. Early awareness gives time to prepare quality bids.
3. Build relationships early
Attend supplier days, industry briefings and pre-market engagement events. Within procurement rules, understand needs before tenders are written.
4. Partner with primes
Subcontracting to larger contractors is often the easiest entry point.
5. Prepare compliance documents
Insurance, certifications, security clearances, past performance records and diversity or small business certifications where applicable.
6. Position for public value
Cost savings, compliance, accessibility, security and social value matter alongside price.
Track bids, contacts and follow-ups in one CRM.
