Recruitment & Placement

Recruitment approaches for federal contractor positions in program/ project/ portfolio management, governance, policy and Capital Planning (CPIC) are unlike other IT and management disciplines in the federal government. Recruitment activities are increasingly challenging in the federal marketplace as "price to win" strategies, most often on LPTA contracts, lead to the inability to afford and place qualified talent in positions. Often recruiters are attempting to staff LPTA contracts someone low-bid without understanding or researching the actual rates of these professionals, who invest heavily in their education and expertise to be qualified and certified annually. Ultimately, and inevitably, this ongoing dilemma makes those so-called "win strategies" short-lived failures that create distrust among federal clients and poor CPARS past performance ratings, causing irreversible damage in terms of viability of future wins.

Zen Federal provides referrals, subcontract agreements, placements and junior/ mid level analyst training for areas of CPIC, Project / Portfolio Management, Governance and related specials via our alliance with FITSourcing.org. We work with your HR teams and recruiters to network directly with known, referred and vetted candidates to help identify appropriate placements and appropriate compensation packages. We can assess your pricing and costing strategies and advise what "best value" approaches attract and retain the talent that ensures strong incumbency positions and positive CPARS outcomes. Zen Federal's teams have been entrenched in this space for nearly twenty years, and we know the ways to interview, price and screen talent unlike recruitment professionals who do not specialize in this discipline.
