The company
Neptune and Company

Before SamSearch
A recompete cadence dies if you only look backward
At Neptune's win rate, the risk is missing the next period of performance, not finding the last one. Tracking DOE and EPA expirations by hand means a spreadsheet of end dates, or finding the re-solicitation when everyone else does: after it posts, with weeks to prep instead of months.
