“We use GovWin IQ for sourcing for new contracts and for identifying detailed information, like expiring contract data, teaming sources, and agency contact info that we couldn’t get from public sources. It’s also miles ahead of other services on the support front. I usually have our question answered the same day from our account person.” - Thomas Smith, QES Manager, Jantec
