Why does a single page of a government solicitation cost industry up to $25,000? In this episode, Harrison Smith, VP of Business Development at Easy Dynamics and former FDIC Acquisition Innovation Advocate, pulls back the curtain on the high cost of GovCon complexity. Smith joins host Chris Hamm to discuss the "Pilot IRS" success story, where he slashed procurement cycles to just 35 days, and shares how transparency and streamlined communication can lower the "complexity tax" for both government and industry.
