In this episode, host Eric Coffey sits down with Zach Golden to walk through a live demo of creating a professional, high-scoring capability statement in under 15 minutes using AI tools, specifically OpenGovIQ, a platform built on a library of over 100 successful capability statements. Here's what you'll learn in this episode: Why most capability statements score a C+ or lower — and the exact mistakes contractors make by leading with certifications instead of core competencies and differentiators How AI grades and rewrites your capability statement — the scoring breakdown covers layout, information flow, company data (CAGE code, UEI), certifications, and past performance narratives The #1 formatting mistake killing your score — core competencies buried in past performance sections instead of being explicitly called out with bullet points Why NAICS codes alone aren't enough — you must spell out what engineering, R&amp;amp;D, or construction services you actually perform so COs and project managers can match you to opportunities A real warning about AI hallucinations — always double-check cage codes, phone numbers, and financial figures before submitting any document to a federal agency If you want to learn more about the community and to join the webinars go to: https://federalhelpcenter.com/ https://federalhelpcenter.com/ Website: https://govcongiants.org/ Connect with Encore Funding: http://govcongiants.org/funding Govcon Giants Podcast https://govcongiants.com/podcast/ <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/40689805/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/200319715
