Capability Statement

A capability statement is a concise, typically one-to-two-page marketing document that summarizes your company's core competencies, past performance, differentiators, and relevant certifications. It serves as a business resume for government and commercial clients.

A strong capability statement includes your company overview, core competencies, past performance highlights, differentiators, NAICS codes, socioeconomic certifications (8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB), contract vehicles, and contact information. It should be visually professional and easy to scan.

Capability statements are used in networking events, industry days, vendor outreach sessions, and as attachments to teaming proposals. They help contracting officers and prime contractors quickly assess whether your company has the qualifications they need. Keeping your capability statement current and tailored to specific audiences is a best practice.
