“Michelle has been really easy to work with. She has helped my company earn government contracts.
I like that she follows through on her emails and it is on top of her game!"
Bruno Berendsohn
Premier Contractors
“Michelle played a key role in getting our company ready for government contracting. She handled our SAM.gov registration and renewals, developed our capability statement, and has helped us stay compliant with state government contracts.
On top of that, she guided us through proposal development, and how to present our services effectively. Her input on aligning our website and past performance with what government buyers expect was also valuable.
With her help, we also won a 3-year contract with NTTA.”
About
My name is Michelle Heron.
With over 8 years of experience assisting clients with GSA Schedule consulting, I’ve seen it all—SIP, FAR, mods, T&Cs - more acronyms than most people ever want to know.
I help businesses cut through the red tape and step confidently into the world of federal contracting.
​
I bring deep knowledge of compliance requirements, procurement procedures, and GSA contracting practices to every client I work with—but what really sets me apart is my personalized, detail-oriented approach.
I’m all about clarity, accuracy, and helping you get results without getting lost in government-speak. If you’re ready to take on the federal market (and maybe even enjoy the process a little), I’m here to help.
