State, Local, and Educational Proposal Support
SLED Proposal Support
The state, local, and education (SLED) market has three times more spending than the federal market. Since 2017 state budgets have increased, and with aid from the American Rescue Plan Act and the passage of the Infrastructure Bill, states are seeing further increased budgets.
Over the past 35 years, OCI has helped customers win numerous SLED contracts. Our 425-proposal consultant bench gives us the reach to help customers with State, Local, and Education Proposals in nearly any subject area.
