A single SLED pursuit burns 200–800 hours of senior capture labor — $10K to $20K per bid. BronzeKeel handles the pre-bid work at a flat $1,500–$3,500. Pursue three to five times more opportunities on the same capture budget.
| Senior staff hours / pursuit | 200–800 |
| Internal loaded cost | $10K–$20K |
| BronzeKeel flat fee | $1.5K–$3.5K |
| Pursuits on $50K — internal only | 3 |
| Pursuits on $50K — with BronzeKeel | 10–12 |
Same $50,000 capture budget. Two ways to spend it. The math is the entire pitch.
| Per-pursuit economics | Internal only | With BronzeKeel |
|---|---|---|
| Senior staff hours per pursuit | 200–800 | 20–60 |
| Loaded labor cost ($85/hr blended) | $17,000–$68,000 | $1,700–$5,100 |
| External fee | — | $1,500–$3,500 |
| Total cost per pursuit | $17,000–$68,000 | $3,200–$8,600 |
| Pursuits possible on $50K capture budget | 1–3 | 10–12 |

We are a Remote Service Provider. The delivery team operates from outside the United States. Data lives in U.S. cloud regions. We are explicit about this in every NDA — and we restrict scope accordingly.
BronzeKeel is the operating brand of CloudUpload Technology LLC, a Wyoming-incorporated U.S. company active since 2022 with an active EIN. We work with U.S. prime contractors pursuing State, Local, Education, and District government contracts.
Our delivery team operates from outside the United States. Client data lives exclusively in U.S. cloud regions. We do not pretend otherwise — the Remote Service Provider model is disclosed in every NDA, and our scope is restricted to the work it can legally support: pre-bid intelligence, compliance, and proposal drafting for SLED procurements that carry no federal funding, no clearance requirement, and no regulated data.
The RSP model is the only structure that lets us deliver this work at a fraction of internal capture cost without violating procurement rules. We sit behind the prime. Your name is on the cover page. Your team owns the buyer relationship. We never appear.
"A capture budget isn't a budget for winning —
it's a budget for showing up. We make showing up cheap."
