In this episode of Govcon Giants, I sit down with Lisa Shea Mundt, Co-Founder of The Pulse of GovCon, to unpack how artificial intelligence is transforming the federal marketplace — from the GSA’s Grok AI rollout to the Pentagon’s $200 million AI investments. With 14 years of experience and billions in proposal wins, Lisa shares a front-row view of how automation is reshaping the bid process — and what small businesses can do to stay competitive, human, and ahead. We dive into how contractors can future-proof their strategies, adapt to data-driven procurement, and leverage AI instead of fearing it.

Key Takeaways:

• AI is changing the language of proposals — clarity, strategy, and storytelling matter more than ever.

• Federal buyers are evolving fast; small businesses must evolve their capture and BD processes to match.

• The future belongs to those who can pair tech literacy with human insight in every proposal and pitch.
