Road Map Consulting

What Road Map Consulting does

Road Map Consulting (RMC) is a privately held management consulting firm founded in 2009 by Michael V. Perch and headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia. The company specializes in federal government contracting advisory, providing services across the full lifecycle of GSA Schedule contracts — from eligibility assessment and proposal writing through contract management, audit support, and renewal — under its GSA 360 brand, alongside SBA 360 (SBA 8(a), WOSB, EDWOSB certification), MCM 360 (Marketing & Capture Management), CMMC Support (DoD cybersecurity compliance), CAC Support (Contract Administration and Compliance via a proprietary cloud-based document storage and collaboration platform), Federal Proposal Development, and Federal Opportunity Research. It also delivers IT Professional Services to federal agencies including TSA, ICE, Bureau of Naval Medicine, and the Joint Warfare Analysis Center, and offers professional training through wholly-owned affiliate Capstone Learning Solutions.

The firm operates its own GSA Professional Services Schedule (GS-00F-171DA) covering SINs 611512 (Integrated Consulting), 611430 (Training), 541611 (Acquisition Management), and 54151S (IT Professional Services), and holds a NASPO Valuepoint contract for state and local training access. Revenue is generated primarily through project-based consulting engagements (typical GSA proposal engagements priced at $12K-$20K), retainer-based MCM 360 services, and direct federal task-order work. The customer base spans federal agencies, small and mid-sized businesses entering federal contracting, and large federal contractors, with the firm reporting 300+ firms assisted, $1.1B in cumulative client task order awards, 98% client retention, and 92% employee retention over 16+ years of operation.

The go-to-market combines content-led demand generation (GSA knowledge center, white papers, webinars, blog, YouTube, LinkedIn) with enterprise field sales delivered through scheduled free 30-minute consultations, supplemented by indirect channels via the founder's longstanding SCORE (since 2007) and SBDC at Howard University (since 2020) affiliations. Pricing is project-based with multi-year contract cadences and payment plans; the firm is ISO 9001:2015 certified, privately held by the founder with no external institutional capital, and has no parent company or known M&A activity in the record.

Broad incumbents

• Maximus: Federal services provider operating across health, civilian, and defense agencies with program management, digital, and citizen services offerings. Comparable to RMC as a federal-facing professional services firm with a focus on government programs and compliance, but at significantly greater scale.
• SAIC: Large federal IT and professional services integrator serving defense, civilian, and intelligence customers. Shares RMC's GSA Schedule-enabled delivery model and serves overlapping federal agencies, with overlapping IT professional services and program management capabilities.
• Peraton: Federal contractor delivering IT, cyber, and mission services to defense, intelligence, and federal civilian agencies. Comparable on IT professional services delivery and government contracting expertise, but at enterprise scale with multi-billion-dollar contract vehicles.
• ICF International: Public-sector consulting firm delivering management consulting, IT, and communications services to federal agencies including DoD, GSA, and DHS. Overlaps with RMC's GSA, acquisition management, and IT professional services offerings through a significantly larger enterprise footprint.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Large, publicly traded federal consulting firm providing acquisition support, IT professional services, and management consulting across federal civilian, defense, and intelligence agencies. Operates at a vastly larger scale and contracts directly with agencies like TSA, DoD, and DOJ — overlapping RMC's federal buyer base but as part of a broader portfolio.
• ManTech: Federal IT and mission solutions provider (now operating under its pre-2022 rebrand) supporting intelligence, defense, and federal civilian agencies. Overlaps with RMC's IT professional services for clients like TSA and Bureau of Naval Medicine, with substantially larger prime contract footprint.
• CGI Federal: US federal subsidiary of CGI Inc. providing IT, business consulting, and systems integration to civilian, defense, and intelligence agencies. Overlaps with RMC on IT professional services for federal agencies like TSA and ICE, but with materially larger contract scale and staff.
• Guidehouse: Major advisory firm serving federal, state, and commercial clients with management consulting, technology, and risk services. Competes with RMC for federal acquisition management and program management support, but at the enterprise scale across multiple non-federal verticals.

Direct peers

• Winvale (now part of Unison Technologies): Federal procurement and GSA Schedule consulting firm assisting small and mid-sized businesses with GSA Schedule acquisition, contract compliance, and federal market entry. Mirrors RMC's core GSA 360 service offering, target customer segments, and value proposition, making it a closely comparable mid-sized peer.

Emerging players

• Small business capture management consultancies (e.g., Capture2Proposal / Proposal Development firms): Specialized capture management and federal proposal development consultancies (e.g., Capture2Proposal, government proposal writing boutiques) that compete with RMC's MCM 360 and federal proposal development offerings. Comparable on specific use cases (proposal writing, capture planning) rather than end-to-end GSA lifecycle services.
