McClinton & Roy

What McClinton & Roy does

McClinton & Roy (M&R) is a privately held boutique federal procurement consultancy organized as an LLC, originally founded in 1999 as Freedom Contract Management and rebranded in 2015 under its current name. The firm provides professional services to clients operating in the Government Contracting (GovCon) marketplace, with a team composed entirely of retired DoD Contracting Officers, Procurement Attorneys, and industry procurement experts whose collective federal procurement experience exceeds 250 years. Headquartered in the United States (703 area code, consistent with the Northern Virginia/Washington DC metro area), M&R operates without external institutional funding and has no parent company.

M&R delivers five core service lines: Procurement Support (chief procurement officer, contract manager, and contract specialist resources delivered on a full-time or fractional basis), Procurement Training (customized sessions with "Hip Pocket CO" follow-on support), Proposal Strategy (evaluation-friendly proposals integrated with client proposal teams), Due Diligence Support (for VC, PE, and angel investors evaluating federal contractors), and Advisory & Assistance Services ("plug-and-play" procurement leaders embedded with client teams). The go-to-market motion is sales-led and consultation-based, with prospective clients offered a free 30-minute consultation and engagements customized to client budget and scope requirements.

The firm targets three primary customer segments: prime government contractors and subcontractors navigating the federal marketplace, investment firms requiring due diligence on federal contractors, and government relations professionals requiring SME support. Revenue mechanics are entirely professional-services based, with no pricing publicly disclosed, no productized offering, no technology platform, and no recurring subscription revenue. Distribution is direct, relationship-driven, and domestic. M&R does not develop or deploy proprietary technology, AI systems, or software products; its value proposition rests on the domain expertise and insider perspective of its personnel.
