CFOL

What CFOL does

CFOL International, Inc. is a privately held professional services firm founded in 2009 and headquartered in College Park, Georgia (Atlanta metro). The company operates as a federal contractor holding SBA 8(a) Business Development Program and Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) certifications, which make it eligible for sole-source federal contracts up to $4M and provide a structural procurement advantage in set-aside procurements. Its service portfolio spans IT, Project Management, HR Management, Administrative Support, Facilities Support, and NABCEP-certified solar design and installation, delivered primarily to U.S. federal civilian and defense agencies through three GSA Schedule vehicles (00 Corp, 738X Human Capital, and 520 Financial Services).

The firm's distribution and go-to-market are entirely oriented around federal procurement channels: GSA Schedules streamline buying for federal, state, and local government customers, while 8(a) and SDVOSB designations enable sole-source and restricted-competition awards. Named engagements include Advanced Medical Support Assistance for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, an Advanced-Level DARPA study for the Macomb-Oakland University SmartZone, and DCAA pre-award audit support for Compact Power Inc. (an LG Chem subsidiary) tied to a $303M Department of Energy grant. CFOL also generates a secondary revenue and brand layer through DAU-approved training delivered at The Contracting Education Academy at Georgia Tech and at APTAC events, with over 2,000 federal contracting professionals trained since 2009.

Commercially, CFOL monetizes through professional services engagements on multi-year contract terms under GSA Schedule pre-negotiated pricing or sole-source awards; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm has been recognized three times on the Inc. 5000 list (2018, 2019, 2023) as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America, received a Congressional citation, and maintains an international client footprint across the U.S., Germany, Spain, Iraq, Dubai, and Western Asia, although federal work remains the dominant revenue driver. Ownership is founder/management-controlled with no disclosed parent company or institutional investor.
