Quantum Mission Partners is a fractional federal sales and mission-technology firm. We help mid-market companies whose product the US military needs win their first federal dollar and build a pipeline that lasts, without hiring a full federal team first.
The Department of War buys from companies like yours every day. Most mid-market firms never see that money. The product is rarely the problem; the path to the buyer is.
Program offices, PEOs, COCOMs, primes, resellers. Finding the one office that has money and a need for your product takes years if you guess.
SAM and UEI, CMMC, FedRAMP, Section 889, TAA. Most of it is less work than it looks, but nobody tells you which parts the first contract actually needs.
A full-time federal account executive costs over $300K a year fully loaded, before they sell a dollar. That is a big wager on a market you have not tested.
The traditional route takes 18 months or more. Faster entry points exist (SBIR, CSOs, OTAs, reseller paths), but you have to know where to look.
Start with a free Snapshot. Prove the market in 90 days at a fixed price. Then keep a senior federal sales leader on your team for a monthly fee, at a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire.
A clear-eyed look at whether federal is worth it for you, and where to start.
Everything that has to happen before a federal customer can buy from you, done in one quarter.
Your fractional federal sales leader, working your pipeline week in and week out.
Pricing is set per company after the Snapshot. Terms are fixed, predictable, cancellable and tied to milestones.
There is more than one door into the Department. We pick the one that fits your product, your cash and your timeline, and we tell you plainly how long each one takes.
Non-dilutive R&D funding that can lead to Phase III production work with no new competition.
Commercial Solutions Openings and Other Transactions, built to buy commercial technology quickly.
Established resellers, contract holders and cloud marketplaces that already sell to the buyer.
Subcontract and teaming roles with primes that need your capability on their programs.
GSA and other vehicles later, once there is past performance to stand on.
Selling to the military often means proving you can protect the mission and use AI with discipline. Our technical bench supports clients directly and helps them get ready for federal buyers.
Roughly 50 to 2,500 employees, or $10M to $1B in revenue. Series A and later is fine. We say no when we cannot help, because that protects your money and our name.
Every engagement follows the same disciplined path, with measurable success criteria set at kickoff and knowledge handed over at the end.
Confirm the problem, sponsor, funding path, decision date and success measure.
Map your current state, buyers, compliance needs and competitors' awards.
Lay out the options, risks, target accounts and a sequenced plan.
Work in short increments with weekly reporting and documented decisions.
Hand over the pipeline, playbooks and relationships. They are yours.
A lean, senior-led firm. You work with the principals, backed by a vetted bench of specialists and delivery partners when the work calls for more capacity.

Our mission: help organizations protect what matters and turn emerging technology into measurable mission outcomes.
Every recommendation ties to the customer's operational objective.
We measure the baseline and report results, not activity.
Identity, data protection and resilience are built in from the start.
Approved data, documented testing, human oversight, clear accountability.
Open standards that reduce lock-in and work with what you already run.
We protect your information, raise risks early and leave usable documentation.
The traditional path does. We start with SBIR, CSO, OTA and reseller paths that are built to move faster, and the Snapshot gives you a realistic first-dollar timeline before you spend anything.
That is the right move once there is pipeline. A full-time federal AE costs over $300K a year fully loaded before they have sold a dollar. We build the pipeline that justifies the hire, and we can help you make it.
Most companies are not at the start. The Snapshot shows exactly what your first contract path requires, which is often far less than FedRAMP High, along with the cost and time for each item.
Good. Federal Growth adds a channel to their number; it does not compete with it. We work alongside your sales leader and report into the same plan.
You do. Every contact, opportunity and partnership we build belongs to your company. We take one client per product category, so we never sell for your competitor.
About two hours a week from one product or technical person. We do the rest.
Tell us about your product. We will come back with the three best-fit federal buyers, the fastest contract path, and what it would take. It's free, and there's no obligation.
