About FirstWin Federal Consulting

From Your First Win to Long-Term Growth

At FirstWin, we don’t play guessing games with your government contracting strategy. We bring 20+ years of proven, no-excuses operational leadership to help founders, startups, and small businesses compete—and win—in the federal space.

FirstWin was founded by Jeremy Casanave, a battle-tested operations executive with a proven history of scaling complex, high-stakes federal programs across 30+ clients throughout the government.

Jeremy has built successful GovCons from the ground up, overseeing $15M+ in revenue, 200+ team members, and dozens of contracts for agencies like ICE, DEA, and DHS. He’s managed procurement pipelines over $25M, launched ISO-certified QA systems, and led crisis deployments with under-30-day timelines.

Now, through FirstWin, he’s bringing that same precision, clarity, and accountability to your business.

What Makes FirstWin Different?

    From capability statements to section-by-section proposal writing, we help you operationalize your vision into a government-ready offering that’s easy to award.

  • AI-Enhanced, Human-Driven
    We integrate automation, dashboards, and prompt libraries to cut your overhead, boost your proposal throughput, and give you data you can act on.

  • No Bureaucracy, No BS
    We’re not a bloated consultancy. We move fast, think critically, and treat your pipeline like our own.
