Ep 386: Surviving Executive Orders - Pivoting Through Chaos

In this episode of Game Changers for Government Contractors, Michael LeJeune talks with Kim Ali of Kim Ali Consulting about her remarkable comeback after losing 80% of her revenue in early 2025 due to sweeping executive orders. Kim shares how she used equitable adjustments to create a financial cushion, analyzed shifting federal priorities, and rebuilt her pipeline to $40M in just months. They discuss emerging trends that every contractor must watch, including the potential removal of the Rule of Two, changes to past performance requirements, and the importance of securing a GSA schedule. Kim also offers practical advice on diversifying beyond federal contracts, leveraging teaming opportunities, and above all, building strong relationships. This is a masterclass in resilience, strategy, and thriving in uncertain markets. ----- Frustrated with your government contracting journey?
