# Find Subcontracting Partners

Not every contract opportunity requires you to bid as a prime. Many large awards go to firms that then subcontract specialist work to smaller suppliers. Finding those primes before a tender drops — or right after an award — gives you a head start on teaming conversations.

Contract Opportunities lets you search awards to find which firms win large contracts in your area, use buyer intelligence to understand the scale and frequency of those awards, and review opportunity details to spot upcoming large procurements where teaming makes sense. The result is a targeted list of potential prime partners rather than cold outreach.
