Cairo works closely with a large number of sub-contractors as a prime vendor on GSA Federal Supply Schedule 70,
GSA STARS and Navy Seaport-e. Before opting for Privia, Cairo (

The ability to collaborate on multiple proposals and task order responses simultaneously using centralized documents and information and repeatable, scalable processes in a secure environment ultimately leads to more business won. For cost- and process-conscious government contractors, there is no better value product on the market than Privia."
"Demonstrating that you have the processes and tools in place to rapidly respond to task order requests under IDIQ and similar contract vehicles is becoming a "must have" criteria for the federal government," said Annie Eissler, vice president of product marketing at Synchris.
