Market Entry & Cybersecurity
Get Public Sector Ready™
Market entry support with cybersecurity execution to get products authorization ready
Get Public Sector Ready™ is a joint offering delivered in partnership with BARR Advisory, a global cybersecurity and compliance solutions provider. Together, we support technology providers entering or expanding in public sector markets by aligning market entry strategy with the cybersecurity execution required to become authorization ready.
This offering combines PSF Get Market Entry Ready™ offering with BARR Advisory security and compliance execution to help products earn trust, pursue viable authorization pathways, and scale responsibly across federal, state, and local government environments.
What We Do
Together, PSF and BARR Advisory work with leadership, product, security, and go to market teams to support public sector market entry while preparing products to become authorization ready. The focus is on aligning market positioning, product posture, and cybersecurity execution so that authorization efforts support adoption and scale rather than creating friction or rework.
Our activities include:
Our work includes:
-
Establishing public sector market entry readiness, including target buyer alignment, use case definition, and positioning relative to how governments plan, fund, and acquire technology.
-
Validating product posture and operating assumptions, ensuring the offering can support public sector deployment models, onboarding expectations, and sustainment realities.
-
Aligning authorization strategy to market intent, so FedRAMP, StateRAMP, or CMMC decisions support adoption and long-term scale rather than constraining future options.
-
Executing cybersecurity readiness activities, including control implementation support, documentation development, evidence preparation, and remediation to support authorization.
-
Leveraging automation to accelerate readiness and consistency, using repeatable workflows for control mapping, evidence collection, and compliance documentation to reduce manual effort and cycle time.
-
Facilitating coordinated engagement across pre-audit and authorization workstreams, aligning product, security, assessment, audit, and authorization stakeholders from readiness activities through formal certification.
Outcome
Teams gain a coordinated, execution-ready path to public sector market entry with cybersecurity, compliance, and authorization efforts aligned across all participating stakeholders.
The result is an authorization-ready product supported by synchronized engagement from pre-audit through authorization, reducing friction, rework, and delays while enabling credible entry and scalable growth in public sector markets.
