Fund Me

Importing Every Funding Opportunity and Procurement Solicitation from Federal, State, County, Local, and Private Institutions in the United States. A practical book about finding the sources, preserving the evidence, tracking the changes, and building a national opportunity library — and a companion to The Sales Agent User's Manual.

The early parts are written for founders, sales teams, grant writers, researchers, and operations leaders. The later parts give builders a design for ingestion, evidence, identity, search, and quality control. The closing workbook supplies procedures that can be put to use immediately.

Every invented institution, amount, notice number, schedule, score, and operating budget in its worked examples is labelled as an example. Source notes identify the official documentation and institutional pages consulted; those sources establish facts about publication systems, while the architecture and rollout recommendations are the book's own design choices.

Reading routes. Straight through, to design the service. Parts II and VII for a new source, then the onboarding worksheet. Parts VIII and X when results are unreliable. Part XI for the practical connection to the repository. Whichever route, one question stays close: can a reader trace this opportunity back to what its issuer actually published?
  1. PART I

    The promise of a national library

    Start with the decision, not the link. Opportunity families, record roles, and how to write an honest boundary.

  2. PART II

    Map the institutions first

    Two registries. Seeding from Census, IPEDS and IRS directories, then verifying at the institution itself.

  3. PART III

    Federal sources

    Where federal assistance and procurement are actually published, and what each system does and does not contain.

  4. PART IV

    States

    Fifty publication regimes, and the patterns that repeat across them.

  5. PART V

    Counties, cities, and special districts

    The long tail: shared vendor platforms, bid boards, and offices that publish nowhere central.

  6. PART VI

    Private institutions

    Foundations, corporations, and the directories that do not cover them.

  7. PART VII

    Import

    Collection design: bounded queries, staged detail retrieval, and completeness status.

  8. PART VIII

    Evidence

    Documents, amendments, and proving a record traces back to what the issuer published.

  9. PART IX

    Identity and normalization

    Stable identifiers, deduplication that does not merge on names, and preserving units and qualifications.

  10. PART X

    Operations

    Source states, repair tickets, freshness targets, and quality control.

  11. PART XI

    Connect the library to The Sales Agent

    The concrete integration: what the repository already does, and where the boundary is.

  12. PART XII

    National rollout

    Expanding scope as named, reviewable work.

  13. PART XIII

    Workbook

    Procedures, worksheets, and a jurisdiction onboarding register.

  14. PART XIV

    Sources

    Twenty-eight primary-source references consulted for this edition.

Tell us the sources you cannot afford to miss

The Sales Agent runs today against a working set of federal and state sources. Onboarding a new institution is named, reviewable work — a source card, a verified collection path, and a measured first run. Say which jurisdictions and opportunity families matter to you and we will tell you honestly what is already covered and what it would take.
