Win at Everything.
You understand requirements, evaluation criteria, and competitive positioning. You've built capture plans, written winning proposals, and managed pipelines worth millions. You know what it takes to outmaneuver the competition and deliver results that matter.
But winning contracts is only part of the equation. You also need to advance your career, prepare your teams for high-stakes presentations, and modernize your proposal operations to stay competitive.
Most professionals in business development, capture, and proposal management handle these challenges alone—without the targeted support, practical tools, or industry-specific expertise they need to succeed.
That changes here.
What Kanda Does
Kanda Consulting, Inc. serves business development, capture, and proposal professionals at every level—from individuals advancing their careers to organizations transforming how they compete for contracts. Founded by Anatalia Macik, an award-winning proposal operations leader with decades of industry experience, we bring the same strategic rigor to your professional growth and organizational performance that you bring to your work.
We operate at the intersection of career development, proposal excellence, and practical innovation. We understand government contracting because we work in it every day. We know what gets you promoted, what wins presentations, and what makes proposal teams faster without sacrificing quality.
Our Services
Career Coaching
Structured programs for BD, capture, and proposal professionals at critical career moments—whether you're preparing for a performance review, interview, or promotion conversation, or positioning yourself for executive-level roles. We deliver mock interviews, negotiation scripts, positioning frameworks, and accountability systems that work past the coaching period.
Target audience: Mid-career professionals and high performers ready to advance, with particular focus on women of color who face systemic barriers to career coaching in this male-dominated industry.
Proposal Development & Strategy
End-to-end support for organizations determining the right proposal, business development, and capture structure—then implementing it. We help you build winning strategies before the RFP drops, transform those strategies into compliant responses, and create proposal operations that scale.
Target audience: Government contractors, B2G companies, and B2B firms pursuing complex proposals who need proven methodologies adapted to their specific organizational needs.
AI Implementation for Proposal Teams
Four-week programs that help proposal teams adopt artificial intelligence tools without sacrificing quality or compliance. We assess your current processes, design custom workflows, build AI prompt libraries with quality controls, train your team, and establish performance tracking systems that demonstrate value.
Target audience: Proposal operations leaders who need to modernize their processes but don't know which AI tools to use, how to integrate them, or how to get their teams to adopt them.
Oral Coaching & Presentation Preparation
One-on-one and group coaching for teams preparing government oral presentations, technical demonstrations, video proposal submissions, and commercial client pitches. We manage the preparation process, align your presentation to evaluation criteria, develop clear slides, refine your scripts, and coach you through Q&A scenarios.
Target audience: BD, capture, and proposal teams competing for contracts where oral presentations determine winners—particularly teams who need to move from anxious to prepared, and from generic to compelling.
Who We Serve
Organizations competing for contracts that need proposal expertise, modern tools, and teams prepared to deliver winning presentations.
Women of color in government contracting who are less likely to receive or seek professional coaching, despite consistently delivering results.
Proposal operations leaders who need to modernize their processes without disrupting what already works.
What Makes Kanda Different
We don't offer motivational content or abstract theories. We deliver structured programs with concrete deliverables: career frameworks, proposal workflows, AI prompt libraries, presentation scripts, and performance tracking systems.
You won't find generic consulting advice here. You'll find practical skills that move careers forward, win contracts, and transform operations—taught by practitioners who've done this work, coached these teams, and understand these barriers firsthand.
Whether you need to prepare for a high-stakes interview in three weeks, implement AI tools in four weeks, coach your team for an oral presentation, or build capture and proposal operations that scale, we meet you where you are and build on your existing strengths.
