Government Contract Factoring in Texas
Government agencies are among the most creditworthy customers a business can have, but their payment process can be slow. Invoices pass through acceptance, approval and payment systems before funds are released, and a missing signature or form can add weeks. Meanwhile you are paying employees, subcontractors and suppliers to keep performing.
Government contract factoring advances most of the value of approved invoices to federal, state, county and municipal agencies. Federal receivables usually require the Assignment of Claims Act process, which involves notice to and acknowledgment by the contracting officer before payments are redirected. State and local contracts may have their own rules, so we review each contract's terms with you before funding.
- Advances typically 80% to 90% on approved agency invoices
- Factoring limits from $100K to $100M for larger awards
- Approval leans on the agency's payment strength, not your years in business
- No start-up fees and no month-to-month contracts
- Pairs well with contract financing for new awards

Factoring vs. a Traditional Business Loan
A newly awarded contract can be larger than your existing credit facilities. Here is how factoring the agency's invoices compares with borrowing against your own balance sheet.
| Feature | Government Contract Factoring | Business Loan |
|---|---|---|
| Basis for approval | The agency's payment reliability and your contract terms | Your credit history, collateral and financial statements |
| Size of funding | Grows with the invoices the contract generates | Capped by what your balance sheet supports |
| Time to set up | Depends on contract review and any required assignment notices | Often several weeks of underwriting |
| Repayment | Settled when the agency pays the invoice | Fixed monthly payments regardless of agency timing |
| Fit for new contractors | Often workable even without a long financial history | Usually harder without several years of returns |
Perform on the Contract Without Draining Reserves
Winning an award is only the start. Mobilizing staff, buying materials and meeting reporting requirements all cost money before the first invoice is approved. Factoring turns accepted invoices into working capital so the contract can fund its own performance.
Pricing is a small percentage of each invoice, generally 1% to 5%, with rates starting at 1.2%, quoted in writing before you commit. Because agency payment timing can vary, we will talk through realistic timelines for your specific agency. If you have not yet invoiced and need help buying materials, purchase order financing may also be worth a look.
