It isn’t just about winning but about winning in the right ways, building partnerships, reputation, and proven success. Having watched this team’s recent award to support DHA NexGen Program Integrity Solution with partners at IBM and Ceenic Solution; its Tribility JV awarded OASIS + in SDVOSB and WOSB tracks; add a $10M VA task to enhance financial transparency and compliance with the DATA Act; recruit new Vice President, HHS SME Yessenia Castillo ; and partner with Freelancer to support its NASA NOIS2 Challenge contest, there was a lot to discuss in catching up with Ibility CEO and co-founder Danielle Krakora. What’s ahead? Read on.
Trusted Partner Ecosystem
Growing, diversifying and succeeding in GovCon is all about partners and Ibility is no different. “We wouldn’t be where we’re at today if it weren’t for our partners. Creating strong, trusting relationships with the partner ecosystem has been our key to the growth and success that we’ve had; being that trusted small business partner that can go in there and deliver.”
Committed Employees
Recognizing that dedicated employees are key to success, Ibility focuses on ensuring they feel supported, happy, and fulfilled in their roles and work environment. “We try really hard to stay on top of industry trends, listen to what our employees tell us they want, and then be very proactive, offering the best benefits, fun culture, and supportive environment where we can all collaborate and learn from each other.”
Starting with hiring individuals who share a commitment to the greater good and a passion for making a difference, Ibility’s approach fosters a culture of service that extends beyond their work to meaningful efforts to give back. As an active member of several nonprofit organizations, Danielle encourages the team to also support causes that are personally significant to them, creating opportunities for everyone to get involved. “We’re all in this together, not just at work but in the community as well,” she emphasizes.
Built on Relationships
Guided by a leadership team that is founded on a great relationship – Danielle and co-founder Ken Beecher – there is trust and compassion built into the very roots of this company and dating back long before the two decided to launch the company.
“I think that we’ve made a lot of strong choices over the last three years that have served us well, starting with the people that we surround ourselves with. Our partner ecosystem is tremendous, starting with our joint venture partners, Trilogy Federal. Sharing a similar culture, the opportunity to work with and learn from them has been amazing.”
Noting equally valuable relationships with large and small businesses, there is a camaraderie and true friendship that exists throughout their ecosystem. “We want to do business with people we like, respect, and have fun with.” From honing Ken’s golf game at the Annual PSI Charity Golf Outing or cheering on the Pittsburgh Steelers during a Monday Night Football game, the Ibility team is out there building authentic relationships with other GovCon partners, a key to their success.
Serving its Focus Community and Beyond
With a strong commitment to hiring Veterans, military spouses, and individuals deeply connected to supporting the VA mission, Ibility fosters a culture that celebrates both big and small victories. Grounded in a personal understanding of the Veteran community’s needs—both from a service delivery and employee perspective—Ibility remains dedicated to its mission of service and impact.
“As we grow, our mission is to cultivate the next generation of leaders who will carry forward Ibility’s commitment to being a safe, trusted, and empowering space where our team can thrive, collaborate, and excel. Our growth is purposeful, fueled by clear intention and strategic vision. In the coming year, we’re excited to unveil the work happening behind the scenes and show the world the impact of what we’ve been building together!”
