CAPABILITY CARD · Healthcare

The Optometrists capability card.

One link that proves what you do — the work, the tools, the market, and the path to better contracts.

There are 42,790 optometrists in the U.S. The ones who win the work a buyer actually budgets for don't hand over a flat PDF — they send a living capability card. Built and maintained by our New Jersey team.

What your card proves

The work a buyer needs to see at a glance.

A client or contracting officer scanning ten optometrists wants fast proof you actually do the work. These are the core duties O*NET ties to your field — your capability card turns them into scannable proof points instead of a wall of text.

Duty 01
Examine eyes, using observation, instruments, and pharmaceutical agents, to determine visual acuity and perception, focus, and coordination and to diagnose diseases and other abnormalities, such as glaucoma or color blindness.
Duty 02
Analyze test results and develop a treatment plan.
Duty 03
Prescribe, supply, fit and adjust eyeglasses, contact lenses, and other vision aids.
Duty 04
Prescribe medications to treat eye diseases if state laws permit.
Duty 05
Educate and counsel patients on contact lens care, visual hygiene, lighting arrangements, and safety factors.
Duty 06
Remove foreign bodies from the eye.
Where you stand

A real market — compete on proof, not price.

Nationally, 42,790 optometrists earn a median of $136,570 a year (BLS OEWS, May 2024). In a market that size, the businesses that win the better work don't lead with the lowest number — they lead with a credible, current capability card. That's exactly what we build.

The government-contracting edge

Where the steady budgets actually are.

Federal agencies obligated $5.1B in Offices of Physicians (except Mental Health Specialists) contracts in FY2024 (USAspending.gov). When a contracting officer or prime sizes up a small business, a living capability card — cert status, NAICS coverage, SAM registration, core offerings, all current — is exactly what they expect to see. We build yours to land in that lane.
