Why It Matters
Granicus LLC signed a new client registration with Capitol67 Strategies LLC on Nov. 6, with a registration date of Oct. 1. It lists the Energy/Nuclear and Environmental/Superfund issue areas, which appear on none of Granicus's earlier filings.
Capitol67 Strategies is the fourth outside firm on Granicus's record. Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck LLP filed a 2025 new client registration. Capitol Counsel LLC filed a new client registration on June 30. New Lantern LLC filed a second-quarter report. Capitol67 Strategies joins as an added firm alongside the two that reported in the third quarter.
By the Numbers
The registration carries a $0 filing amount. Capitol Counsel reported $50,000 in its third-quarter report, and New Lantern reported $30,000 in its third-quarter report. Capitol Counsel's second-quarter report listed $20,000.
The filing lists two lobbyists, Keith Pemrick and Andrew Robreno, each with the covered position Co-Founder/Managing Partner. Pemrick's member experience is Rep. Tim Holden (D-PA). Robreno's is Rep. Lloyd Smucker (R-PA), Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-VA), Rep. Patrick Meehan (R-PA), and Rep. Garret Graves (R-LA). Neither appears on Granicus's earlier filings.
Broader Context
Granicus announced Federal Experience Cloud on April 22, which it describes as a FedRAMP-authorized digital-engagement and analytics platform for federal agencies.
Congress.gov lists the FIT Procurement Act (H.R. 4123) as passed by the House on July 20 and referred to the Senate the next day. It raises the simplified-acquisition threshold from $250,000 to $500,000.
Congress.gov also lists the Modernizing Government Technology Reform Act (H.R. 2985), which would reauthorize the Technology Modernization Fund through 2032. The House Oversight Committee ordered it reported on Feb. 4, and the Congressional Budget Office estimated on July 30 that it would increase direct spending by $300 million over 2026 to 2036.
Competitive Landscape
Winner Water Services Inc. hired Continental Strategy LLC on Nov. 5 to lobby on environmental/superfund, natural resources and fuel/gas/oil.
Southwest Power Pool Inc. hired Williams & Jensen PLLC on Nov. 5 to lobby on energy/nuclear and utilities.
The Bottom Line
Granicus now has a third firm working for it at once and a lobbying agenda that extends beyond the technology issues of its earlier filings.
