Learn how to win that government contract your company is after, and how to manage it after the fact.

Most business owners are interested in pursuing government contracts. However, these companies are not equipped with the knowledge of how to successfully prepare to do business with the government. This presentation is designed for you to foster a thorough working knowledge of government contracts. This seminar will identify the best practices to employ in preparing your business to register in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov). We will explore the critical documents your company will need to be eligible to participate in government certification programs. Our presenter will review the different types of bid solicitations, the components of a Request for Proposal (RFP), and the best approach for successful contract management. You will develop an understanding of how to write a winning proposal. There will be discussions about contract compliance and contract quality standards. Ultimately, you will be poised to understand how to bid, win, and retain government contracts.
