Webinar: Federal Contracting: SBS Profiles, Navigating SAM and Understanding NAICS/PSC Codes
The Federal Government buys over $600 billion per year on goods and services, 23% of that spend is allocated for small business. This is a huge opportunity for small firms to grow their business and become part of the challenging world of Government Contracting. Before entering this arena you must first create a profile in the System of Award Management (SAM) and the Small Business Search (SBS). This presentation will help you prepare your firm to get noticed by government and prime buyers by developing a proper SAM and SBS profile. In this session you will learn:
