8(a) Business Development Program Including SAM
To help provide a level playing field for small businesses owned by socially and economically disadvantaged people or entities, the government limits competition for certain contracts to businesses that participate in the 8(a) Business Development program. The federal government's goal is to award at least 5% of all federal contracting dollars to 8(a) certified small businesses each year.
At this workshop you will learn:
1) What the benefits are to being an 8(a) certified firm
2) If you qualify for the 8(a) program
3) About the 8(a) application process
This workshop is definitely for you if:
1) You want to take advantage of federal contracting opportunities
2) You have a service or product to sell to the federal government
3) Your business has two (2) years in operation
