Government Contracting Certifications for Small Businesses

Event description

One way a company can gain an advantage when bidding on government contracts is through certifications that restrict competition to only certain types of businesses. There are several certifications at all levels of the government – federal, state, and local – and this FREE webinar will focus on certifications at the federal level through the Small Business Administration and the state level through the State of California.

You will learn about the requirements, qualifications, and how to apply for the 8(a) Business Development Program. This program focuses on socially and economically disadvantaged businesses and is a unique certification that lasts for nine years and provides sole source opportunities (contracts that don’t compete) for 8(a) companies.
