Government Contracting
Government agencies offer businesses the opportunity to sell billions of dollars worth of products and services. Many government agencies require that some percentage of the procurements be set aside for small businesses. This guide provides information that explains how to become a federal contractor, how to find business opportunities, and the rules and regulations that federal contractors need to follow.
The emphasis of this guide is on doing business with agencies in the Executive Branch of the federal government. Agencies in the Legislative and Judicial branches have their own, yet comparable, contracting procedures and requirements.
