Getting Started: U.S. Consultants
U.S. consulting firms should check the Business Opportunities section of USTDA's website regularly where you can see what opportunities with USTDA and its grant recipients are open for bid. You can recieve a biweekly email with links to these opportunities, as well as information on upcoming deal-making events, by subscribing to USTDA's free eNewsletter.
If you are a small business, your next step is to sign-up on the USTDA On-Line Consultant Database. USTDA uses this database to select consultants for desk study contracts. All firms interested in contracting opportunities with USTDA must register with the U.S. Government's Central Contractor Registration database (www.ccr.gov).
