The Simplified Acquisition Program Trains Businesses To Win Federal Contracts

By Celeste Osborne


Federal government contracting has offered millions of businesses an exciting and reliable source of revenue during even the most economically uncertain of times. Even during the recent recession when the private sector wasn't spending money, government demand for products and services was still going strong. For these reasons, thousands of businesses every month register for their shot at doing business with Uncle Sam. The federal market is highly competitive and can be very difficult to break into for an inexperienced firm. To help small businesses receive the same opportunities as established vendors, US Federal Contractor Registration has developed a strategy to enable any business to compete for contracts.

The very first thing businesses should do is evaluate their readiness for government contracting and the government's needs for their products or services. There are several resources that should be utilized in researching where your business fits in the federal market, including the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), FebBizOpps (FBO), USASpending.gov, and Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS).

Next, you will need to complete the paperwork necessary to register as a federal contractor. Yes, this will include getting a DUNS number and submitting your System for Award Manangement, or SAM registration. However, there are also optional registrations you shouldn't neglect just because they're not required. If your business is a small business according to the SBA, it would be wise to complete your DSBS profile. If you qualify for set asides or want to do business with particular agencies, you will likely need to complete additional registrations for these as well.

Finally, you'll need to develop an effective marketing strategy. The best strategy will include a combination of researching upcoming projects and opportunities as well as making purchasing officers aware of your company's offerings. It's easy for vendors to overlook this step, but it is the most important step in becoming a successful government contractor and skipping it is one of the top reasons why most businesses never win a single contract.

By taking advantage of these strategies and simplified acquisition procedures described in FAR Part 13, US Federal Contractor Registration has introduced the Simplified Acquisition Program. The program combines proven strategies with expert training and has generated millions of dollars in contract awards for small businesses new to federal contracting.

US Federal Contractor Registration provides business owners with all of the necessary materials to start winning these available simplified acquisition contracts. With the government spending over $400 billion every year, there are countless government contracts that can be won utilizing a US Federal Contractor Registration Simplified Acquisition Program.

The Simplified Acquisition Program Produces Results For Contractors

By Celeste Osborne


Every year, thousands of firms register to become new federal contractors, hoping to boost sales, develop reliable customer bases and stabilize their sales. Succeeding in the federal market can be tricky and will require a significant investment of time and resources. Luckily, by following a few simple steps, even inexperienced small firms can work their way to success in federal procurement.

The most important step is the first one; you should thoroughly evaluate whether your business is ready for government contracting and determine whether there is a market for your product or service within the federal government. This can be accomplished through several websites and online databases, including the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), FebBizOpps (FBO), USASpending.gov, and Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS). Firms that skip this important first step often find either little demand for their product or service or even worse - that they cannot meet the demand, thus ruining their reputation with federal buyers.

The next step is completing and filing all required registrations, as well as those that are optional but can give you a vital edge. You may already be aware that you need a DUNS number and will need to complete System for Award Management registration, or SAM, but there may be other registrations you're less aware of that can help you win contract awards. If your business is considered small by the SBA, don't forget to register in the DSBS, as this is where many contracting officers look for small businesses to award contracts to. Also, depending on your company's demographics, there may be other registrations you should complete, such as VetBiz.

The last step to ensure success is to build your marketing strategy. The most effective way to market to government buyers is a two part approach: research upcoming projects and network with purchasing officers. Many vendors skip this step, expecting that all they need to do is register and contracts will come rolling in. Unfortunately, vendors who make this assumption rarely win contracts and waste valuable time, money and resources while they wait. Even the US Small Business Administration recommends vendors adopt an "aggressive" marketing strategy in order to be successful and win contracts.

By taking advantage of these strategies and simplified acquisition procedures described in FAR Part 13, US Federal Contractor Registration has introduced the Simplified Acquisition Program. The program combines proven strategies with expert training and has generated millions of dollars in contract awards for small businesses new to federal contracting.

US Federal Contractor Registration, the world's largest third party registration firm, has helped thousands of small businesses successfully register to conduct business with the United States federal government. They offer a complete suite of services covering everything from initial SAM registration to GSA registration to marketing.

Want To Get Rich With Federal Contracting? Find Out About This Easy Secret To Success!

By Celeste Osborne


There are many lesser known tips and secrets to succeeding in federal contracting that many new vendors simply don't know about. One of the biggest secrets with the biggest potential profit potential is the Simplified Acquisition Program. Even some veteran contractors don't know about this easy way to break into the federal market and start making money!

The Simplified Acquisition Program is based upon the government contract rulings set forth in the Federal Acquisition Regulations. Simplified Acquisition contracts are government contracts that range in size between $2,500 and $150,000. However specific industries can be awarded simplified acquisition contracts that are worth up to $6.5 million.

Simplified Acquisition contracts help all kinds of businesses in the federal market: small, small disadvantaged, women-owned, veteran-owned, HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, and large firms all gain advantages through these kinds of contracts.

The Simplified Acquisition Program allows businesses to network with procurement officers to ask about their available solicitations and make real person-to-person connections. This is extremely important because most government agencies will not post contracts from time to time that range from $2,500 to $25,000 to FedBizOpps (FBO) or another federal bid board. Agencies will also use SMART Pay Cards, blank purchase agreements, miscellaneous purchase agreements, and even cash on simplified acquisition contracts. Normal bids are not given this much leeway because large contracts above the simplified acquisition threshold must be reported in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS). Being able to bid on government contracts that are not even released yet gives a business using the Simplified Acquisition Program a much needed leg up on their competition in the federal marketplace.

US Federal Contractor Registration's Simplified Acquisition Program has helped many vendors find success in federal contracting, generating millions of dollars in contract awards for small businesses including Mac Made Easy, Creative Tent International, Excel Concrete, Suburban Surgical Co., Inc, and Nancys I.T. Guy. Participation in the program provides customized service and support necessary to start winning federal contracts such as System for Award Management registration, a seven page website in the standard Federal Government format, branded domain name and hosting, search engine optimization, customized official government profile, monthly email bid notification and contract support.

Find Success Like Thousands Of Other Businesses Through Simplified Acquisition Program

By Celeste Osborne


Government Contracting can provide a steady income stream to small businesses, however it requires specialized skills and knowledge in order to succeed. US Federal Contractor Registration's Simplified Acquisition Program has been developed to provide all the things vendors need to break into the federal market.

Over $443 billion in contract awards were issued to private firms by the federal government during fiscal year 2014. Nearly any business can sell their product or service through federal contracting since the federal government does not produce anything on its own and must purchase everything it may require to fulfill its goals and processes. Laws and regulations also require purchasing officers to pay for any purchases or contracts fulfilled within a certain timeframe, so there is less uncertainty about receiving payment as there is with private sector contracts.

The downside to government contracting is how difficult it can be for inexperienced businesses to break into. GTPAC estimates that nearly a quarter of the 600,000 firms currently registered in SAM contain errors in their registration, which can result in disqualification from federal contracts or worse - fines and criminal fraud charges. In order to do business with the federal government, businesses must follow the rules and procedures laid out in the FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulations), a nearly 1900 page document of laws governing federal contracting.

To provide improved access to the benefits of federal contracting to more small businesses, US Federal Contractor Registration has unveiled their new Simplified Acquisition Program. This program, exclusively offered by USFCR, provides small businesses with everything they need to become a successful government contractor, start to finish.

The Simplified Acquisition Program includes a full evaluation examining the business's qualifications and federal contracting opportunities available, complete System for Award Management registration, creation of an official government profile in the Dynamic Small Business Search, monthly bid notification emails, contract support, complete government business plan, website creation in standard federal format, direct access to buyers and prime vendors, and comprehensive training for the Simplified Acquisition Environment.

US Federal Contractor Registration's Simplified Acquisition Program Earning Millions In Revenue For New Contractors

By Celeste Osborne


Every successful federal contractor keeps their strategy for success a well guarded secret. This makes it very difficult for newcomers to break into the federal market, usually leaving them to rely on hearsay and trial and error. One of the most closely guarded secrets to success is the Simplified Acquisition Program.

Simplified Acquisition rules, mandated by the Federal Acquisition Regulations, are the basis for the Simplified Acquisition Program. These rules define Simplified Acquisitions as having a value between $2,500 and $150,000. In some industries, however, these rules may apply to contracts as high as $6.5 million.

Simplified Acquisition contracts improve opportunities for small, small disadvantaged, women-owned, veteran-owned, HUBZone, and service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns to obtain a fair proportion of government contracts. While simplified acquisition contracts primarily help small businesses they can also offer large businesses another significant way of earning federal funds in government contracting.
