Now is the time for you to do business with the Government!
The new set asides for women business owners started in February. Are you planning to get any of this business?
Attend this workshop and learn more about the WOMEN-OWNED SMALL BUSINESS (WOSB) PROGRAM – A Program of the Small Business Administration (SBA)
Women-owned small businesses can begin taking steps to participate in a new federal contracting program through the U.S. Small Business Administration. The Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Federal Contract Program provides greater access to federal contracting opportunities for WOSBs and economically-disadvantaged women-owned small businesses (EDWOSBs). The Program allows contracting officers, for the first time, to set aside specific contracts for certified WOSBs and EDWOSBs and will help federal agencies achieve the existing statutory goal of five percent of federal contracting dollars being awarded to WOSBs.
Don’t miss this opportunity to get the latest updates to the program and see how you can participate.
