Learn How Your Business Can Work with the Government at Doing Business 2.0

May 18, 2011

Both the federal and District government highly favor local DC businesses when contracting is necessary, which yields an abundance of opportunities for large and small companies to do business with various government agencies.  Each of these agencies has an office or administration that performs all commercial contracting, as well as special programs for small economically disadvantaged businesses.  Join us on Wednesday, June 15 for our Doing Business 2.0 seminar to learn more about contracting and certification programs that are provided by both federal and District entities to businesses in DC.

Antonio Hunter, Director of the District Small and Local Business Development will provide information on the process and benefits of becoming a Certified Business Enterprise (CBE).  James Staton, Chief Procurement Officer at the DC Office of Contracting and Procurement, will discuss the local business contract procedure and how to obtain opportunities as a CBE.  Shaunta P. Johnson, Director of the Small Business Utilization Center at the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), will go over the federal certified business procurement process.
