Good morning,
Take a limited number of federal acquisition employees with a late annual budget of $450 billion, add $787 billion in stimulus spending, then complicate with an exponential requirement to spend the money as fast as you can. Results? An unprecedented opportunity to build buisness and help the government function.
This is your tax dollars at work, so why would you not want to participate and provide the services or products the government needs? This is a rare opportunity for every type of business including construction and every subcontractor possible, information technology, staffing, risk management, communications, environmental, security, services, printing, products, office equipment, design, emergency services, first responders, and others, becasue virtually every product and service imaginable will be used. Over 812 contracts have already hit the streets--with 155 awarded to date. Every day more opportunites are listed, are you positioned to win any of this business?
If you are established in the federal market, you must act now (and not wait!) to position your firm for opportunities. If you are not yet established as a government contractor, you must start today to achieve a foothold and open the door for contract opportunities.
Those who wait will lose. Those who act now will open doors to unheard of opportunities.
Take a look at the events listed below--pick one and show up! If that is inconvenient, visit our web site for the schedule of upcoming teleconferences--you do not even have to leave your office to take advantage of all of this valuable information.
Here's to your success~~

GSA Contractor Fails to Offer Government Best Price and MUST Pay $128 Million Judgment
 If you are a GSA contractor or want a GSA Schedule, pay heed to this warning: offer the government your best price or risk a huge lawsuit, and possibly jail.
"Pricing issues are fairly common in government contracts," a spokesman for GSA's office of the inspector general said. "When a company fails to let the government know that prices have come down during a contract, and continues charging higher prices, it can result in what has happened in this case."
