      <description>I help my clients seek and, if they need or want the help, I help them pursue the government contracts.  I specialize in state &amp;#38; local government, quasi-governmental agencies (such as water development boards, municipal utility districts, river authorities), K-12 school districts, colleges and universities.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want additional information, I'd be happy to talk with you.&lt;br /&gt;

      <description>There are several "first steps" that you can take.  In the case of the Federal Government, check out the website www.fbo.gov - It lists all major government procurement actions including Requests For Proposals (RFPs) and Contract Awards.  Find out what is required to get on a GSA Schedule (that's one of those "vehicles" mentioned elsewhere in this string) for the service or product you offer.  Contact the Small Business Administration for information.  Most major government activities like military bases, supply depots, regional agency headquarters, etc., have Small Business Liaison Offices to assist you and offer advice on how to work for them.  When you look at the FedBizOps site, keep your eyes open for contract awards for work in your area where there might be subcontracting opportunities.  Contact large government contractors in your area - in recent years more and more federal contracts require significant percentages of work awarded include participation by the various categories of small businesses.</description>

      <description>They said that they could not release the name of the contractor that was awarded the contract. But when you call or email them they say that the jobs have already given out. I think that the MAN is trying to hold me down! (just kidding) By the time that it is posted the job is already in someones hands. They just need 2 more bids to make it legal. Isn't that nice.</description>

      <description>We are a small construction company. We specialize in structural steel, welding and hand rails on commercial jobs, but we also do dirt work and concrete. In most instances we can do a building turn key.</description>

      <description>I don't know who you talked to but you don't need Freedom of Information Acts to receive notices of RFPs issued by the State or any other government agency, they're required to post them on their website or other procurement site.</description>

      <description>Thanks! I've been told by the State Governor that they could not release that information. So Ive sent in numerous freedom of  information act notices. Ill try this and maybe this will help. Thanks again for the information</description>
