FAQ
Who evaluates my registrations?
Contracting Officers, Program Managers, Small Business Advocates, Prime Contractors…Anyone making a buying decision within the federal contracting market is going to review your organization’s federal registrations as a way to evaluate and grade you. In order to compete, you must have a solid foundation. That starts with your federal registrations.
What is my biggest risk?
Your biggest risk is completing your federal registrations without professional support. Why? Because the federal contracting market is extremely competitive. You will be competing against companies with significant experience, past performance, and skill. The only way to compete in this market is to ensure every aspect of your approach is results-oriented, starting with your federal registrations. Only with professional guidance can you be sure you are competitive.
When do buyers review registrations?
Buyers review registrations at different times for different reasons. They use them to find vendors for micro-purchase (credit card) orders. They conduct required market research to find new and/or small businesses. They use them to evaluate an organization prior to award. Evaluations and decisions are made at the beginning, middle, and final stages of federal acquisitions.
Where do buyers look?
At certain stages of every federal acquisition, government buyers are required to conduct market research. Among other places, they typically refer to the System for Award Management (SAM) and Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS) to conduct this research. If your profiles are not optimized, you risk either being (a) not visible, or (b) not competitive.
Why is optimization important?
1 in 5 registered businesses is currently considered ineligible for government contracts because of mistakes or omissions in their registrations. Of 600+ federally registered organizations recently surveyed by American Express regarding federal contracting, 87% stated they’ve never won a contract. The average small business spends between $60,000 and $138,000 in pursuit of their first federal contract victory. Federal registration optimization is the first step in ensuring you are not included in any of these three statistics.
How do I ensure I’m competitive?
To be competitive, your organization must be committed to taking a results-oriented approach to every aspect of your federal contracting market strategy. Being competitive for federal contracts requires more than just optimized registrations. However, if your registrations are error free, complete, and visible, your foundation for success will be strong. Competitiveness starts with your registrations.
