Simplified Acquisition Program Gives Small Businesses The Tools To Win Big Federal Contract Awards

By Celeste Osborne


The world's leading third-party registration firm, US Federal Contractor Registration, has recently opened the door to contracting success for many inexperienced and small vendors through their revolutionary new training program, the Simplified Acquisition Program. This service provides businesses with all the tools and training they need to do business with the federal government and has already helped hundreds of small firms win billions of dollars in new contract awards.

The rules governing federal contracting, known as the Federal Acquisition Regulations or FAR, have set the simplified acquisition threshold between $2,500 and $150,000 for most transactions, however this may increase to up to $6.5 million depending upon the industry. Any contract valued within this threshold does not need to undergo a formal bidding process and may be subject to the "rule of 2" - where a purchasing officer need only call and obtain quotes from two eligible small businesses before awarding the contract.

The simplified procedure is much more similar to how everyday households may buy milk from the store or hire a gardener for their home. This makes it far easier for inexperienced or small firms to get their feet in the door when it comes to breaking into the federal market. These smaller projects are also perfect for any sized firm to complete, unlike the scaling problems encountered with larger, more complex contracting opportunities.

USFCR's Simplified Acquisition Program includes all the tools and training a business needs, without any previous contracting experience necessary. Their highly trained team of Acquisition Specialists and Case Managers will provide everything necessary to start winning contracts immediately, including a complete evaluation of eligibility for federal contracts, System for Award Management (SAM) registration, an official government profile in the Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS), bid notifications via email every month, comprehensive contract support, a full government business plan including direct access to buyers and prime vendors, website creation in the standard government format, and complete training for the simplified acquisition environment.

US Federal Contractor Registration's client, minority-owned small business Software Tech Enterprises has already been awarded over $4.2 million over 23 contract awards after their enrollment in the Simplified Acquisition Program. As an additional well earned distinction, Software Tech Enterprise was also recently awarded the 2015 DHS Small Business Achievement Award by the Department of Homeland Security and Security U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

For over five years, US Federal Contractor Registration , the world's most experienced third party registration firm, has become a leader in helping small businesses gain the knowledge and tools necessary to compete in the federal contracting market, providing services from initial SAM registration to full contract and marketing support.
