SUMMARY:Acquisition Hour: Responding to Sources Sought Request and Capabilities Statements
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION FOR WEBINARS WILL CLOSE 24 HOURS BEFORE THE START \nA Sources Sought notice is a market research tool that Contracting Officers use to determine the availability of specific capabilities in the marketplace.  Sources Sought are also used to determine if there are enough qualified small businesses able to perform to potentially set aside the specific requirement.  These Sources Sought are posted in beta.SAM.gov and provide businesses a significant opportunity to present their qualifications and capabilities to support a specific requirement. \nAlong with Sources Sought\, this session will discuss developing a targeted Capabilities Statement to address specific needs in the government. \nWell prepared responses to a Sources Sought or development of a focused Capabilities Statement are critical to successful review by the Government agency – especially in our current dynamic contracting environment. \nThis webinar will cover: \n\nWhat are Sources Sought Notices (SSNs) and Requests for Information ((RFIs)\nLocating SSNs and RFIs\nPreparing a focused response to SSNs and RFIs\nHow to develop a targeted and effective Capability Statement\n\nSpeakers Helen Henningsen and Mark Dennis\, WPI \nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit. \nView a schedule of all upcoming webinars.

SUMMARY:Acquisition Hour:  Learning About the Surety Bond Guarantee From the U.S. SBA
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION FOR WEBINARS WILL CLOSE 24 HOURS BEFORE THE START \nFailure to provide required contract bonds can result in an offeror being excluded from competition or a contractor being terminated for default! \nRequired contract bonds often include Bid Bonds\, Performance Bonds\, and Payment Bonds. The Federal Government will require that offerors provide Bid Bonds for any contract that requires Performance and Payment Bonds. Performance and Payment Bonds are generally required for federal construction contracts that exceed $150\,000. In addition\, Payment Bonds may be needed for federal construction contracts between $35\,000 and $150\,000. \nUnfortunately\, small businesses sometimes have a difficult time qualifying for\, and obtaining\, such bonds in the standard marketplace. Join us in this webinar and learn about the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Surety Bond Guarantee Program and how the SBA can help you obtain the needed contract bonds at reasonable prices\, terms\, and conditions. \nSpeaker: Tamara Murray\, Underwriting Marketing Specialist\, Small Business Administration (SBA)\, Office of Surety Guarantees \nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit. \nTo view a schedule of all upcoming webinars CLICK HERE.
