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.
