SUMMARY:Federal Small Business Certifications Managed by SBA
DESCRIPTION:About this event\n\n\nBefore you can start to conduct business with the federal government your business must obtain the proper certifications so you make maximum use of regulatory preferences under the Federal Acquisition Regulation. \nRSVP here. \nSmall business certifications are like professional certifications; they document a special capability or status that will help you compete in the marketplace. Unlike permits and licenses\, you do not need to obtain certifications to legally operate. \nHowever\, in order to take advantage of business opportunities at the federal level\, such as government contracts\, you may need to obtain some certifications. Federal\, state and local governments offer businesses opportunities to sell billions of dollars’ worth of products and services. \nMany government agencies require that some percentage of the procurements be set aside for small businesses. Certifying your business can definitely help you successfully compete for government contracts. We will discuss the eligibility and places to register as well as free assistance available to help you complete the process. \nPresenter: Ed Ramos is a Senior Area Manager with the U.S. Small Business Administration assigned to Central Florida.

SUMMARY:Working Capital Options for Government Contractors
DESCRIPTION:About this event\nRSVP here \n\n\nDescription: \nThe #1 challenge for all small businesses is access to flexible and affordable working capital. Given that government contractors face unique obstacles that require the use of financing prior to being paid for their work\, they are particularly vulnerable to both the cost to their bottom line and to their performance of the work if they are not properly informed of the options available to them at each stage of growth. \nIf you have ever missed a bid because you weren’t sure if you could finance the opportunity\, you don’t want to miss this discussion\, and learn what your options are for your cashflow needs! \nPresenter: Teresa Moon \nTeresa Moon joined the Parabilis team in late Fall 2020. She brings to the team her extensive experience in business development within government contracting\, marketing and branding\, relationship building and partnership management. Her impact is best recognized in her abilities to generate business opportunities within several industries through networking\, developing partnerships and understanding how to effectively create reciprocal referral relationships. Ms. Moon builds lasting relationships through loyal and trustworthy cooperation and commitment. \nShe is a consummate academic\, and began her career as a teacher both at the university and high school levels. She worked several years in B2B sales for a Fortune 100 company and led her Division in corporate partnership collaborations that resulted in sales. In 2018\, she reignited her professional career\, and devoted her efforts into business development in government contracting\, specifically within the simulation community in her hometown of Orlando\, FL. Her understanding of the contract award process is a necessary support to the small to mid-sized contractors Parabilis services. She has earned contracts within contract staffing and cyber security\, and is proficient in traditional RFP processes.
