About this opportunity
The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), through its Office of Small & Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU), is hosting a virtual First Friday's training webinar focused on subcontracting plans. The webinar, titled "How a Subcontracting Plan can benefit YOU!", will provide detailed insights into federal subcontracting requirements and opportunities. Scheduled for Friday, January 10, 2024, at 1 PM ET, the event is a free online training session open to all industry participants. The training will be presented by Helena Koch, a Small Business Specialist from GSA OSDBU Region 3. The webinar stems from Public Law 95-507 and subsequent legislative mandates that require large prime contractors receiving federal contract awards over $750,000 (or $1.5 million for construction) to establish subcontracting plans with specific goals.
The webinar's primary purpose is to educate contractors about subcontracting plans and their critical role in federal procurement preference programs. Participants will learn when a subcontracting plan is required, the mandatory components of such plans, and where to find guidance for developing comprehensive subcontracting strategies. The training will cover opportunities for small businesses, including veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, small-disadvantaged, and women-owned business concerns. Attendees must register online to receive a confirmation email with meeting details. The OSDBU aims to promote small business access to nationwide procurement opportunities and ensure small business participation in federal contracting. Additional resources and information can be accessed through GSA's website, social media channels, and by contacting OSDBU small business specialists. The event aligns with OSDBU's mission to advocate for small and disadvantaged businesses in the federal procurement landscape.
