New Vendors Find Federal Contracting Success With Usfcr's Simplified Acquisition Program

By Celeste Osborne


US Federal Contractor Registration recently introduced a new federal marketing program, the Simplified Acquisition Program, which has resulted in new found success for small business contractors since its inception. This revolutionary new program has already netted billions of dollars in revenue through contract awards for new, inexperienced vendors in just a short period of time.

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.

The Simplified Acquisition Program gives both large and small businesses the tools they need to succeed in a saturated contracting market. The program includes a comprehensive contracting-readiness evaluation, registration in the System for Award Management (SAM), official government profile creation for the Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS), monthly email bid notification, contract support, complete government business plan with 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.
