A Checklist for Getting Started
The following list details the initial steps a firm needs to take to position itself to sell products and/or services to the Federal Government. Each step in the process costs nothing except for your time. Since your time is valuable, note that the process is much easier if you are using a high speed internet connection and if you can set aside a period when you can work without interruptions.
As you complete each step, be sure to record all the numbers and other data you get and keep them in a handy place for future reference!
If you are a member of SourceNC.com and need help in completing any of these steps, please contact Rick Gilmore at 866.873.1757 or by email today.
