ANNOUNCEMENTS
Welcome to Fiscal Year 2025! From 1-3 October 2024 I posted my observations on Fiscal Year 2024 in LinkedIn. Here are the observations:
1. We had several instances where woman-owned businesses and service-disabled businesses were not properly certified by the Small Business Administration. All WOSBs/SDVOSBs must go to www.sba.gov to ensure they are compliance with current policies.
2. Several businesses provided proposals, but their System for Award Managment record was expired. Businesses must go to www.sam.gov to ensure their record is current.
3. HUBZone participation. We had very few proposals from Historically Underulitized Business Zone businesses. Not sure why, but we need more HUBZone participation in FY25.
4. Look for the updated Long Range Estimate in December 2024. This will give your business insight into service contracts coming up for re-compete in FY25.
