Webinar - How a Subcontracting Plan can benefit YOU!

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), Office of Small & Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) is hosting its monthly virtual First Friday’s training titled “How a Subcontracting Plan can benefit YOU!”. This 1-hour webinar is free and open to all of industry. Join GSA OSDBU for a review of all required parts of a government subcontracting plan. Subcontracting allows small and disadvantaged businesses to substantially impact the federal procurement preference programs.

The federal government helps small businesses get an opportunity to subcontract on federal prime contracts.

Pursuant to Public Law 95-507, and subsequent legislative mandates, large prime contractors receiving Federal contract awards valued over $750,000 ($1.5 million for construction) are required to establish plans and goals for subcontracting with small businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, HUBZone small businesses, small-disadvantaged businesses and women-owned small business concerns. More information on the government's subcontracting program can be found under the Federal Acquisition Regulations Subpart 19.7.
