Business Opportunities in Transportation featuring SBTRC, VDOT, & SBSD
The newly passed Infrastructure Bill is expected to expand access to tens of billions of dollars worth of federal, state, and local government contracts, including more than $37 billion through the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
The law also includes a historic procurement effort designed to support small businesses and tackle long-standing inequities in the contracting system. Among other things, the legislation directs DOT to attempt to award more than $37 billion in federal contracts to small disadvantaged business contractors.
Join us for this informative workshop on how to get ready to do business in the transportation industry. We will discuss:
- How small and diverse businesses can position themselves for business with government agencies and the private sector.
- How to navigate the small business certification programs and resources to help you grow your business
