PHOENIX — The State University of New York (SUNY) Oswego is launching a series of five workshops on government contracting.
The workshops begin Feb. 2 at the SUNY Oswego Phoenix Center. The school is partnering with the New York State Small Business Development Center on the initiative.
The federal government awards more than 11 million contracts every year, but less than 5 percent of businesses in the U.S. win government work, according to SUNY Oswego. A significant share of those contracts is reserved for small and mid-size companies.
The workshops will cover topics including how to find government opportunities, marketing to government agencies, and preparing necessary documentation. The sessions will take place from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Phoenix center on Thursdays beginning Feb. 2.
