@bsdguy is 99% correct. Posting on FBO is a compliance issue. If you are in contact with that agency than you would know about the project prior to it's public release. Hence forecast list.
Score Contracts gotcha! I was depending on the LA PTAC rep to do the searches for me and send them to me daily via email. Being proactive ...I get it now! Light bulbs are going off with every video you put out. I am also reading the “Win Government Contracts for small business boom you recommended to me as well. Thanks for help!
Hi Eric, I regularly revisit your videos in order to try master my work. True Story, I was working on a government contract, teaching a 40 hour course in asbestos abatement. Midway through the training the contracting officer sent their contracting officer representative technical monitor to observe my training class. This person actually used a tape measure to measure my classroom, and found that the classroom was a couple feet shorter than the contract stipulation. At that point, the contraction officer stopped the training and voided the contract. This is so I'm so gun shy in submitting a proposal.
Lets say you won a govenment contract to sell pencils to the govenment. You bay a pencil from china for 1$. How much you gonna sell that pencil to the goverment ? (Approximately)
@@EricCoffie for example the contract have delivering time of 3 months, so i can buy that pencil for 1$ from china (1$ uncliding shipping), how much i can sell it to the government ?
Thank you for all the advice, already bought your book and signed up for your free course. I expect to work I do not mind working 12-16 hours a day without complaining however I still will like to have a mentor. Please guide me in the right direction.
I just registered my business name and now i am looking to get my TIN, as I am the only owner of the company, will the IRS issue me a TIN or I can use my SSN and do I file my tax separately? and what is disregarded Entity? Thank you for your help.
Thank you very much. My company is small and new but I am partnered with a more experienced company. I would love to talk with you about bidding. I deal in Petroleum and Gas products.
Adept sounds promising. Hit up Maria or I to discuss further. I have a student in a similar situation. maria@scorecontracts.com or eric@scorecontracts.com
Hello again, Eric, I'm in a space where I don't have enough credit to land a contract. My business of training is 95% intellectual property, and I don't need any supplier credit. I need straight business credit minimum of 100k. I've established a small amount of business credit, and if you look ip my company's profile on Dunn and Bradstreet it rates me as good. But, I need a number between 0 and 100, preferably 80 or above to get 100k or more. D&B wants me to pay them on a monthly basis a large sum of money to enroll in their credit boost program before they will release the score that you've generated. That's extortion.
@@EricCoffie Hello Eric, I'm not looking to buy anything. I need to show the contracting officers that I have the financial resources to complete the contract. I have to pay for firearms training for class sizes that are 10 and above, in conjunction with the Homeland Security Training that I've developed. I need to send employees to the Law Enforcement Training Center for advanced training. I will be able to invoice these cost along with travel expenses after I've paid for them. I will be able to get vendor credit, as you've already shown me, for extended stay accommodations, and car rentals. But, the remainder of my expense, I'm not able to do credit.
