It's unfortunate that it takes a natural disaster to bolster business in the
government marketplace, but it's the truth. Sandy, our most recent destructive
visitor has left much of the northeast in ruins. Many state and local agencies
can purchase directly through the General Services Administration (GSA) when
disaster strikes, doing so enables closing the deal quickly and getting the
contract underway asap. President Obama said he doesn't want any red-tape to
slow down recovery projects. Timeliness is crucial, and the lengthy bid process
has to be circumvented to address the urgency. Sandy won't be the last storm to
pound us, we all know- there's more to come. Get in line now, if you are too
late to sell yourself for this recovery, position yourself to assist the
government next time. At this rate, next time is right around the corner.
