Effective Capabilities Statements
Your capabilities statement is your company’s
resume. It is often the first contact you will have with Procurement Decision
Makers (PDM). Do you know what a Capabilities Statement is, or why it is so
important? Do you know the five key areas for your capabilities statement? If
your capabilities statement is the best way to get your foot in the door,
wouldn't you want it to provide your company’s information in the best, most
efficient way? This session defines what a capabilities statement is, why it is
used, how to create one for your small business, and the information you should
include in each of the five sections to effectively market your business to
PDMs.
The General Services
Administration (GSA) manages federal acquisition and awards processes in 10
online websites which are now being merged into one.
Responding to a Sources Sought
This course is designed to help Veteran-Owned
