A working knowledge of how these procedures operate can help contractors identify more opportunities and compete more effectively for them.\nThis webinar provides a practical overview of the key concepts, regulations, and best practices that shape the simplified acquisition process. The agenda includes the following:\n\nOverview of Simplified Acquisitions: Understand the definition, scope, and benefits of simplified acquisitions for contractors and federal buyers.\nHistory of Simplified Acquisition Procedures: Explore the legislative acts that have shaped simplified acquisitions and discover the trends and data findings.\nRegulatory Landscape: Get a clear understanding of the regulations governing simplified acquisitions, including FAR Part 13, FAR Part 12, FAR Part 15, and more.\nKey Concepts in Simplified Acquisitions: Dive into the essential concepts, such as the simplified acquisition threshold, methods, and special procedures and exceptions.\nNavigating the Simplified Acquisition Process: Follow a step-by-step guide to identify opportunities, conduct market research, prepare proposals, and navigate the evaluation and award process.\nBest Practices for Success: Learn strategies for building relationships with contracting officers, tailoring proposals to agency needs, and effectively responding to non-procurement opportunities.\nUnderstanding the Assumptions, Deficiencies, and Pitfalls of SAP Data: Discover common pitfalls and learn how to navigate them when analyzing simplified acquisition data.\n\nThis session is designed to give participants a clear, comprehensive understanding of simplified acquisition procedures and how to apply them to their federal contracting efforts.\nTarget Audience: Small business owners, procurement specialists, project managers, government contracting consultants, and business development professionals.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]\n
