Lunch & Learn: Contract Ready-How to Win Goverment & Prime Contractor Work

This workshop is designed for small business owners and contractors who want to understand how to successfully compete for government contracts and prime contractor opportunities.

Participants will learn about the different types of contracts used by government agencies and large primes, including how they are structured, who they are best suited for, and what is required to qualify. The session will also provide insight into what procurement specialists look for when evaluating vendors—from compliance and documentation to experience, pricing, and reliability.

Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of how procurement decisions are made, how to position their business as contract-ready, and how to avoid common mistakes that prevent businesses from moving forward in the contracting process.

Who should attend?

• Construction workers and skilled tradespeople who want to turn their experience into more consistent, higher-value work
• Businesses pursuing government, city, or large commercial projects that require a capability statement
