🧨🧨ALL COURSES WILL BE A LA CARTE AFTER NOVEMBER 1ST 💎🙌🚀Government Contracting Course for businesses wanting more sales and small business contracts 🚀🚀 govconeric.com/597 Up to $500 FREE videos included with this offer 🧨🧨
*The perfect realistic video.* I'm an Information Technology specialist of 18 years. I just a finished my first 5/mo 60k contact I got on my own. Now I'm working with SBA.
Thanks for the awesome insights that you are sharing to the public Eric. I used to work for the Air Force active duty in the contracts function, then switched to industry to work as a contracts manager and now starting my own gov contracts consulting company. Everything you are saying is on point and very effective tactics. Keep doing what you are doing! 🤙🏽
Advice I received from a CEO of a $100MM/yr revs DoD contractor regarding the 8(a) program was: keep that powder dry until you can use it properly and benefit from it. Meaning, it is a 9 year program and many people jump into it assuming they will automatically win contracts, but that is not how it works. Great video as usual.
I've said that in many videos, but it's hard for people not to follow the herd even if they're being steered in the wrong direction. Thanks for confirming.
Awesome video..... I am in the carrier transportation industry. Can you show an example on winning a contract or solicit the awards for pricing, Very educationalThanks Eric
So, even if I don’t do what they’re asking but can setup what they want through hiring other companies can I get contracts? Like for example they’re asking for a company to construct a building, can I get the contract and pay several construction companies to build it and I keep the spread. Wondering 🤔 hope to here an answer soon 😃
Hey man, I'm 22 going to school for computer science. I'm hoping I'll be able to build some sort of IT business where I can get contracts from the government eventually. Thanks for all of the great content you put out.
Congrats!! That is awesome. Will you be willing to share your story with us at scorecontracts? If so please email me at maria@scorecontracts.com. Hope to hear form you.
Where would one find a company like yours to work for? Learning how all of this works is very interesting, and I’d definitely look into this field of work further!
Hello, i was wondering if you could send a direct link to the live contracts, i am very new to this and i am one of those people who have recently seen the movie war dogs, and is really interested in doing something like that with the military, but at a smaller scale. Thank you.
Hi John! Really enjoying the wealth of info you are sharing, I am Minority who owns a moving company , are their opportunities for me with government contracts?
Hi Eric. I am the visionary of The Pink Construction Group, LLc that will be launched 1/6/20. I find construction projects for minority owned/women owned projects. Am I am to benefit from this info. I have had the opportunity to provide leads to two female contractors that has gotten the project and start January 2020. So I do not do the work obviously. I have over 10 yrs experience in recruiting, staffing, consulting, and providing leads in the construction industry. So I have decided to began my own and would like to work mostly with women-owned/minority owned contractors in every area not just military. Any recommendations please.
Wow with your 10 years of experience you should be extremely successful. However, I would caution that construction can be litigious which is why I warn people that it is not enough to be good at delivering your goods and services. You may have to chase dollars which is why I personally stick to federal contracts.
Thank you for this information i learned a lot, i am new into contracting. I work as contract specialist and this video taught me things i never knew before. I really hope to learn more. Thank u so much for being so generous. This will help me more efficient with my work.
Hi Eric, I'm doing a research paper on black owned vs white owned businesses getting federal contracts. Would you be able to talk to me about your experience in the federal business world? Thank you
I apologize if this is a stupid question, but I have a tshirt company. Do you think there are contracts available for t-shirts? I do alot event related shirts
i have a pending application on SAM but i haven't filed taxes for my business in 2 years. What all is needed to qualify for these contracts or to sub under a contractor?
Thanks for the video! One of my colleagues just turned me on to a NAVFAC contract that was just awarded in the $99M range. Why was something like this not posted on FBO?
Thats because only 50% of contracts are open market. None of my contracts are ever posted on FBO. www.scorecontracts.com/2017/07/14/non-competitive-contracts-top-40-in-the-federal-arena/
I'm a creative director with a agency looking for larger and more consistent clients. Looking forward to access to gov contracts. Thank you for the insight..
Thanks for this. How long, in your experience, does it take from fulfillment of contract terms to full payment by the government? Is there a major risk of non-payment or late payment?
+Christian Rubio the terms vary by contract and the way they buy it. Sometimes they pay on CC which can be instantly. Products 30 days after invoicing, construction 15 - 30 days progress payment. Depends on job type and agency.
I know that we were impacted due to Irma, but you should have received an autoresponse immediately. Did you check your SPAM folder? Email me please info@scorecontracts.com
Eric Coffie maybe drop shipping wasn’t the right term but I was under the impression that brokering on fbo (especially with arms and ammunition) was a common practice?
Great Information, I own an LLC with my sister and we are looking into Government Contracting. What is the specific professional title of someone that can look over our profile to ensure we have all our ducks in a row to move forward with applying for bids on FedBiz.Gov
Score Contracts so you don’t have to have a Dunn and Bradstreet number to bid? I thought there were a few things you had to have in place. I’m truly interested like the young lady above.
If you are there. Find opportunities there that we can do and partner with an American firm here. If you agree to manage the project you'll surely find success.
let me ask u this. as a businessman to maximize your hands in gaining money. why not also take the wheel for people that have every thing set up and get the contacts for them and take a percentage from the awarded contracts.
To be truthful getting the contract is the easy part. Executing is the hard part. The closest I can offer is to join Govcon Giants where I will teach and mentor all SC members. freegovconcourse.gr8.com
I wonder, can any international company participate for all these tenders? For example: I have registered IT company and would like to win tenders in FBO.gov, if yes tell me how do I contact you. Thank you
+Albert Peters yes of course. The Dept of State, SOCOM and US Army Corps handles many international transactions. They are called OCONUS projects. Look them up in FBO.
I am a Veteran living in Germany. I recently gormed my LLC but now I'm unsure where to go from here and also am I even allowed to bid on federal contracts overseas?
I would ask for a referral from someone who's already in my respective industry. They can recommend affordable companies. There is no one size fits all.
Cool trick re: 33* zip codes. The information and data underlying FBO must be a in a set of flat database tables. Does anyone have experience doing, or even thought about, downloading the underlying databases and accessing it via SQL, instead of this reporting portal? This has to be possible if this data is public, I think. Just curious. Anyone with a thought, feel free to message me. Would love to chat.
I am sure that is how the large companies aggregate the information and then resell it to the general public. Companies like BidSync who do the data mining.
I want to make business with US bases at Iraq.Also Sirya if allowed. but I don't have the key for it. I can't find the place to get these contracts. so if you have any Idea for my problem please let me know. Also I want to update my SAM and my company registered in Iraq. Is that possible ?

thank you i think i'm gonna go the sub route have you ever been the prime?

Yes 100% lookup the corresponding NAICS code and start your research.

Lookup my video, does the government buy what I sell, watch it, do it and you'll find where all the sewing contracts are.
@@EricCoffie Thank you Eric for responding I really appreciate it. I was so surprised to receive a reply from you so quickly.
Is there any way I can contact you? It's a great video but I still have some doubts
clarity.fm/ericcoffie
How do i provide the products they need and ask for??
My free course walks you through all of that. www.freegovconcourse.com
Has the website location moved, because I tried to pull it up and it looks completely different than what your using
Yes it is not beta.sam.gov .. but the concepts are the same.
Any advice for someone trying to do something kinda like drop shipping with this website, such as finding a supplier and posting a bid
Finding a supplier and posting a bid doesn't work in the federal arena. The market chooses buyers based on qualifications first not just price.
Eric Coffie maybe drop shipping wasn’t the right term but I was under the impression that brokering on fbo (especially with arms and ammunition) was a common practice?
Great Information, I own an LLC with my sister and we are looking into Government Contracting. What is the specific professional title of someone that can look over our profile to ensure we have all our ducks in a row to move forward with applying for bids on FedBiz.Gov
What profile do you want that person to look over? If you are registered in SAM than you are okay to bid federal jobs on FBO.
Score Contracts so you don’t have to have a Dunn and Bradstreet number to bid?
I thought there were a few things you had to have in place. I’m truly interested like the young lady above.
@@LifeTrucking You need those things to register in SAM.
I just have one question, if I wanted to start my defense company, what structure would I pick to incorporate it? LLC? S corp? Thanks for replying!
My email list helps to answer these questions: subscription.gr8.com I recommend LLC.
Do you get, a portion of the contract value, in dollars at the start of the beginning of the job?
No
