Looking for a place to sell your products and services? The government has set up a website called FBO.gov which is the Federal Business Opportunities website. Federal Agencies post their solicitations (stuff they need to buy) on this website so that vendors can respond with information or proposals.
Before responding to a post, a vendor must have a DUNS number (Data Universal Numbering System). If you have already registered in SAM.gov then the information will be pulled into FBO.gov with just the DUNS number. There is also free help to assist vendors in this process through Procurement Technical Assistance Program or PTAP which is available in every state.
This database is very comprehensive and worth a look by any business to see if they can provide the product or service the government is looking to procure. There are thousands and thousands of listings for just about anything. We have seen solicitations for toilet paper, construction, software, cleaning services, ice machines, interpreter services and coveralls. We are sure what you have to offer is being sought. Check it out!
Please comment any tips on using FBO.gov for your business.
