About the event

Last year the Federal Government of the United States spent over 1/2 of a trillion dollars on goods and services.  State and local entities spent an additional 1.8 trillion dollars in the aggregate for similar goods and services.

Come learn about the basics of getting started in this $2+ trillion dollar public sector market. Learn about registering in the System for Award Management (SAM) and how the government procures goods and services.  We will also discuss marketing tips and opportunities for small businesses.

Join the NW Texas PTAC as we cover the basic steps every potential supplier to the public sector should know.  We’ll address such topics as:

  • Registering in SAM
  • How the federal government buys
  • Socioeconomic set-asides
  • State of Texas Purchasing basics
  • And much more...

Speaker:  Rich Lyles, Program Director of the Northwest Texas Procurement Technical Assistance Center (Soon to be the Northwest TX APEX Accelerator Center)
