Do you know which federal agencies are buying those goods or services that your business is selling? Do you know where to look for this information? The information is posted for public review - you just need to know which database to look at and how the information is coded. Honestly, it's easier than it sounds! 

This webinar will guide participants in building effective search criteria using the classifications and keywords commonly employed by contracting staff. It will demonstrate how to apply these criteria to conduct targeted market research for upcoming solicitations and past contract activities through live demonstrations of tools such as Contract Opportunities (Sam.gov), the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS.gov), USASpending.gov, agency websites, procurement forecast websites, and DoD military budget websites. Attendees will also learn how to leverage the gathered information to make informed business decisions.
