authority to buy goods valued at $25,000 or less,
with higher values for services.

may be identified through networks and research
as well as various federal supplier registration
systems.

important
Access
Competition

and agencies to learn about what
directions their department's
procurement may be heading.

responsible for your particular good
or service know what you have to
offer.
• To distinguish yourself from the
crowd.
6. 6
Know Your Business and Know
Your Clients

needs?

requirements subject to trade agreements.
• Lists all current and past notices of
procurement.
• Suppliers do not need to register, data is able
to be browsed and searched through powerful
