Acquisition Hour: Responding to Sources Sought Request and Preparing Your Capabilities Statement

A Sources Sought notice is a market research tool that Contracting Officers use to determine the availability of specific capabilities in the marketplace.  Sources Sought are also used to determine if there are enough qualified small businesses able to perform to potentially set aside the specific requirement.  These Sources Sought are posted in beta.SAM.gov and provide businesses a significant opportunity to present their qualifications and capabilities to support a specific requirement.

Along with Sources Sought, this session will discuss developing a targeted Capabilities Statement to address specific needs in the government.

Well prepared responses to a Sources Sought or development of a focused Capabilities Statement are critical to successful review by the Government agency – especially in our current dynamic contracting environment.

This webinar will cover:

• What are Sources Sought Notices (SSNs) and Requests for Information ((RFIs)
• Locating SSNs and RFIs
• Preparing a focused response to SSNs and RFIs
• How to develop a targeted and effective Capability Statement

Speakers:

• Helen Henningsen, Wisconsin Procurement Institute
• Mark Dennis, Wisconsin Procurement Institute

This webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit.
